My dear Arab Brothers,
I know that this email could come as a surprise to you but to me it is very cherish able and memorable in my life as an Arab.
You are brave, honest and loyal to all our Asian brothers, and I am so pleased and happy tonight that none of you are attending the so called IFBB Mr. Asia in Aurangbad, India which is taking place now from 24 - 27 July, 2009. The competition is illegal and not recognized by ABBF or the Olympic Council of Asia. The IFBB is bogus.
The IFBB thought all our Arab brothers will blindly follow and support them but they forgot that our Asian President is an honest Arab gentleman coming from a wealthy and decent family and very humble to serve and promote bodybuilding for Asians including our Arabs.
His name is Mr. OSAMA AHMAD ALSHAFAR from the United Arab Emirates ( UAE ). He is very honest, sincere and dedicated to our sport of bodybuilding.
I am writing to thank each and every one of you for your courage, intelligence and loyalty to stand-up and say NO to dictatorship.
ABBF is led by honest people and we have 33 countries participating in the Asian Championships at Pattaya, Thailand from 11th – 17th of August, 2009. I am happy that you are joining us to enjoy the celebration of 50 years Golden Anniversary.
You will be treated with great respect. In sports, we do not hold hatred but we build bridges of friendship and goodwill so if any of our Arab brothers would like to come, we will accept them with open hands. I know to some this will come as a surprise but our Holy Qaraan taught us not to hate anyone but to forgive and understand them. They are not guilty but they had been misled.
We thank you for your support and looking forward to seeing you all in Pattaya, Thailand.
Your Brother,
Mohamad Abdulrahim Abdulla
Executive Vice-President - ABBF
