Dec 20, 2017

Malaysia's Olympic silver medalist Cheong Jun Hoong is surprised, that Yang Zhuliang will not be kept on as coach of the national diving team.

It was recently reported that Yang will not have his contract renewed, apparently for refusing to adopt the latest technology in his training methods.

Jun Hoong, however, feels that the coach's methods are effective, having produced medal-winning divers at the world level.

She is also hoping that the National Sports Institute and the National Sports Council will change their minds about releasing the coach.
