Park Joo Bong stays in Tokyo after all

After Park Joo Bong had almost signed the offer given by BAM, the Korean legend finally changed his mind and will remain as head coach in Japan for another four years. “It’s been a miserable two weeks as I was torn between the two countries. I wanted to come to Malaysia but I have set so much in place in Japan over the last eight years and made many friends. They didn’t want me to go and I finally agreed to stay.” said Joo Bong in a telephone Inerview to “The Star”.

“It’s unfortunate but we will now look at other alternatives. We will have to find someone of the same calibre or appoint several project managers to run our programmes.” reacted Ng Chin Chai, BAM coaching and training chairman to the Star.
