My daughter sends me memes about the basketball federation, but I don't need a chart to know the real problem—last monsoon I watched a promising boy from our lamkhai give up practice because his family couldn't afford the bus fare to the state camp. Tam, they say we lack facilities; I say we lack a country that doesn't make a child choose between eating and dribbling. Until the federation starts asking who gets hurt when they cut funding, I'll keep watering my orchids and listening to Meitei radio, phijigee.
