Asian Badminton Championships: Semi-Final (01/04)

[badMania]

It's April Fools today tomorrow....

MEN'S SINGLES

Lee Chong Wei vs Park Sung Hwan -- shouldn't be a problem for the in-form Lee.

Chen Yu vs Boonsak Ponsana -- expect a tight match and I pick the Thai to win.

MEN'S DOUBLES

Hoon Thien How/Tan Boon Heong vs Hwang Ji Man/Jung Tae Kuk -- a good victory for the young Malaysian pair. They will continue to rise under Rexy's coaching. They might yet again surprise, although I pick the Korean pair to win.

Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah vs Luluk Hadiyanto/Alvent Yulianto (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- tough to pick...nevertheless, I hope the Indo pair can win this match and go on to win their first tournament in almost 1.5 year.

WOMEN'S SINGLES


Wang Chen vs Jiang Yanjiao (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- not an easy match...and I pick Wang to win.

Chen Li vs Kaori Mori -- similarly I pick the more experienced Jap to win, although I won't be suprised if it turns out to be an all-China final yet again.


WOMEN'S DOUBLES

Lim Pek Siay/Joanne Quay Swee Ling vs Chien Yu-Chin/Cheng Wen-Hsing -- the more experienced Taiwanese pair to win.

Pan Pan/Tian Qing vs Du Jing/Yu Yang (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- Pan/Tian is definitely on the rise....but the more experienced Du/Yu will win.


MIXED DOUBLES

Nova Widianto/Lilyana Natsir vs Zhang Wei/Yu Yang -- a tricky tie for the world champion...but they are far too experienced to lose.

Hendri Saputra Kurniawan/Li Yujia vs Sudket Prapakamol/Saralee Thungthongkam (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- Sudket/Saralee should prevail against the the CG bronze medallist. Hopefully both my favorite pairs will meet in the final :D That should set up yet another thrilling final.

[Dreamzz]

I agree with everything except for MD, I'm going for HTH/TBH to win given their confidence will be on a high.

[alloh]

I agree with everything except for MD, I'm going for HTH/TBH to win given their confidence will be on a high.

:D Malaysia Youngster always shock you one time only, after that no more exciting game from them. Example: Gan/Zakry & Lin/Tazari.
Don't expect too much on them.
For me, the only pair can reliable is Choong/Lee.
KKK/CCM ..... errrrr....... not in the top of world yet?

[alloh]

It's April Fools today tomorrow....

Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah vs Luluk Hadiyanto/Alvent Yulianto (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- tough to pick...nevertheless, I hope the Indo pair can win this match and go on to win their first tournament in almost 1.5 year.



This is a very important match between them. It probably will increase their confident when meet at TC. I believe both of them will be the 2nd Doubles at TC.

[xijiayu]

Rexy has really done something in the MD department. We can see a lot of improvement from four youngsters lately, eventhough the consistency remains questioned. For MS, we see the danger here: only LCW is reliable based on his current form. WCH may retired in a year or two, KBH has to justify his world ranking (he has not beaten any top players). Hafiz has not found his old day since winning AE. We are really lack of strength in MS dept. now. Hope BAM will do something and bring up more single boys from Rashid's team.

[madbad]

MS
Lee Chong Wei vs Park Sung Hwan - LCW 95%. No brainer
Chen Yu vs Boonsak Ponsana - Boonsak 60%. Boonsak hungry

MD
Hoon Thien How/Tan Boon Heong vs Hwang Ji Man/Jung Tae Kuk - MAS 51%. Home court advantage pushes them over the edge
Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah vs Luluk Hadiyanto/Alvent Yulianto - MAS 60%. Going to be easier than expected

WS
Wang Chen vs Jiang Yanjia - Jiang 51%. I like Jiang :D
Chen Li vs Kaori Mori - Kaori 55%. Experience wins out

WD
Lim Pek Siay/Joanne Quay Swee Ling vs Chien Yu-Chin/Cheng Wen-Hsing - TPE 55%. MAS will be close but that's it
Pan Pan/Tian Qing vs Du Jing/Yu Yan - Du/Yu 65%. Du Yu think they'll lose? :D

XD
Nova Widianto/Lilyana Natsir vs Zhang Wei/Yu Yang - INA 70%. INA wipes 'em out
Hendri Saputra Kurniawan/Li Yujia vs Sudket Prapakamol/Saralee Thungthongkam - SIN 55%. Battle royale with on-form SIN edging it out

[extreme_kaki]

Malaysia Boleh!!!

