KURANG keserasian menjadi antara faktor Kelantan WTS sekadar melakarkan kemenangan tipis 1-0 dalam aksi pembuka tirai Liga A1 Semi Pro ketika turun melayan kunjungan pasukan Malaysian Universiti (MU) di Stadium Sultan Muhammad IV, malam tadi.Ketua jurulatih Kelantan WTS, Che Saupi Ibrahim mengakui kecewa selepas beberapa siri serangan gagal disempurnakan menjadi gol seperti yang disasarkan."Dari segi serangan, kita banyak melakukan kesilapan walaupun menguasai kira-kira 60 peratus perlawanan. Namun, penyudah sangat mengecewakan. Kita hanya dapat satu gol, sedangkan sepatutnya kita boleh jaringkan empat gol," katanya.Beliau berkata, pasukannya hanya sempat mengharungi empat perlawanan persahabatan sebelum memulakan aksi sebenar dalam liga."Memang kita banyak menguasai perlawanan tetapi keserasian di bahagian tengah perlu diperbaiki kerana kita banyak kehilangan bola," katanya kepada pemberita selepas tamat perlawanan.Begitupun Che Saupi menyifatkan kemenangan itu sedikit sebanyak mampu menjadi suntikan semangat untuk menghadapi perlawanan seterusnya.Mengulas lanjut, beliau berkata, keadaan padang becak dan hujan turut menjejaskan prestasi pasukannya, namun pemain berjaya menyesuaikan diri dengan rentak permainan selepas menerima arahan."Alhamdulillah, dengan nasihat yang diberikan, pemain bermain dengan baik tanpa melakukan kesalahan besar. Ini satu petanda positif untuk kita melangkah ke perlawanan kedua," katanya.Sementara itu, ketua jurulatih MU, Muhd Yazli Yahya berkata, meskipun keputusan perlawanan tidak memihak kepada pasukannya, namun beliau tetap berpuas hati dengan usaha yang ditunjukkan pemain."Saya rasa keadaan padang serta cuaca hujan sedikit mengganggu rentak permainan dan kami terima keputusan itu dengan terbuka," katanya.Tambahnya, semua pemain MU merupakan pemain tempatan dan masih memerlukan masa untuk membina keserasian."Kebanyakan pemain masih baharu dan ada yang gagal menampilkan prestasi seperti sebelum ini. Itu antara sebab rentak permainan terganggu," jelasnya.

AUSTIN (Texas) : Texas Governor Greg Abbott has ordered Democratic lawmakers to be brought back to the state capital after they left Texas in a bid to prevent voting on a Republican plan to redraw the state’s congressional districts. The exodus by Democratic members of the Texas legislature was intended to deny Republicans the quorum necessary to vote on the redistricting plan, which President Donald Trump has championed. By redrawing district lines in hopes of flipping some seats currently held by Democrats, the Republicans aim to protect the party’s narrow U.S. House of Representatives majority in next year’s midterm elections. At Monday’s session the Republican speaker of the state House issued civil warrants for the Democrats - most of whom have gone to Illinois, New York or Massachusetts - to be brought back to Austin. But the orders apply only within the state, and breaking quorum is not a crime. “To ensure compliance, I ordered the Texas Department of Public Safety to locate, arrest, and return to the House chamber any member who has abandoned their duty to Texans,“ Abbott said in a statement. On Sunday, Abbott cited an opinion by the state’s attorney general that district courts may determine whether legislators have forfeited their offices “due to abandonment,“ saying that would empower him to “swiftly fill vacancies.” But even if Abbott succeeded in ousting the absent Democrats, it would take time to hold new elections. Attorney General Ken Paxton told Fox News’ Will Cain on Monday that he expected the Texas Supreme Court to ultimately weigh in on any abandonment cases filed against the Democratic lawmakers. “And they’re obviously a Republican court,“ he added. In another possible tactic, Abbott said that any lawmaker who solicited funds to pay the $500-per-day fine that Texas House rules impose on absent legislators could violate bribery laws. He vowed to try and extradite any “potential out-of-state felons” among the group. Republicans hold a 219-212 majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, with three Democratic-held seats vacant after deaths and one Republican seat vacant after a member resigned. A stronger Republican majority in the U.S. House would enable Trump to further advance his agenda. The session - which was also called to address flood prevention and relief - is due to reconvene on Tuesday at 1 p.m. Central Time (1800 GMT). Democrats have threatened to stay out of state until the end of the 30-day special session, which began on July 21. Democratic U.S. Representatives Greg Casar and Lloyd Doggett led several dozen protesters in a march outside the governor’s mansion on Monday afternoon. “Governor Greg Abbott is a coward for saying that our law enforcement should go out and arrest our local elected officials,“ Casar told Reuters. “This is America. This is a place where you’re not supposed to be sending law enforcement to go and handcuff elected officials that you disagree with.” ‘WARNING TO THE PUBLIC’ Gene Wu, the chair of the Texas House Democratic Caucus, told Reuters on Monday that the calls for the arrest of the members of his caucus were “a warning to the public of what they’re doing. They’re threatening us with arrest because we’re defending you.” Wu said the current congressional districts in Texas already dilute the voting power of racial minorities in the state, and the new redistricting plan represented “turbocharged racism.” “To accomplish what Donald Trump wants, you would have to take that racial gerrymandering and kick it up like ten notches,“ he added. Abbott in a Monday morning appearance on Fox News’ “America’s Newsroom” called Wu’s accusation “bogus”. He said the redistricting would expand the number of Hispanic-majority districts and that it was necessary to give Trump voters in Democrat-majority districts the ability to elect Republican U.S. representatives. A White House official told Reuters that Trump supports Abbott’s threat to remove absent Democratic lawmakers and wants “whatever is necessary” done to get the new map passed. Trump has told reporters he expects the effort to yield as many as five additional House Republicans. States are required to redistrict every 10 years based on the U.S. Census, but the current Texas map was passed just four years ago by the Republican-dominated legislature. While mid-cycle redistricting occasionally takes place, it is usually prompted by a change in power at the legislature. Leaders of Democrat-led states such as California and Illinois have recently raised the idea of redistricting their own U.S. congressional maps to boost the number of Democratic seats in response to Abbott’s push in Texas. Under Texas’ current lines, Republicans control 25 out of 38 seats, nearly two-thirds of the districts in a state that went for Trump last year by a 56% to 42% margin. Texas Democratic lawmakers have before tried the strategy of leaving the state to block a redistricting plan. Some fled in 2021 in a similar bid to deny Abbott the quorum needed to pass a voting restriction measure. That bill passed after three of the lawmakers returned, saying they had achieved their goal of bringing national attention to the issue. - Reuters

