VIDEO: Swiss TV reports of IHF Congress

A Swiss TV crew was present at the IHF Congress in Cairo and several videos are available for viewing on line at this link: http://sport.sf.tv/nachrichten/archiv/2009/06/12/mehr_sport/demokratie_nach_den_regeln_des_pharaos

All of the videos are in German, but provide even non-German speakers a first hand look at the organization problems indicated in the Danish news report. The first video on the page provides a general overview of the events that took place at the Congress. The videos below that include interviews with Jean Kaiser, Dr Moustafa, and Peter Muehlematter. Additionally, there are a couple of videos that show the actual conference with the Swiss delegation not being recognized to speak, their seat microphones not working and finally the hand-held microphone shutting down, reportedly at the control of Dr Moustafa. Keep in mind that with translation requirements these “malfunctions” would have made it virtually impossible for non-German speakers to fully understand what was going on.