[yingcheng]

WOMEN'S SINGLES
Wang Chen vs Jiang Yanjiao (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- not an easy match...and I pick Wang to win.


staying neutual this time..but i think wang chen 55% vs Jiang 45% (as this game is not playing in china..:p )

[**KZ**]

nobody's watching?rtm 1 sucks

[badMania]

Phew...Nova/Butet is through to the final after a straight-forward victory over Zhang Wei/Yu Yang. Sudket/Saralee also won in 3 sets: 14-21, 21-19, 21-9. So, the top 2 seeds meet each other tomorrow in another thrilling final. My money is still on Nova/Butet.

MIXED DOUBLES FINAL

[tutu_h]

How is it looking in the 2nd set tutu_h?

don't know yet,

now is commercial break :D :D :D

[**KZ**]

RTM really sucks....the commentary sucks....the video quality sucks....even viewing the matches suck....they have this 60 yr anniversary thing tat ppl sms to congragulate them...it leaves such little space to view the match...why not broadcast it on astro? RTM kiasu...

[tutu_h]

don't know yet,

now is commercial break :D :D :D

walau eh:mad: :mad: :mad: , after commercial now news .....this RTM is really sucks. if not bcoz of Badminton, i will never switch to this channel.

[Bresis]

Is RTM gonna continue with badminton after news?

[tutu_h]

RTM ..... I wanna see LCW not this malay lady talking about Rancangan ke-9 Malaysia.

[**KZ**]

plus....more criticism...the commercial breaks are long and once in a while u get news....wow...i really feel like walking into their office and give them a bad mouth....if they cant broadcast the games live....give astro broadcast lar....stupid....no creativity at all.....how to attract viewers? this is pathetic

[**KZ**]

oh oh....and after the commercial breaks you still have to watch and listen to a malay lady and man talkin crap...before they'll return to the game

[**KZ**]

9th malaysian plan....have better local channels...

[**KZ**]

they should've returned to the games now have they? its 4.20 already....if its astro there will be no breaks when the game is going on...and even if they have a commercial break they'll go straight back to the game as soon as the latest 10 secs before the game begins

[x50926x]

Now it's already the women's singles.
Kaori Mori: 7
Chen Li: 7

[KourKK]

RTM is bloody useless.. its about 20 minutes of badminton, 20 minutes of news, and 20 minutes of two idiots talking ****... totally pointless.

[KourKK]

bleh.. so any clue who won the MS game?

[wl2172]

I would say Lee CW. If dragged to 3rd set, they would still be playing.

[tutu_h]

they should've returned to the games now have they? its 4.20 already....if its astro there will be no breaks when the game is going on...and even if they have a commercial break they'll go straight back to the game as soon as the latest 10 secs before the game begins

this is the difference bt. the channels governed by government and private.

government wants to send message to the public
while private channel wants to earn more advertisments.

[tutu_h]

just heard that RTM will "Beri Laluan" for the blah blah....

so i guess, no more live!!!

[streamyx]

wat a stupid RTM, the lady & the Guy commantater really stupid. No wonder lah 60 years o ready still not improve.... I am angry due to the LIVE broadcast stop at set 2 of LCW... suck suck...
Any 1 know the result of LCW?? Pls post here.

[Sammy]

this is the difference bt. the channels governed by government and private.

Well, its the 60th annivesery of RTM. Talking crap is very common here especially in this "special" day. Talking crap seems like able to attract more viewer than badminton well at least they think so...:D

[ahjie]

chong wei won the game
21-15 , 21-15

[Sammy]

wat a stupid RTM, the lady & the Guy commantater really stupid. No wonder lah 60 years o ready still not improve.... I am angry due to the LIVE broadcast stop at set 2 of LCW... suck suck...
Any 1 know the result of LCW?? Pls post here.

I dont think RTM gonna show anymore live ABC match today. They gonna do crap talking live all day. I guess tomorrow gonna be the same. 10 min of live final 50min of crap talking....hahaha....and Ass-stroke....loves other sports a lot more than badminton. I heard Singapore is showing ABC live. Anybody from Singapore to update latest score?

[Carbonexer]

I only watch RTM twice this year. Commonwealth and now this and on both occasion it made me boils and mad. Do u know why? Well its because RTM is run by some stupid pig brainers who swear not to eat pig because they have enough pig brain in their head.

I can't believe that stupid RTM can exist for 60 years. How stupid can they be? Well how about showing your country best player playing half match and then crossed over to show that 2 stupid newbie who don't even know what crap they are talking. And then they show you that stupid hourly repeated news. Is that stupid hourly news that important. Use your human brain RTM and stop using your pig brain.

[x50926x]

KAori Mori won 1st set 21-17.

[Bresis]

What about the other MS match between Chen Yu and Boonsak??

[x50926x]

Chen Li currently leads 6-2.

[tutu_h]

What about the other MS match between Chen Yu and Boonsak??

