Petition to Singapore Athletes

Hi everyone,

I just signed the petition "Fellow Masters Athletes: Petition to Singapore Athletics" and wanted to see if you could help by adding your name.



The purpose of this petition is to stop Singapore Masters Athletes, SMA, an affiliate of World Masters Association, WMA, to impose unacceptable regimentation on senior masters athletes to attend compulsory centralised training or else not allowed to participate in WMA competitions like the World Masters and Asian Masters competitions, the latter will be held in Kuching this December.


SMA's requirement is that the masters athletes must attend 75% of their centralised training, held twice a week. No country in the world imposed this on their masters athletes.

Not only that the seniors, 60s, 70s and 80s and above did not have the time, neither would they have the energy and vitality to attend such trainings that the WMA does not required. Participation in WMA events is already a great achievement for the seniors. We are amateur athletes, not young professionals that do this for a living. 

This whole centralised training is simply a CRAZY idea from the unthinking.

Our goal is to reach 100 signatures and we need more support. You can read more and sign the petition here:

Thanks!

  2. Aiyo, even our Gold Medalist Marathoner Soh also sued them.

    Just because he critised them.

    For them or against them.. Balls carriers will always be rewarded.

  3. Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) chief Chee Soon Juan on Sunday (Aug 4) continued to call for opposition parties here — including the Workers’ Party (WP) — to form an alliance with Dr Tan Cheng Bock at the helm, lest a “disparate” opposition proves costly in the next General Election (GE).

    “As long as the opposition remains disparate and remotely bunched, we are not going to win the confidence of voters,” the 57-year-old said to the media on the sidelines of a walkabout at the Yuhua Village Market and Food Centre in Jurong East.

  5. When you are already Ah Kongs and Ah Mahs and enjoying your sports and paying for your own expenses, the last thing you want is for some idiots to tell you that you have to go for compulsory training or else you cannot participate.

    For more than 40 years this has been going on smoothly and happily and now this. They also forbid the Ah Kongs and the Ah Mahs to bring their families with them, have to stay separately.

    What cow shit is this? The WMA encourages everyone to participate, the more the merrier. It is living life to the fullest as seniors, enjoying the participation, well being and fellowship.

    Only silly boys would think of forcing the Ah Kongs and Ah Mahs to go for centralised training.

    Sinkies cannot get support lah, but Sinkies can learn from them.

    For a start, why not have a massive, peaceful protest legally against PAP at Hong Lim Park first.

    Can or not?

    Oh I forgot even Chee Soon Juan did not organise any street protests for a long time already, so if Chee Soon Juan cannot, that means cannot lah. Even Gilbert Goh who organised many Hong Lim Park rallies also no sight no sound and for a long time also. So I think really cannot lah.

    Gilbert Goh went overseas to help other countries lah.

    Why waste time and energy on Hong Lim Park rallies when PAP will still win big big anyway?

    As for Chee Soon Juan, why waste time and energy on street protests when SDP still continue to lose jialat jialat every election and even by election?

  12. Uncle, go and get a check up beforeyou start running again lah.

    I don't want you to suddenly drop dead and some poor young things gotta perform cpr on you. You sure like that won't you?

    If you no longer around who is going to write nonsense to tickle us with your rants.
    You may think you healthy but you never know.

    Dunno why you are so upset with training and health checkup.

    you're not young anymore man.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I have not done a medical checkup for the last 25 years.

    As long as I can eat, sleep, shit and run around without any pains in my body, I do not see why I should go to get myself poke here and there to activate benign ageing cells in my system. And I can still eat anything I want to live life normally.

    The more you scan, the more you poke, the likelihood of irritating the benign ageing cells is higher. Let them also age nicely and peacefully.

    Know your own body. It is meant to age. I guarantee you at my age if I go for a scan there will be many spots showing up. But these are normal cells ageing. Do not disturb them and when the time comes to go, just go. No need to fear this or fear that.

    We shall all die. No need to live in fear or allow a scan to frighten the daylight out of you and to empty your savings.

    At my age, I can sprint like any young man and that is good enough for me.

    Thank you very much for your concern.

