Wow, I love this paragraph:
Many others, however, have rallied in support of Farah -- including Jamaluddin. “As Minister of Sport, I still hold to the principle that it is up to the athlete on what he or she wants to wear as long as the attire is regulation approved by the federation, by the sport,” Jamaluddin told reporters at a Singapore press conference. “In her deeds only the Almighty judges her. Not you.” He added, “I think this whole incident also smacks of sexism. Nobody has complained about... kinky Speedos, or [bodybuilder] Sazali [Samad] wearing tight shorts when he flexes his muscles but when it comes to gymnasts, suddenly it's a big problem.” He added wryly, “[The Department of Islamic Development] can also possibly come up with guidelines for certain men to lower their gaze if they find it too excitable to be looking at female athletes. And I will come up with guidelines to ban people from coming to the stadiums to watch gymnastics if they can't contain themselves.”
