Not practical to hold Olympics now, says Norza


PETALING JAYA: Olympic Council of Malaysia (OCM) president Datuk Seri Norza Zakaria (pic) reckons that the postponement of the 2020 Tokyo Games is inevitable.

Heavyweights Canada and Australia have pulled out the Olympics because of the risks associated with the Covid-19 outbreak, while the head of World Athletics, Sebastian Coe, has also called for a postponement, saying it was “neither feasible nor desirable” for the Games to be held from July 24-Aug 9.