Boonsak won 24-22, 21-13

[Carbonexer]

That 2 newbie talking crap nonsense was the worst scene I have ever seen from my TV in my life. And that stupid RTM keep showing some stupid and retarded looking old man talking over their stupid 60 years of existence in this world. Well I think they themselves can't believe that they could ever exist that long.

[x50926x]

Chen Li leads 9-5.

[hsengsping]

Boonsak won 24-22, 21-13

[Sammy]

KAori Mori won 1st set 21-17.

See how effective is Singaporean TV. RTM? What is RTM? RoTiMamak?

[alloh]

[x50926x]

Chen Li leads with only a point 12-11.

[**KZ**]

no more broadcast....now they are showing ACPC instead of ABC

[tutu_h]

they r collecting taxes from all the malaysian to support this channel. I would rather pay my tax "ELSEWHERE" :D :D :D

[hsengsping]

LCW is going to be hard to beat tomorrow. Crowds braying and I don't think he will want to lose the unbeaten in Malaysia for .....years bragging rights just yet and despite talk about keeping some in reserve for TC, he will be out there slogging his guts out if necessary tomorrow/

[**KZ**]

grrr....i'm so frustrated i wanna blow the tv up

[madbad]

they r collecting taxes from all the malaysian to support this channel. I would rather pay my tax "ELSEWHERE" :D :D :D

Don't let the "tax police" catch you saying that. They have eyes everywhere:rolleyes:

[Carbonexer]

See how effective is Singaporean TV. RTM? What is RTM? RoTiMamak?
If there is any Singapore players playing, Singapore TV will cover that live. They are so proud of their achievement. But look at RTM. This channel is like 30 years behind. They only half proud of LCW and that's why they only show you half the match. Let me tell you. If the player now is a malay player, they will cover the whole match.

There is simply no comparison between Singapore TV and RTM. One is run by a pig eater and one is run by a retarded pig brainer.

[tutu_h]

no more broadcast....now they are showing ACPC instead of ABC

what is ACPC? give me some hints. :D :D

[**KZ**]

stupid RTM...let us all curse RTM...

[x50926x]

Kaori Mori currently leads 19-18.

[alloh]

I think this is the strategy of Boleh-Lan goverment to make RTM a suxk channel. Then those pig leaders can tell to those Boleh-land people that government give a big amount of subsidy to survive the organization.
Behide that, who knows how they share the money?

That's why all organization in Malaysia lost money one. Let's see RTM, KTM, MAS, Telekom, PBA, Tenaga, Plus Toll, PROTON.....

[x50926x]

Kaori Mori is in the finals! 21-19 in the last set.

She won 21-17, 21-19.

[**KZ**]

what is ACPC? give me some hints. :D :D

ACPC=Asian Coconut Plucking Championship...
when I changed back to RTM i'm seeing ppl plucking coconuts instead of playing badminton

[**KZ**]

u get to watch it in Sing.?
damn....what bout MD results?

[hsengsping]

Carbonexer - lets concentrate on badminton. I agree with you in many respects but....

[tutu_h]

grrr....i'm so frustrated i wanna blow the tv up

don't ....... u should blow the RTM up instead of ur own TV. remember u also pay 5% Tax for ur TV and income tax to the goverment? :D :D :D

[**KZ**]

haha....gud 1...though now my dad's payin instead of me...thanks for giving some tips for survival in bolehland

[tutu_h]

Carbonexer - lets concentrate on badminton. I agree with you in many respects but....

u r right. Carbonexer, if u r malaysian, u will most probably be a visitor to the ISA with all the words u mentioned just now. :p :p :p

[x50926x]

ACPC=Asian Coconut Plucking Championship...
when I changed back to RTM i'm seeing ppl plucking coconuts instead of playing badminton

Really there's such a thing? I think it's quite cute...anyway, men's doubles just started! Match eveyone is waiting for! Mas VS Ina!

[Carbonexer]

Can someone tell me who were that 2 stupid noob sitting there talking crap. I wanna tell them to fly kite somewhere else. And can someone please tell me RTM is run by which stupid retards. "It" should just step down and "balik kampung tanam jagung".

I only can afford a 14" tv which is ok for my room but those pig brainer decided to be "kay khiang" and shrink the live window to 7". I could hardly see where the shuttlecock goes. Why are they doing that? Well so they can show you their stupid SMSes sent by some other stupid pig brainers.

Let me ask everyone. Is it really necessary to show the news repeated every hourly? Is it they got nothing else to show? Are they ever aware that their best player from their own country is playing now in a semi-final match? Or was it because that player so happened to be a chinese?

I wanna let the whole world know just how stupid this RTM can be.

[x50926x]

u get to watch it in Sing.?
damn....what bout MD results?

Yup, on Starhub cable Supersports. 1-all now.

[**KZ**]

pls update the results...I'm unable to watch the matches becos of RTM!!

