FIFA WORLD CUP 2010
Jun 12th
These are the Group of the World Cup 2010. One of them going to Rock South Africa in a few days time. Guess who would be the champion?
Besides that, FIFA World Cup live action for blind and visually impaired football fans.
Blind and visually impaired fans will be able to enjoy a special live-match experience at the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ in South Africa. Six stadiums will each have 15 seats equipped with headphones, and trained commentators will report live on the action happening down on the pitch. In addition, each of these six stadiums will have 15 seats that will be allocated to their sighted guides who will accompany them, while specially trained volunteers will provide assistance within the stadiums. This is a premier in South Africa’s sporting landscape.
The initiative, launched by the Swiss National Association for the Blind (SNAB) and the South African National Council for the Blind (SANCB) and financially supported by FIFA, is aimed at making the tournament accessible to all. FIFA Partner Sony is providing the necessary transmitters that will allow people to receive match-day commentary in the stadiums free of charge. The SANCB is ensuring that the tickets are fairly allocated and only a very limited number of tickets are still available for 19 matches via .www.sancb.org.za.
“Football is a universal sport and it must be accessible to everyone. We are therefore delighted to be able to make this unique live experience in the stadium also accessible to visually impaired and blind people. This project is another launching pad for South African sports and will create a legacy with services and facilities at football grounds for visually impaired and blind South Africans,” said FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter.
The Institute of Advancement of Journalism was responsible for sourcing, training and coordinating the audio descriptors, while the Academy of Sound Engineering students will perform the technical audio functions that will be necessary to ensure that the audio descriptions are correctly transmitted to the visually impaired fans at the stadiums.
This is a Huge CSR isn’t?? Well done FIFA.

It was a beautiful Monday, which i woke up early than usual. Bro makkez fetch me at my house abt 7.30am… it was busy day and the road was very busy… we have stuck in the traffic jam and reach KESAS abit late. From KESAS we followed bro Durai’s car till the the school.
Chemman-salai
chemman-salai was terrible, the cars totally changed…
Once reached, we unload the things that bro Durai bought for them and the meals (MeeHun and KFC) as well. While the kids were waiting there, we served them the meals and drinks. The teachers were there to help us to arrange and manage the kids. There was some naughty boys. Biasathane, they all very happy to be there and to be with us all….not everyday they get this kind of treats.
Once they pray, they started to eat… to surprise bro Durai, we bought the cake on his 25th birthday… thought of let him cut the cake 1st before the kids start eat, but we late. Without make it too late, bro shashi make an announcement and tells everyone about the day was Bro Durai’s birthday. here is the pic….

And also, we did gave them a mineral water dispenser as well since the school seems to be needing it badly. Finally, we went to the ‘tapak perhimpunan’ where the kids expressed their gratitude and thanked us for our assistance (actually to our donators!). Donators, Hats off for you all guys!!!
