Flying Karamjit & Ho Grounded

::The MMail reports::

MALAYSIAN ace rally drivers Karamjit Singh and Allen Oh’s championship bid in the FIA Asia Pacific Rally Championship (APRC) is in jeopardy despite leading by 10 points; all because of a lack of funds.

How can this happen in BolehLand, how can this be when they are so near to winning both the championship and constructors’ titles. According to Karamjit or the Flying Singh aka Flying Sikh as he is popularly known, their chances for victory are bright, "We have a clear advantage over the other drivers. The chances for us to win the two titles are almost certain."

BolehLand which had sponsored efforts like 'Sailing round the world singlehanded', 1st Malaysian to swim the English Channel, 'the longest satay ever', the 1st Proton in the Arctic Circle' and numerous other efforts, why is the Flying Singh, a Malaysian Rally Superstar, unable to find sponsors at this stage.

Even in the Japanese leg of the APRC last month, they didn’t have much funds to spare either, they had to recycle the car tyres and used bald ones to race! Even then the sponsor was not from BolehLand but from India::JK Tyres. It was Mr. Sanjay Sharma, Head of Motorsport division; JK Tyre who was around to share the honours of that win in Japan.

Time is running out for Karamjit and Ho as they have to be in China by 18th October to enable them to train for the rally. Will BolehLand sponsors rally in time to support Malaysia's numero uno rally racing duo to win this Rally Championship? Will the Sports MINIster step in to help, it is time for her to walk the talk of wanting Malaysian sports to forge ahead. Here we have potential Championship winners and it would be a disaster if they were not given a chance to win owing to the lack of funding. Only time will tell.

MALAYSIA, a great place to be in, BUT we can, will and must make HER better.

You may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.
