Dear Bodybuilding Enthusiasts
We should support the World Games because it is a sporting organisation assisting non-Olympic sportsmen to gather and participate. We salute IWGF and the Kaohsiung World Organising Committee for doing a great job in hosting the 2009 World Games in Taiwan.
But we strongly detest the IFBB's system in selecting the team of bodybuilders to represent at the Games. It was politics. Second stringers' athletes from India were being fielded to help the "ibbf" unrecognised Indian Team under More and his group affiliated to the IFBB to compete. A SHAM for sure.
The BREAKING NEWS are:
a) MALAYSIA did not send their athlete because they felt insulted when the IFBB tried to cover the Doping incident of Jose from Brazil from the last World Bodybuilding Championships held in Manama, Bahrain; If the IFBB can cheat doping ..what about the results, athletes do not trust them!!!! MALAYSIA support the ABBF 100% and sending a strong team to Pattaya, Thailand for the Asian Championships
b) CHINA also abstained in sending their athletes . No reasons were given but from sources we understand that the IFBB officials are arrogant and unfriendly. Without Paul Chua, the Chinese may be treated by the IFBB badly. Chua was very co-operative and a friendly guy who knows the sensitiveness of the Asian people like the Chinese in particular. His presence would have made a difference. He knows how to socialise and bring the people together.
c) WOW... Heard rumours that Egypt sent only 1 athlete because 8 were either positive on drugs or they were afraid of the target testing by WADA. They will fail the test. At the IFBB competitions, the EGYPTIAN BODYBUILDERS are treated like the Pharaohs and the IFBB willingly consented to their request at the last Congress in Manama that only one from the top 3 will be tested for dope testing and 1 or 2 athletes will be picked from the 4th - 6th placings. Why? Because the Egyptians are all on drugs and they will surely win the top 3 spots and by testing only one from the top 3, they could escape dope testing and win the Team Championships trophy. Rafael allowed this system to help Egypt. Is this a fair game? You JUDGE.
Now through the folly of Rafael, Maurico and William, they blundered and deprived many other athletes from participating in the World Games. This favouritism game of the IFBB must be checked and the IFBB should be questioned for all these nonsense.

Dear Rafeal,
First of all, why is it that you’re not replying to any of my emails? Are you that gutless? At least be brave and face us with some answers or give up your seat at IFBB! Apparently you don’t have what it takes.
It may be that I'm being too blunt but are you or are you not going to suspend EGYPT for pulling out 8 of their 9 participants in the World Games in Kaohsiung. Their withdrawal in the last minute does raise some questions – are they on drugs? Frightened of the target testing maybe?
Is the IFBB bold enough to reprimand those 8 erring athletes or will it just sit still in its cowardliness?
