AFC & Questnet™ raise the bar of Asian football

Kuala Lumpur, 18 February 2010: The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) today named international direct selling company, QuestNet as Official Direct Selling Supporter of the AFC Champions League, the region's top club competition.
"It gives me great pleasure to welcome QuestNetTM as a new partner of the AFC Champions League and into the fold of the Asian football family," said AFC President, Mohamed bin Hammam.
"These are exciting times for club football as we continue to raise the level of professionalism within our game here in Asia. With the 2009 season setting records for both attendances and viewers, we are glad to have a partner like QuestNetTM, who will further engage the football fans in this competition."
Bin Hammam's call on the representatives in this year's AFC Champions League to play a more proactive role in helping take Asia's premier club competition forward has become a clarion call for QuestNetTM to also do its bit for football in Asia and bring the game to even greater heights and larger audiences.
As the Official Direct Selling Supporter of the AFC Champions League, QuestNetTM views the sponsorship platform as an opportunity for much more than its own brand exposure. QuestNetTM is actively utilizing the sponsorship to do its part to support football on a regional level, both for the fans and for the football players.
"We are committed in our efforts to support football in the region, so that more youngsters will play the game and broaden the talent pool, helping to propel the region to the forefront of the international arena," said JR Mayer, Managing Director of QNet Ltd, the company behind the QuestNetTM brand. "Much like in our business, to achieve this dream means concentrated effort and dedication from everyone involved.
"We have been associated with the AFC Champions League since late last year, and our role as ‘Official Direct Selling Supporter' will continue until 2012. Our message to football fans and players alike is ‘Dream. Perform. Achieve.' I know that together, we can turn this vision into a reality."
QuestNetTM will be sponsoring several contests and promotional events to delight diehard fans. One of the contests will be the interactive ‘Goal of the Month' voting competition, which has been organized in collaboration with the AFC. Football enthusiasts can vote for what they consider to be the best goal for the month through the AFC's official website www.the-afc.com, with a chance to win fabulous prizes, thanks to QuestNetTM.
Additionally, football fans can expect to look forward to many more contests and promotional events throughout the year, taking their AFC experience to even greater heights.
The 2010 season of the AFC Champions League set to kick-off on 23rd February promises more exciting action from 32 of Asia's top clubs including defending champions Pohang Steelers. All matches will be broadcast on cable, terrestrial and satellite television throughout the region, as well as online via www.the-afc.tv, accessible worldwide.
This four-year agreement with QuestNetTM was sealed by World Sport Group, the AFC's exclusive marketing and media partners.

Wind, rain, sea pound eastern India as Cyclone Phailin nears

BHUBANESWAR: Strong winds and heavy rains pounded India's eastern coastline on Saturday, as hundreds of thousands of people took shelter from a massive, powerful cyclone expected to reach land in a few hours. The skies were dark - almost black - at midmorning in Bhubaneswar, the capital of Odisha and about 60 miles (about 100 kilometres) from the coast. Roaring winds made palm trees sway wildly, and to the south, seawater was pushing inland. By Friday evening, some six lakh people had been moved to higher ground or shelters in Odisha, which is expected to bear the brunt of the cyclone, said Surya Narayan Patro, the state's top disaster management official. About 12 hours before Cyclone Phailin's landfall, meteorologists held out hope that the storm might hit while in a temporary weakened state, but no matter what it will be large and deadly. Ryan Maue, a meteorologist at Weather Bell, a private US weather firm, said even in the best-case scenario there will be a st...

Rendezvous with France

ZIYA US SALAM This winter, warm up to a volley of French films. We want to project a different impression of French cinema to Indians. On show (Clockwise from left) Stills from “The First Day of the Rest of your Life”, “Paris” and “The Regrets”. Not long ago, Select CityWalk multiplex in South Delhi wore a distinctly busy look, quite unusual for the opening of an animation film. In a country that regards animation to be a substitute for a children’s film, it was a different experience to watch a black and white film with little to cheer, lots to ponder. The film was Marjane Satrapi and Vincent Paronnaud’s “Persepolis”, alternately evocative and provocative. A rare French film to find a commercial release in India, “Persepolis” found favour with discerning cinemagoers in the country. On another scale came “Asterix”. Riding on hype and hope in equal measure, this animation film too made a little dent at the box office. “We have new, emerging talent in animation. We are the third largest...