    ///We are getting support from Australia, Hong Kong and Thailand and other countries to support this petition.///

    Better remove all these foreigner support --- PAPies confirm will bo hiew or even tekan & publicly criticise all of you for allowing foreigner interference.

    Remember: Govt themselves can allow foreigner interference becoz they are the FUCKING GOVT and the voters give them THE MANDATE. Not happy?!?!?! Then VOTE THEM OUT LARRR, OR STAND FOR ELECTIONS AND FIGHT!!!! LOL!!!!

    GE coming ---- most likely Nov (Sep too rushed larr even though saf100 letters sent out to civil servants liao).

  15. @Virgo,

    ///CSJ is the KingMaker and Mediator.
    Most unselfish Opposition Leader trying to unite the Opposition.///

    YOU ARE MOST NAIVE!!!!

    CSJ is damned selfish --- otherwise in Bt Batok he would have given up his name for Paul Tambyah or is it Tambi?!?!? LOL!!!

    Feedback from the ground already told CSJ that voters will support Tambi MORE THAN CSJ, but he refused to give up his name in the by-election.

    And in the Oppo meeting that SDP organised, the real story is that CSJ actually wanted TCB to join SDP as a potential 2nd-in-charge under him of course. Of course TCB not keen, and in fact gave pointed criticism to the MSM that "certain Oppo leaders need to step down" in order to get wider support from voters.

    When talking to MSM, TCB also praised some of the newer Oppo "young blood" --- TCB ONLY NAMED ONE SINGLE OPPO THAT HE THOUGHT WAS VERY GOOD --- THE TAMBI!!!

    But it seems after the 2016 BE cockup, Tambi has moved into the background (maybe sidelined by his boss???) & he has focused more on his medical career.

  16. @All,

    PAPies not interested in old fuckers lah.

    PAPies are forward looking --- they are seeing into the 5th and 6th generation liao!!

    That's why they're more interested in investing your CPF monies for the future:

    GIC invests $620M CPF money into Ahneh roads.

  17. " ... SMA's requirement is that the masters athletes must attend 75% of their centralised training, held twice a week ... " redbean


    Because Uncle LHL was a former General, do you think he has turned Singapore into an army camp?

    Everything like army style.
    e.g
    - centralized training
    - at designated training locations
    - by designated coaches

    - everything is compulsory
    - fly together as a team
    - stay together in the same hotel as a team
    - discourage accompany spouses (just like army camp ... no fucking allowed)

    Well done Uncle Lee.
    As usual, something that was originally not broken ... you and your army cronies have now fixed until broken.

    Bt Batok voters NOT STUPID --- they know who to give their votes to. If it was Tambyah he would stand a very good chance. But between CSJ and some PAPpy guy, the voters will just give to PAPies lorr. THAT'S WHY MURALI WON.

    CSJ was advised on the above --- yet he refused to let Tambyah stand for SDP.

    Tambyah is REALLY much better than CSJ and most other PAPpy ministers & MPs.

    Your problem is that you think you're always smarter than other people ... NOT!!!

    And too stupid & too stubborn to admit even when proved. LOL!!!!

      All just balless. Afraid that the PAP would torture them.

      Be beacon of lights to those who needed the Lights to brighten their lives.

      You fuxkers just prejudiced against CSJ who is a Real fighter.

      Preferred to vote PAP parrots.

      At least the Mats are smarter than you chinkee sinkies.

      They knew how to vote for their kind to protect their interests.

      Chinkee sinkies do daft to vote others who are coloured blind to screw your arses when they have enough strength and critical mass

      See how embolden they are now even to show their middle fingers and scold vulgarities at you stupid chinks chinks sinkies

  20. You all got it all wrong about Tambyah and Chee Soon Juan. Tambyah was trying to help his brother in law. He wanted Chee to win and was 100% behind him. Tambyah does not need the seat. But the seat was very important to Chee Soon Juan. And he wanted Chee Soon Juan to win.

    There was nothing selfish about Chee but more about the generosity of Tambyah.

    Get this fact right and don't any how attacked or blamed Chee for it.

    This type of character not likely to live to your age.
