<h2>Following the setback in Doha, Pandelela reportedly claimed that &#8220;entities&#8221; disrupted the national diving squad&#8217;s performance</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>The renowned Malaysian diver&#8217;s remarks about &#8220;the presence of entities&#8221;, shared during a press conference on 12 February, have created confusion and invited questions from the Malaysia Swimming Federation (MAS) due to the unusual nature of the claims, which lack any specific explanation.</p>
<p><b>So, what really happened?</p>
<p></b>According to a <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.hmetro.com.my/arena/lain/2024/02/1060159/ada-entiti-ganggu-skuad-terjun">report</a> in Harian Metro on 12 February, Pandelela attributed some of the team&#8217;s struggles to &#8220;unsettling occurrences&#8221; beyond their control and bad luck. The report mentioned that she would be bringing this matter to the attention of Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh, as it also affects both senior and junior divers.</p>
<p>&#8220;There are unsettling occurrences [&#8230;] the full story will be explained later. What I can say is that unexpected things happened, and luck was not on our side,&#8221; she said, adding, &#8220;Almost all of us [divers] were affected by this. It not only disturbed senior divers but also junior divers. It&#8217;s better if I discuss this matter internally.&#8221;</p>

<h2>Pandelela&#8217;s vague remarks sparked speculation regarding whether the Sarawakian was referring to a human or something else.</p>
<p>However, MAS claimed it was unaware of the issue raised by Pandelela and stated that they would investigate.</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>Additionally, MAS secretary-general Andy Low <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.nst.com.my/sports/others/2024/02/1012869/mas-puzzled-pandelelas-entity-claim">claimed</a> that Pandelela&#8217;s remarks were only an excuse to cover up her failure as no such issue had been brought to his attention during their earlier conversations.</p>
<p>He, however, added that they will meet with Pandelela to better understand what she is referring to.</p>
<p>Low&#8217;s statements caused further controversy, with Sarawak&#8217;s Youth, Sports, and Entrepreneur Development Minister Datuk Seri Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah taking issue. The minister called them &#8220;distasteful&#8221; and questioned the sincerity behind MAS&#8217; efforts in grooming Pandelela&#8217;s successors in the diving sport.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was disappointed when Low said Pandelela only &#8216;<i>makan gaji</i>&#8216; (take her salary). No doubt the athletes &#8216;<i>makan gaji</i>&#8216; but [&#8230;] there&#8217;s no need for officers like Low to belittle the athletes. Who is this Andy Low? Has he represented Malaysia? Has he been a sportsman?&#8221; the Borneo Post <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.theborneopost.com/2024/02/14/what-have-you-done-for-malaysias-diving-scene-abd-karim-lambasts-mas-low/">quoted</a> Abdul Karim as saying.</p>
<p>&#8220;What have Andy Low and MAS been doing about the successors? If only Pandelela has been around since over 10 years ago, that means MAS has not been doing anything. What have you been doing for the last 10 years? How many years have you been the secretary? I want to ask MAS, especially Andy. What have you done in trying to groom the people to continue in the sport of diving?&#8221; the minister asked.</p>

<h2>Amidst the brouhaha, Pandelela took to her Instagram on Wednesday to clarify that it wasn&#8217;t her who mentioned &#8220;entities&#8221;, but a journalist who had asked if there were &#8220;entities/unseen hands&#8221; at play</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>In a series of InstaStories posted on 14 February, Pandelela stated that she was taken aback by the journalist&#8217;s question about &#8220;entities&#8221;, to which she said that she replied with a &#8220;no&#8221;.</p>
<p>She expressed her disappointment, emphasising﻿ that she didn&#8217;t even make an excuse for the defeat.</p>
<p>&#8220;But when the journalist asked, I had to answer without giving a detailed explanation [&#8230;] I said something happened to the team that affected a lot of us seniors and juniors in recent years [&#8230;] But everyone is quick to jump on the issue without clarifying with me,&#8221; she wrote in her InstaStories, adding that even the suggestion to meet with Hannah Yeoh to discuss the issue was also from the media, and not her.</p>

<h2>Jamsari, who retired professionally in 2008, said he is still determined to sell the medals for additional cash</h2>
</div>
<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p><p>&#8220;If anyone is interested, they can contact me,&#8221; he told Sinar Harian.</p>
<p>According to the Malay daily, <b>Jamsari previously sold another collection of medals he had won </b><b>during his time with Selangor FC</b><b></b>, which were the <b></b>Malaysia Premier League, Malaysia Cup, and Malaysia FA Cup medals he won in 2005.</p>
<p>The former player admitted to feeling somewhat saddened by the outstanding salary situation that continues to affect Malaysian football players and competitions.</p>
<p>&#8220;I actually don&#8217;t want to make a fuss about matters like this because I retired due to issues like these. But when I returned to [coach] football, these issues are still prevalent.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not good for our football industry,&#8221; he said.</p>
