HASRAT beregu badminton wanita negara, Pearly Tan–M Thinaah untuk meneruskan momentum kejuaraan tidak kesampaian apabila tersingkir di pusingan kedua Terbuka Denmark Super 750 di Jyske Arena, Odense pada Khamis.Gandingan pilihan Malaysia itu tewas kepada pasangan Jepun, Arisa Igarashi–Chiharu Shida, dengan keputusan 18-21, 9-21 dalam tempoh 35 minit.Biarpun beraksi cemerlang pada set pertama dengan corak permainan agresif dan terancang, Pearly–Thinaah gagal mengekalkan momentum apabila pasangan Jepun berkenaan mula menguasai pertukaran pukulan serta menutup ruang serangan pada set kedua.Kekalahan itu sekali gus menamatkan impian mereka untuk mengulangi prestasi gemilang selepas menjuarai Terbuka Artik Super 500 di Energia Arena, Vantaa, Finland, pada Ahad.

TOKYO : Sanae Takaichi, the newly-elected leader of Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party, conducted coalition discussions with the right-leaning Innovation Party on Thursday. This move aims to secure her position in an anticipated prime ministerial vote scheduled for next week. Japan’s Nikkei share average increased as Takaichi’s prospects of becoming the nation’s first female prime minister improved. Market optimism grew around potential economic stimulus measures and continued loose monetary policies under her leadership. Takaichi’s succession path appeared certain until the LDP’s junior partner Komeito exited their 26-year coalition last week. This departure triggered intense negotiations among various political parties to determine Japan’s next premier. Innovation Party co-head Fumitake Fujita stated that members strongly supported securing their policy commitments through coalition formation. He emphasised their goal to transform Japanese politics through this partnership. The combined LDP and Innovation Party would fall just two seats short of a lower house majority. This parliamentary body holds the decisive vote for selecting Japan’s prime minister. The Innovation Party advocates establishing a second capital city alongside Tokyo and restarting nuclear power plants. Their platform also includes limiting foreign resident numbers and strengthening Japan’s defence capabilities. On constitutional matters, the party supports revising Japan’s pacifist constitution. These positions align with Takaichi’s nationalist stance from the LDP’s right wing. The main opposition Constitutional Democratic Party attempted to form a three-way alliance with the Innovation Party and Democratic Party For the People. These negotiations concluded without agreement on Wednesday. The LDP proposed October 21 for parliament to vote on the next prime minister. Opposition parties have resisted this timing due to ongoing coalition discussions. Any candidate achieving a simple majority in the first parliamentary vote will become prime minister. Without a clear winner, the top two candidates proceed to a run-off election. EurAsia Group analysts assessed Takaichi’s premiership probability at 75% despite the fluid political situation. They cited her potential alliance with the Innovation Party as a significant factor. – Reuters

THE government will not halt financial allocations for the national football team despite FIFA’s suspension of seven heritage players. Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh emphasised continued ministry support for the Harimau Malaya squad, highlighting the many local players still representing Malaysia internationally. She noted that current FIFA sanctions target only seven specific players while overlooking the remaining local squad members like Faisal Halim and Arif Aiman. “We cannot simply stop helping the local football players who are still playing for the Malaysian team,“ Yeoh told reporters after the Jalur Gemilang flag handover ceremony for upcoming international games. The minister affirmed ongoing government assistance for local players needing support during international competitions. Yeoh explained her ministry will await FIFA’s complete decision before issuing any official statement regarding the disciplinary matter. FIFA recently disciplined FAM and seven heritage players for violating Article 22 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code concerning document forgery. The international body found that FAM submitted falsified documents to confirm player eligibility for the Asian Cup Qualifiers match against Vietnam. FAM received a 350,000 Swiss franc fine while each player was fined 2,000 Swiss francs and suspended for twelve months. FAM Acting President Datuk Mohd Yusoff Mahadi confirmed the association has officially appealed FIFA’s disciplinary decision. He stated FAM’s legal team acted promptly after receiving the full judgement and completed all necessary documentation before the deadline. The flag handover ceremony prepared Malaysian contingents for the 2025 Asian Youth Games in Bahrain and 2025 Islamic Solidarity Games in Saudi Arabia. 120 national athletes will participate in 17 sports at the Asian Youth Games from October 22 to 31. 17 Malaysian athletes will compete in five sports at the Islamic Solidarity Games from November 7 to 21. – Bernama

