Lawyer Thamer Al-Jadaei said that reasons for the challenge were submitted to the court of cassation yesterday, which is expected to start looking into Barrak’s appeal very soon. Jadaei said that they will file a petition to release Barrak on bail only after a judge is appointed for the case. This could take a few days. In the first hearing, the judge will decide whether Barrak should remain in jail until the court issues its verdict or freed on bail pending trial. Barrak was handed the tough sentence by the appeals court for allegedly insulting HH the Amir at a public rally against amending the electoral law. Police arrived at Barrak’s residence late Sunday night, and after brief negotiations, he agreed to go with the police fol- lowing an emotional farewell by dozens of his support- ers, who carried him and vowed to protest to secure his release. Opposition activists immediately launched a campaign on Twitter calling for a huge demonstration of 100,000 people to press for Barrak’s freedom, but no details were provided about the protest.

  • RIGHTS CLAIMS THROUGH MUSIC a Study on Collective Identity and Social Movements
    RIGHTS CLAIMS THROUGH MUSIC A study on collective identity and social movements Dzeneta Sadikovic Department of Global and Political Studies Human Rights III (MR106S) Bachelor thesis, 15hp 15 ETC, Fall/2019 Supervisor: Dimosthenis Chatzoglakis Abstract This study is an analysis of musical lyrics which express oppression and discrimination of the African American community and encourage potential action for individuals to make a claim on their rights. This analysis will be done methodologically as a content analysis. Song texts are examined in the context of oppression and discrimination and how they relate to social movements. This study will examine different social movements occurring during a timeline stretching from the era of slavery to present day, and how music gives frame to collective identities as well as potential action. The material consisting of song lyrics will be theoretically approached from different sociological and musicological perspectives. This study aims to examine what interpretative frame for social change is offered by music. Conclusively, this study will show that music functions as an informative tool which can spread awareness and encourage people to pressure authorities and make a claim on their Human Rights. Keywords: music, politics, human rights, freedom of speech, oppression, discrimination, racism, culture, protest, social movements, sociology, musicology, slavery, civil rights, African Americans, collective identity List of Contents 1.

  • History of Badminton
    Facts and Records History of Badminton In 1873, the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party at his country house in the village of Badminton, Gloucestershire. A game of Poona was played on that day and became popular among British society’s elite. The new party sport became known as “the Badminton game”. In 1877, the Bath Badminton Club was formed and developed the first official set of rules. The Badminton Association was formed at a meeting in Southsea on 13th September 1893. It was the first National Association in the world and framed the rules for the Association and for the game. The popularity of the sport increased rapidly with 300 clubs being introduced by the 1920’s. Rising to 9,000 shortly after World War Π. The International Badminton Federation (IBF) was formed in 1934 with nine founding members: England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Denmark, Holland, Canada, New Zealand and France and as a consequence the Badminton Association became the Badminton Association of England. From nine founding members, the IBF, now called the Badminton World Federation (BWF), has over 160 member countries. The future of Badminton looks bright. Badminton was officially granted Olympic status in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Indonesia was the dominant force in that first Olympic tournament, winning two golds, a silver and a bronze; the country’s first Olympic medals in its history. More than 1.1 billion people watched the 1992 Olympic Badminton competition on television. Eight years later, and more than a century after introducing Badminton to the world, Britain claimed their first medal in the Olympics when Simon Archer and Jo Goode achieved Mixed Doubles Bronze in Sydney.

  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Bulutangkis Adalah Salah
    PUSAT PENDIDIKAN DAN PELATIHAN BULUTANGKIS USIA DINI DI SEMARANG TUGAS AKHIR PERIODE 127/49 BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Bulutangkis adalah salah satu cabang olahraga menggunakan raket yang dimainkan oleh dua orang (tunggal) atau dua pasangan (ganda) yang berlawanan (wikipedia). Bulutangkis merupakan cabang olahraga yang terkenal di seluruh dunia dan sangat populer di negara-negara kawasan Asia termasuk Indonesia. Di era tahun 80 hingga 90-an, Indonesia menjadi salah satu negara yang sering menorehkan tinta emas di gelaran turnamen Bulutangkis tingkat Internasional seperti kejuaraan dunia dan olimpiade. Nama- nama seperti Liem Swie King, Christian Hadinata, Hastomo Arbi, Rudy Hartono, Alan Budi Kusuma, Ardy B. Wiranata, Ricky Subagja, Rexy Mainaki, Candra Wijaya dari sektor putra, dan Ivana Lie, Susi Susanti, Yuni Kartika, Minarti Timur, Ellen Angelin adalah sederet nama atlet yang berjaya di era 80 hingga 90-an. Nama terakhir yang berprestasi di awal tahun 2000-an adalah Taufik Hidayat yang meraih olimpiade pada tahun 2004. Sepeninggal Taufik Hidayat, Indonesia seakan tidak memiliki penerus yang mampu berbicara banyak di level Internasional. Hal ini menjadikan PBSI (Persatuan Bulutangkis Seluruh Indonesia), selaku badan organisasi bulutangkis Indonesia harus berpikir keras untuk tetap mampu bersaing dengan negara-negara lain di level Internasional. Dalam satu dekade ke belakang PBSI tengah giat untuk melakukan regenerasi atlit profesional untuk membangkitkan kembali supremasi dan kebesaran nama Indonesia di level Internasional. Yang menjadi pekerjaan rumah bagi PBSI adalah mencetak calon atlet yang siap berkompetisi di level Internasional dengan melakukan pembinaan usia muda. Hal ini dapat dicapai dengan meningkatkan kualitas pembinaan dan pelatihan bulutangkis dengan cara melakukan seleksi calon-calon atlet muda berkualitas yang dilakukan di setiap daerah.

  • Sport, Politics and Ethnicity: Playing Badminton for Indonesia1
    SPORT, POLITICS AND ETHNICITY: PLAYING BADMINTON FOR INDONESIA1 Colin Brown2 Faculty of Media, Society and Culture Curtin University of Technology The scholarly study of sport – in which ‘sports are viewed as cultural products that develop within sociohistorical contexts’3 -- is now well-established. However, the literature suffers from two important and related defects. One of these defects is its geographical focus. As van Bottenburg notes in his study Global Games the scholarly literature on sport: ‘is mainly limited to developments in the Western world. Information on the other continents is at best fragmentary, often collected in wide- ranging surveys’.4 In particular, relatively little has been written on sport and politics in the Asian context. South Asia is perhaps best served, for reasons which are mentioned below, but even here the coverage is slight compared with that of Europe and North America. The second defect is that the sports which have been studied are overwhelmingly those of European/North American origin, and in which peoples from these two traditions are still dominant. Very little has been written on sports where Europeans and Americans are not dominant, or at least major participants. In part, this undoubtedly reflects the cultural and ethnic origins of most sports scholars. But there also seems to be an assumption operating here that the important sports are the 1 This paper was presented to the 15th Biennial Conference of the Asian Studies Association of Australia in Canberra 29 June-2 July 2004.
