Qatar: The FIFA Corruption Crisis Is Only Getting Worse

http://ift.tt/2oZvDef

Just as the names of key characters in Homer’s epic poems rarely appeared without an attached epithet—swift-footed Achilles, gray-eyed Athena—so too should the acronym for soccer’s governing body always be presented as corrupt FIFA. There’s no argument from corrupt FIFA itself, whose lawyers even wrote in court documents filed in the U.S. last year, “FIFA has become notable for the defendants’ bribery and corruption, not its many good works.”

12-Year-Old ‘Humiliated’ By Chess Tournament Officials Over ‘Seductive’ Dress

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

A chess coach in Malaysia is demanding an apology after his 12-year-old student was forced to withdraw from a chess tournament after officials deemed her dress too “seductive.”

Without revealing the minor’s name, Kaushal Khandhar, the girl’s chess coach, detailed on Facebook the “disturbing incident” that took place mid-April during the 2017 National Scholastic Chess Championships in Putrajaya, Malaysia. He included a photo of the girl’s so-called inappropriate dress, which appears to reach near the knee and cover both shoulders.

“One of my student, who is a 12-YEAR-OLD GIRL felt harassed and humiliated by the actions of Tournament Director and Chief Arbiter,” Khandhar, a member of the World Chess Federation, wrote.

After the second round of the chess tournament, Khandhar explained, the event’s chief arbiter told the competitor and her mother that the girl’s dress was too “seductive” for the event and claimed it was a “temptation from a certain angle far, far away.”

According to the Federation Internationale des Eches (FIDE) handbook, which the National Scholastic Chess Championships followed, the chief arbiter is responsible for ensuring the players’ comfort during the tournament.

Khandhar said that he’s been competing in Malaysian chess tournaments for nearly two decades and has never seen an issue like this before.

Tournament officials advised the girl’s mother to buy another outfit for the girl at a nearby mall before the start of the next round the following day, according to Khandhar. Since shops were closed that evening and opened too late the next day, the girl had to withdraw from the chess tournament, forfeiting the event’s registration fees, coaching costs and travel expenses.

The girl, Khandhar added, was the chess champion of her district in Kuala Lumpur with “tremendous potential.” He said that the officials’ comments about the girl’s outfit left her “extremely disturbed and embarrassed.” 

“We are absolutely DISGUSTED by the treatment of Tournament Director to a 12-year-old girl and her mother,” Khandhar wrote.

The girl’s mother, identified as Chin Wai Ling by The Star, told the Malaysian tabloid that her daughter was shocked that the arbiter had interrupted her chess match to comment on her dress.

“From that point onwards, she said all she could think of was whether anyone was peeping [at her] throughout the game,” Ling told The Star.

The FIDE handbook, which sets the standard for chess tournaments worldwide, states that all competitors are required to be “dressed in a suitable manner,” but does not offer a specific dress code. However, Chess Daily News published a FIDE dress code policy proposal that appears to allow dresses and skirts, but forbids “revealing attire” and “clothes that expose areas of the body usually covered in the location where the event is taking place.”

People responding to Khandhar’s Facebook post of the story slammed tournament officials for being perverted and sexualizing the young girl. Others could not figure out how this dress could be considered seductive.

@staronline The people who sexually objectified her are the problem, NOT her.

— Jessica Jalynn (@jessicajalynn1) April 29, 2017

@ZaimBenzainal @staronline Nope.
There’s no circumstance that a preteen dressed like that can be considered “seductive”. Go wash out your mind.

— Nigel Tolley (@discreetsecure) April 28, 2017

@staronline Don’t see how this is “seductive”