STOCKHOLM : A suspect has been identified in the murder of an anti-Islam campaigner in Sweden last January. The public prosecutor announced the development on Monday in a case the Swedish prime minister suggested might involve foreign powers. Investigators have established a clear sequence of events through extensive technical work and surveillance footage review. The suspect’s current location remains unknown according to the prosecutor’s statement. Authorities have scheduled a detention hearing for Friday in a district court. This legal step precedes the issuance of an international wanted notice for the suspect under Swedish law. Victim Salwan Momika was an Iraqi refugee known for publicly burning and desecrating copies of the Koran. He was shot dead near Stockholm hours before a verdict in his trial for agitation against an ethnic group. Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson stated in January that the killing potentially involved foreign power connections. Muslims worldwide condemned the Koran burnings as blasphemous acts against their holy book. These incidents complicated Sweden’s NATO accession process which concluded earlier this year. Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had called for severe punishment against Koran desecrators in 2023. He accused Sweden of waging war on the Muslim world by allegedly supporting the perpetrators. Sweden elevated its terrorism threat level following the Koran burnings due to security concerns. The terrorism alert was recently lowered back to level three on a five-point scale earlier this year. – Reuters

KOTA BHARU: The General Operations Force will not compromise or protect any officers involved in misconduct including counter-setting activities at the national border. GOF Southeast Brigade acting commander ACP Ijid Landu Binju stated he has not received any official complaints regarding such activities from the public. He confirmed his officers and personnel have been performing their duties well according to his observations. The commander emphasised he would not tolerate any officer found violating the law or participating in immoral activities. Ijid issued this warning during a press conference following the handover ceremony for the 8th Battalion commanding officer. He explained that reminders about proper conduct are given continuously rather than only after complaints are received. The acting commander stressed his responsibility to constantly remind field personnel against misconduct even without formal complaints. GOF Southeast Brigade will continue efforts to enhance integrity and discipline among its members. These measures aim to ensure border protection tasks are carried out effectively with full public trust. Kelantan police previously confirmed receiving preliminary information about counter-setting along the Malaysia-Thailand border. Kelantan police chief Datuk Mohd Yusoff Mamat expressed concern about such activities bypassing security measures. He noted this problem could affect high-tech locations like KLIA and more vulnerable border areas. An enforcement officer was arrested at KLIA Terminal 1 on July 24 for suspected counter-setting involvement. This scheme involves immigration officers collaborating with syndicates to facilitate illegal entry without documentation. The Border Control and Protection Agency confirmed the arrest by its Monitoring and Integrity Unit. CCTV footage revealed suspicious behaviour at the immigration checkpoint leading to the apprehension. – Bernama

SEOUL : A top South Korean presidential adviser expressed optimism about finalising a trade agreement with the United States. Kim Yong-beom made his remarks before departing for Washington alongside Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan. They will join Finance Minister Koo Yun-cheol and Trade Minister Yeo Han-koo for follow-up negotiations. Kim’s comments echoed earlier statements by Minister Koo about “huge progress” in the talks. Foreign Minister Cho Hyun also noted “positive signals” regarding a potential deal. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the countries were close to finalising an agreement. He expected an official announcement within the next ten days. Seoul aims to reach a deal before US President Donald Trump’s late October visit for an Asia-Pacific summit. South Korea has raised concerns about the foreign exchange implications of a 350 billion dollar investment package. Officials have requested safeguards like a currency swap line to prevent market disruption. The country’s benchmark KOSPI stock index rose 2.5% to a record high on Thursday. Hyundai Motor shares surged 8.3% to a one-year high amid tariff cut expectations. Kia Motors jumped 7.2% on hopes for reduced auto tariffs from 25% to 15%. A trade official acknowledged some US response on foreign exchange risks but noted more work remains. National security adviser Wi Sung-lac clarified no progress had been made on currency swap discussions. He stated that sufficient conditions for such arrangements had not been achieved. Local media reported various currency safeguard tools were under consideration. Citi economist Kim Jin-wook noted rising odds for a partial compromise after prolonged deadlock. He identified three key conditions for successful negotiations. These include faster-than-expected timing, maintaining the 350 billion dollar figure, and implementing currency risk safeguards. – Reuters