[**KZ**]

[x50926x]

Choong/Lee still leads..12-7.

[zia.ufrida]

Choong/Lee still leads 9-7. Boy, it's exciting!

would u plz keep posting. we really want to know this very interesting match (luluk/Alven)

[Bresis]

[**KZ**]

do we need to decorate our antenas too? like paint them nicely...put a nice jalur gemilang on it?

[alloh]

This channel is like 30 years behind. They only half proud of LCW and that's why they only show you half the match. Let me tell you. If the player now is a malay player, they will cover the whole match.


:D Yes... agree~!
I still remember that when I was in primary school, our school book even have told us the sidek brothers won the World Championship (or All England?).
But they never tell in the book that the Malaysian-Chinese & Indian won TC for Malaysia in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd TC?
If a Malay acteticathlete won any big title in the sport.... then you will see how the government & media report it for several weeks. This is what I saw on Hafiz when he won AE.

Again, Malaysia Boleh ~!
Because you are the Boleh-Land, everthing sure boleh~!
That's is the reason I LOVE Malaysia.... keranamu, Malaysia :D

[x50926x]

Msia who????????

Choong/Lee lah..now 13-7, still malaysia leading.;)

[tutu_h]

ur damn rite bour that.....complain them in newspaper lar....oni know how to broadcast useless programs....since when is coconut plucking more important than badminton in malaysia?

coz they tot they can make some money by selling the coconuts but forgotten that they r losing more money while selling RM1 for each coconut.

in Hokkien, we call it "Catch the tortoise and run away the Turtle". (lia ku zao pi)

[x50926x]

would u plz keep posting. we really want to know this very interesting match (luluk/Alven)

Sure, sure. My pleasure. Now Choong/Lee still have a 5 point gap. 15-10.

[x50926x]

A smash towards Luluk wins Choong/Lee another point! 19-14 now. Malaysia leading of course.

[badMania]

So far so good...all my predictions are correct :D

MEN'S SINGLES FINAL
Lee Chong Wei vs Boonsak Ponsana -- candidate for match of the final day. Lee to win...but it will not be a stroll in the park.

WOMEN'S SINGLES FINAL
Wang Chen vs Kaori Mori -- finally...we don't have an all-China final! Wang to win as the ABC seems to have brought her good fortunes.

[x50926x]

21-14! Choong/Lee took the first set! ;)

[hsengsping]

Sure, sure. My pleasure. Now Choong/Lee still have a 5 point gap. 15-10.

Keep up the good work. We are into ACPC here.

[tutu_h]

Do you know whats is ISA? Institute of Stupid Academy.

we have another name for it ....... Ikut Suruhan Aku (Follow my instructions) :D :D :D

[Carbonexer]

Luckily we have this forum. In a way, this forum is so much more efficient then that RTM. I fell so much better now. At least I know the score and I know malaysia is winning now.

After all I can't really see where the shuttlecock goes after RTM shrinked my 14" tv to 7" window.

[Bresis]

21-14! Choong/Lee took the first set! ;)

YES!!!! Go Malaysia!! :D I hope they can go on to win the 2nd game

[zia.ufrida]

21-14! Choong/Lee took the first set! ;)

[hsengsping]

So which third Msian pair to Japan for TC? Would do the young TBH/HTH confidence no end of good if they win tomorrow. Malaysia has 5-6 good MD pairs at present - some of them should concentrate on MXD perhaps.

Hahaha....you can't put jalur gemilang it will automatically switch to RTM. :D

I think MAS should produce more potential good single players. I dont see any good MS players coming up. Cant always rely on LCW, WCH and some veteran players.

I hardly watch RTM anymore since the day they are not the sole TV stations. But I still dont see any good TV station around. Astro is the best so far but they are not into badminton

[Carbonexer]

3 m'sian in the finals. If they are Singapore players, everyone in Singapore and southern m'sia will get to watch all the matches live. But since thats not the case, we will get half match live. The other half is for that hourly repeated news.

I realised that RTM 1 is always showing news most of the time but too bad thats the only m'sia channel I can watch from Singapore. Grrr...... and I am too poor to have cable tv.

[alloh]

RTM1 having a lot of news (almost each hour) maybe goverment wanna to keep the reporter's job. If not there will be more people planting grapes (jobless).
And RTM1 always showing those old man, YB/datuk speaking idiot thing.
WTF ..... showing LIVE for half?!?!?! We could only see LCW played in 1st game, and even not reported the result.

[Carbonexer]

And RTM1 always showing those old man, YB/datuk speaking idiot thing.
You have said what I was contemplating to say.

There are a lot more of those :o/:( queueing in the line waiting for their turn to appear in RTM.

[muziqalicious]

congrats to malaysian pair...
now i shall mourn for my country :( :( :(
