Swimmers forced to
drop events
Last Updated on 13 December 2012
By Stephanie Ip
Phnom Penh Post Newspaper
Two of the three squad members,
19-year-old Hem Thon Vitiny and Maximov Chamraen Youri, 17, will race in just
their stronger events having originally planned to compete in two each.
Vitiny will be competing in the
women’s 50-metre freestyle on Saturday while Chamraen is down for the same race
in the men’s category today.
Only 22-year-old Hem Thon Ponloeu
will compete in two events – the men’s 50-metre freestyle today and
the 50-metre breaststroke on Saturday.
National team coach Hem Kiry told
the Post yesterday that he was unsure about what exactly went wrong during
registration as world governing body FINA had not given them any reasons.
Vitiny and Chamraen will no longer be participating in the 50-metre backstroke
and 50-metre butterfly races, respectively.
The three swimmers competing in
Turkey are no strangers to international events. Ponloeu and his niece Vitiny
both received Olympic Solidarity placements to participate in the London
Olympics over the summer, while this week’s race is Chamraen’s second time at
the FINA World Short Course Championships.
Kiry remained optimistic that the
swimmers will perform well because of hard work in training, while conceding that
the medals would be “too hard to reach”.
“We have been training, not just two
months before the competition, but for a whole year ever since the London
Games. I hope they come back with good results,” said the coach.
Khmer Amateur Swimming Federation Secretary-General
Hem Thon, a legend of Cambodian swimming during the 1960s and father and
grandfather to Ponloeu and Vitiny, respectively, is accompanying the team in
Istanbul.
COMMENTS FROM AQUATICS CAMBODIA MAGAZINE:
1.
Exact Age of Cambodian Swimmer Chamraen Youri MAXIMOV is
16 years old, not 17, as it was written at the Phnom Penh Post newspaper. He was born on 06 January
2006.

We tried, to put comments on the Post website, after
notice of several mistakes, in this and previous article, about swimming, our
comments were received, for consideration, by web-administrator, but never put
after the articles and no any explanations received why.
What is amazing, that Phnom Penh Post newspaper correspondent Ms Stephanie Ip has contacted us, and, in her funny childish manner has told to us that: if we want to tell people about participation of Cambodian swimmers in the World Swim Championship in Turkey, we should call to her. We replied to her, that she is not our boss yet, so, we would not call with report to her, and, if she wants to know, from us, any info - she needs, to ask her newspaper, to let her call to us, from newspaper office telephone line, or invest some money and call to us from her personal mobile telephone line - we would be more than happy, to spend our time and share our knowledge, by the way - free of charge, with Phnom Penh Newspaper correspondents! Or, if her newspaper is so cheap, that its correspondents cannot afford to make a local phone call - she can see, at Aquatics Cambodia website - info about participation of Cambodian swimmers in this event, as well as all other helpful info about swimming sport development in our kingdom, but, just do not forget, we told to her, about copyright issue - in her article, if she would like to use, any info from our website, she should not to forget, put the source of information correctly! During this conversation, we understood, that this lady never ever wrote about aquatics sport development in Cambodia, as well as other sports, and simply knows nothing about this topics! And, after this conversation, the Phnom Penh Post Newspaper correspondent Ms Stephanie Ip has never called us back and just disappeared and never appeared again!
