MABA chief steps down over flag controversyMALAYSIA Basketball Association (Maba) president Datuk Lua Choon Hann has accepted responsibility for the flag blunder and will step down from his position. MABA ought to be revamp and be multi-racial. All national schools ought be fitted with basketball courts and proper gym. Basketball should bot be monopolized by a single race by virtue that they received higher financial allocations. Someone who actually took responsibility and accountability for mistakes. Politicians should learn from this man! All takmalu only. Buang ke laut
