MALAYSIAN HOCKEY DILEMMA - Been invited for 3 Famous Renowned Podcast to Explain the Decay & Issues...Enjoy it!

Warm Greetings to all my readers...

Hope everyone has been good and fine. Didn't been writing for sometime and decided to just provide some updates and information.

Malaysian hockey is undergoing a unrepairable turbulence since last year  Asian Games till recent Sultan of Johor Cup 2024.

The Results based on the chronology of events:

2023 Asian Games - Finished 6th

2024 Paris Olympic Qualification in Jan Muscat - Finished 5th out of 8 teams

2024 Sultan Azlan Shah Cup - finished 4th out of 6

2024 FIH Nation Cup - finished 7 out of 8 teams - Poland played as a host.

2024 - Europe Tour Senior Team - Poor Performances

2024 Asian Champions Trophy - finished last 6 out of 6

2024 Junior Australia Tour - lost all the matches

2024 Sultan of Johor Cup - Men's U21 - Finished last 6 out of 6

What is a dilemma? - a difficult situation or problem.

The above results, in my view, I was expecting it and was not surprised, as this didn't happen overnight and its what we did in the last 6-8 years which is the real reflection of our standard in World Hockey. 

Many believed in perception over reality style of leadership but I was always consistent in my views and been saying that we are no longer an International Hockey Team but many defy my facts and but time & results has spoken..

Anyway, was called to be in two podcast lately to explain why and where was the decay or issues that is plaguing Malaysian hockey.
