It’s a sad day for Perak and the judiciary. Sultan Azlan Shah is no more. But it’s sadder still for the hockey fraternity. Not only did he lead the hockey players in good times, he also made sure they would not fall into bad times when they retired.
HE was the consummate hockey man – a player for his state, a national selector who was behind the rise of some of the greatest names to have graced our hockey fields and, finally, the president of the Malaysian Hockey Federation for close to three decades.
