00:00After six years as a leader, now it's the turn of Dato' Syafawi Ismail
00:04to continue the legacy of the National Athlete's Charity Foundation
00:07as the last hope for the former national athlete.
00:11No matter what, without the leadership of his predecessor,
00:14Dato' Nurul Arifin managed to set a high goal to be achieved.
00:19Yes, at the same time, it raises the question,
00:21can he fulfill this commitment with full responsibility
00:24or the voice of the former athlete
00:26will just be an unwavering faith?
00:31The winner of the 2006 Commonwealth Melbourne Gold Bowl,
00:35Nurul Arifin Ismail, believes that Syafawi's appointment as the new chairman
00:39is the right decision by the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Sports.
00:43With extensive experience in the country's sports leadership,
00:47Syafawi must have his own strength to move Yakib to a better level.
00:52In addition, without this effort,
00:54the fate of many former athletes will be neglected
00:56and their sacrifices for the country will be forgotten.
00:59That's all.
01:02Who doesn't know Dato' Syafawi?
01:05Since I was a Jaya athlete, Jaya 98,
01:09until I became a former athlete,
01:11and he took care of us when we were athletes in the national team,
01:16all the athletes know him.
01:19Whatever he does, he must do it for the betterment of the former athletes.
01:29To continue, Hashimah, who is also Yakib's assistant,
01:33explained the importance of helping the Jaya athletes
01:36to continue their life's struggle,
01:39even though their names have been forgotten for a long time.
01:44What he gave me is very useful.
01:48Like me, I also had previous injuries.
01:52So I used it when I went to ISN, through Yakib.
01:56I believe and believe that Dato' Syafawi is the right person
02:00to be chosen as Yakib's president
02:04to take care of the well-being of the former athletes.
02:10Looking at the success of Dato' Ahmad Syafawi Ismail,
02:13he is indeed not a rookie in the sports industry.
02:16He started as a sales officer at MSN's Sukan Garai event in 1988-1996.
02:22Then, he continued as the head of MSN's International Preparation Department
02:27until the last time,
02:29he was the head of MSN from 2014-2023.
02:33This time, he continues his role as the chairman of the former athletes' charity foundation.
