After a world-class show at a time of suffering, an athlete needs motivation, not a political wet blanket FMTNews Diva

There are four things that do not belong in sports: violent losers, match-fixers, drug cheats – and politicians.

We have just seen a bunch of politicians deciding that people should not be allowed to exercise outdoors. No walking, jogging or cycling. Even the deputy sports minister, a budding politician, agreed. “Can you imag­ine some­one in their 20s hav­ing a Datuk­ship? It will be very dif­fi­cult for her to in­ter­act nor­mally out­side,” he has been quoted as saying.

Meanwhile, there are many unworthy Datuks and Datuk Seris out there, who are even younger than Pandelela. A certain Nicky Liow immediately comes to mind.So, is Pandelela mature enough to warrant a datukship? And has she earned it? It’s no wonder that she was quick to dive into the case of Ain Husniza Saiful Nizam, who had complained about a teacher who made jokes about rape.
