Gandhi,

It is in the papers and the Sports Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob wants to meet the 102 former internationals who have expressed concern with the state of Malaysian hockey.

The minister wants to listen to the former players proposals before taking any further action.

There is a possible move to set up a taskforce to look into the state of hockey.

Gandhi,

As the stakes are high, I hope that the people responsible will survive their fantasy in one piece.

The momentum for justice is finally in full motion.

Dear Gandhi,

Looking at the magnitude of situation, the Minister should not only instruct NSC to form the Taskforce but get ACA and JHDN to act as well.

The earlier claims by MM should be investigated thoroughly and leave no stone unturned to save the game.

The hockey world is concern and waiting to see the results of the investigation.

Gandhi,

Are you sure this 102 is doing the right thing?

102 sounds familiar... only the stroke is missing..

Hopefully not the "10/2..10/2"

Well done in the name of justice.
