The establishment of the AFC U22 Championship is two-fold: to provide the platform for players who have finished their youth training to transition to the senior level; and to serve as the qualifying competition to determine Asia’s representatives in the Olympics. Congratulations to the winners Iraq, who won the competition due to their discipline, teamwork and strong tactical understanding. The historical win though was not without a determined challenge from fellow finalists Saudi Arabia. In the end, Iraq’s perfect record in the competition was telling, as they continued their rich vein of form of the past few years. All in all, the inaugural competition was very well contested and traditional powerhouses like Japan, Korea Republic and Iran were given strong challenges by other up-and-coming nations.

  • Dear World Medical Association Council Chair, Dr Edward Hill and the Council
    Dear World Medical Association Council Chair, Dr Edward Hill and the Council We the undersigned 725 physicians represent both academic medicine (114 professors) and clinical practice in 43 countries. A matter of grave concern to us, and a threat to the public reputation of the World Medical Association, has brought us together in this perhaps unprecedented medical initiative. We wish to publicly protest and appeal against the recent appointment of Dr Yoram Blachar, longstanding President of the Israeli Medical Association, as President of the World Medical Association. We believe that his Presidency makes a mockery of the principles on which the WMA was founded in 1947, which was as a response to egregious abuses by German and Japanese doctors in World War Two. The WMA's own Declaration of Tokyo (1975) specifies that "physicians shall not countenance, condone or participate in the practice of torture or other forms of cruel, inhuman or degrading procedures, and in all situations, including armed conflict and civil conflict". The WMA Annual General Assembly of 2007 made it clear that inaction was not an option, stating that "this is the first time the WMA has explicitly obliged doctors to document cases of torture of which they become aware. The absence of documenting and denouncing such acts might be considered as a form of tolerance and of non-assistance to the victims".(1) There are still more recent calls from authoritative academic sources for the international medical community to go much further in actively allying itself with efforts to suppress mistreatment of prisoners. (2) Amnesty International concluded as long ago as 1996 that Israeli doctors working with the security services "formed part of a system in which detainees are tortured, ill treated and humiliated in ways that place prison medical practice in conflict with medical ethics".