KUALA LUMPUR: Ringgit meneruskan lagi pengukuhannya berbanding dolar Amerika Syarikat (AS) pada awal urus niaga hari ini ketika sentimen pelabur terhadap aset berisiko pulih susulan kemungkinan negara maju itu menurunkan kadar faedahnya, kata ahli ekonomi. Pada 8 pagi, ringgit meningkat kepada 4.2260/2395 berbanding dolar AS daripada 4.2350/2385 pada akhir urus niaga semalam. Bercakap kepada Bernama, Ketua Ahli Ekonomi Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd, Dr Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid berkata dolar AS terus merosot apabila peserta pasaran terus memberi reaksi terhadap data pasaran tenaga kerja yang lemah pada Jumaat lepas yang hanya menguatkan lagi potensi penurunan kadar faedah. “Mata wang negara sedang pesat membangun dilihat berada dalam kedudukan lebih menarik berbanding dolar AS ketika bank pusat AS dilihat cenderung mengurangkan kadar faedah. “Ini dijangka melibatkan pengurangan kadar sebanyak 25 mata asas yang akan diputuskan oleh mesyuarat Jawatankuasa Pasaran Terbuka Persekutuan (FOMC) pada September,” katanya. Mohd Afzanizam berkata ringgit diunjur bergerak dalam dalam julat 4.22 hingga 4.23 berbanding dolar AS berikutan sentimen yang positif. Selain itu, ringgit juga kebanyakannya diniagakan mengukuh berbanding mata wang utama lain pada sesi dagangan awal. Ringgit bagaimanapun susut berbanding yen Jepun kepada 2.8795/8889 daripada 2.8652/8677 pada Isnin namun mengukuh berbanding pound Britain kepada 5.6197/6377 daripada 5.6296/6342 dan naik berbanding euro kepada 4.8954/9110 daripada 4.8978/9018. Dalam pada itu, ringgit juga diniagakan kebanyakannya tinggi berbanding mata wang serantau. Ini termasuk naik berbanding dolar Singapura kepada 3.2841/2949 semalam pada 3.2878/2908 namun rendah berbanding baht Thailand kepada 13.0747/1229 daripada 13.0452/0616. Ringgit naik berbanding peso Filipina kepada 7.36/7.39 daripada 7.38/7.39 semalam dan mengukuh berbanding rupiah Indonesia kepada 257.6/258.5 daripada 258.2/258.5. - Bernama

BEIJING : Chinese authorities evacuated over 82,000 people across Beijing at risk from heavy rainfall, state media said, after dozens of people died in flooding in the capital’s suburbs last week. State news agency Xinhua said tens of thousands had been relocated from vulnerable areas as of 09:00 pm (1300 GMT) Monday, according to the city’s flood control headquarters. Authorities warned of flooding risks in the northwestern suburb of Miyun -- the hardest hit by last week’s deluge -- as well as southwestern Fangshan, western Mentougou and northern Huairou. The municipal weather service also announced a red alert -- the highest in a four-tier system -- forecasting heavy rain from noon on Monday until Tuesday morning. Floods in Beijing’s northern suburbs killed at least 44 people and left nine missing last week, according to official figures. Some 31 fatalities occurred at an elderly care centre in Miyun -- prompting a local official to admit “gaps” in disaster readiness. Residents of flood-hit areas told AFP journalists that they had been surprised at the speed with which the rushing water inundated homes and devastated villages. Natural disasters are common across China, particularly in the summer, when some regions experience heavy rain while others bake in searing heat. China is the world’s biggest emitter of the greenhouse gases that drive climate change and contribute to making extreme weather more frequent and intense. But it is also a global renewable energy powerhouse that aims to make its massive economy carbon-neutral by 2060. - AFP
