PUTRAJAYA: Forget about the flop at the Commonwealth Games. Let’s move on – that’s the rally call by National Sports Council (NSC) director general Datuk Seri Zolkples Embong when the Asian Games-bound athletes gathered for the final camp in Putrajaya on Monday.

“For those athletes who failed in the Commonwealth Games, they should move on and try to redeem themselves in the Asiad (in Incheon, South Korea, from Sept 19-Oct 4). We need them to be at their best mentally and physically. Ignore whatever happened in Glasgow and go to Incheon with confidence,” said Zolkples.
