Think Big Dream High,E 29 – The Player Or The Game, Which Is More Superior?



The Player And The Game

1.Both are important. Pele is important  and so is football. Tiger Woods is important and so is the golf game. Pele is actually more popular and created a phenomenal interest throughout the world for the football game. Same goes for Tiger Woods. He is more popular than the golf game. But where is Pele now?. The football game has become more popular with upcoming new and young players. Where is Tiger Woods now? The golf game  continues to become popular with new, young players who excelled in their games. Rory Mcllroy is now the golf game trendsetter and  not Tiger Woods anymore. This means players come and go but the game itself remains supreme forever.

2.The fans are the ones that determine the direction of the game.  The technology, quality of the related equipments and the rules of the game has to be improved from time to time. With continuous improvement, the fans will be happier and their numbers will increase.

3.Why is Pele synonym with the football game and Tiger Woods synonym with the golf game? The truth of the matter, the phenomenal interest is heavily due to the TV and newspaper media publicity.  The media is the one that makes the respective players and the games popular. The media plays a more than effective role. If the media says A is good, the public’s opinion will be swayed towards A. if the media says B is good then the public’s opinion will be swayed towards B.

4.That is why the responsibility and intention of a reporter will be questioned by Allah SWT in the hereafter. The appropriate rewards or punishments awaited them. Heaven for the one who is kind, fair and sincere in their reporting and hell for those who reported slanderous  issues, purposely manipulating facts and issues for the benefit of certain group without any justifiable basis.

5.The same analogy binds the leader with the rakyat and the country. A leader will be remembered throughout his life if he is successful in developing the country and raising the standards of living of the rakyat. The rakyat will continue to appreciate and be thankful to the leader if the leader has actually performs good deeds to the country and its people. Once again it is the media’s role to popularize the leader.

Reality in life

1.A leader is important but they come and go. What about the country and its people? The country and its people will remained forever. The football game has become increasingly popular as Pele popularized it. The popularity and the speed with which a country develops is the same as well. It depends on the country’s leader. The fans love football because of Pele. The rakyat is proud and love their country because of the leaders good deeds.

2.Our role as the rakyat is to ensure that our leader continues to give focus  in the development of the country. The country’s leader cannot deviate his focus from that of developing the country to issues of personal interest to him. A leader is responsible for the direction, mission and vision of the country.

3.We as the rakyat should always give the signal and warning to our leaders so that they will always be on the right track. If they are on the right track and honest, we will elect them again, otherwise we will choose the one that can be trusted to protect our present and future generation’s interest.

4.The rakyat is becoming more educated and intelligent. The rakyat is becoming more conscientious and brilliant. The rakyat is becoming cleverer at siphoning the news. The rakyat knows how to differentiate between diamond, silver, gold, stone and jewel. The rakyat is becoming smarter at choosing which leader can be relied on, fair and responsible towards their wellbeing. We are in the era of ICT and knowledge based community. The leader just cannot mislead us with rhetoric speeches. They need to perform and deliver the goods.

Tips  

1.The electronic and print media spent too much time reporting on items that challenges the minds of the rakyat. The media is often playing with the intellectual capacity of the rakyat. We are heading towards a developed nation status. The media should play its role in contributing towards the development of the intellectual minds of the rakyat. The media should be in the same wavelength with the country’s leader on issues pertaining to programmes and development agenda of the country’s development process. The media should  not carry too much news on slanderous, misleading, untruths and negative news. These media cannot continuously insult the intelligence of the readers or viewers.

2.Day and night the leaders are thinking of ways on how to make the rakyat’s lives better. The media should also do their homework and  present news that can open the minds of the rakyat so that they can work hand in hand with the leaders to develop the country. Not highlighting sensational and destructive news that hurt other people’s feelings.

3.The leader belongs to the rakyat. The media belongs to the rakyat. It is not necessary for our media to act immature. By holding strongly to the oath of allegiance in the journalism professionalism will make our media achieve world class quality and respect.

4.The rakyat will choose the leader in a smart and orderly manner. The rakyat knows which leader that should be appreciated.The rakyat knows how to be thankful to the leader who has served the rakyat well. The rakyat can see, the rakyat can feel, the rakyat can hear and therefore the rakyat can select wisely the best leader for them.

5.The rakyat knows that the leader is actually interested in developing the country with sustainable programmes that can benefit future generations to come. The main duty of the leader is to ensure the wellbeing of the rakyat. The rakyat just want to see progress for the country. The rakyat just want to see prosperity, stability and honesty. The rakyat just want safety and security. They do not want disparity, disunity, dispute or clashes.

6.There is no need for the politicians and media to sensationalised racial, embarassing or sensitive issues. Focus on uniting our own community, uniting all the rakyat. The country will be more peaceful and successful if we are all united and living in harmony. The country developed and the rakyat will automatically follow suit. The rakyat and the country are supreme.

7.Regardless of what happens to Pele and Tiger Woods, the fooball and golf fans will always remember, appreciate and thankful to both of them for popularizing these two sports throughout the world. However, between Pele and football, football is more supreme. Between Tiger Woods and golf, golf is more supreme. Football and golf will continue to exist and be of interest years to come. Same goes with the leader, the rakyat and the country. The rakyat and the country are more supreme because as the rakyat, we are a friendly and civilized group of people who love peace and harmony for our country. We  are always thinking big dream high and have a strong heart.
