Most countries choose a particular sport to invest their resources on... I think it's ridiculous for Sharara to be worrying so much about China's dominance in table tennis.
The United States dominate women's soccer, swimming, mens and womens basketball, baseball, softball, plus many others. No one cares that the Americans are "devastating" so many sports. It's utterly stupid. Believe me, as a Chinese I know most people in China are disgusted that Ma Long can not play in this Olympics men's singles along with Wang Hao and ZJK because of Sharara, whatever positive "spin" he wants to put it. Karma is a funny thing... One day it will bite Sharara and his clowns at ITTF back.

men's softball ?? in the Olympics? :?:

In the US, at the top competitive level: softball = women's softball. No one cares about "men's softball."

There is something wrong with Sharara and thus ITTF.. That's for sure and IS the conclusion.. :^)

I think everybody already knew though..

Are there any rules limiting one's presidency in ITTF? (I mean time limit)

Previous ITTF Presidents have pretty much been in for life. Since Sharara likes to be called "Mr. Change," maybe the ITTF's "president for life" tradition will change with his ouster. He's gotta go.

Iim pretty disgusted too and i'm not even chinese. I mean, top ten world players in ANY sport should have an spot at Olympics, maybe a cap of 5 guys per country should be ok, but 2 is too little.

Mr.Sharara's most recent interview in public, he did with India's mass media reporters in November2012

Regretfully, can't understand his English well from MP3 audio track.

What did he say about the "china domination" and "plastic balls"?
Can you convert his answers to written text?

Thanks.
