I'm sure Malaysian players can speak some English. It should be quite common to come across English in their daily lives. At the very least, they would know "Serve, 1-21, Love, Out, Over, Game, Match, etc...".

It's not that bad... Some Malaysians can speak english in sentence, it's just that they will add on some Malay, Cantonese, Chinese or some dialeks..

That's Manglish

I met LCW and rest of the malaysia team when they were at kuching for the Thomas cup training. I spoke chinese with all the chinese players, but i didnt talk to Kuen Beng Hong. I do know that WCH speaks very fluent english, and was surprised when he spoke english to me.

Ahh.. I always wish I'd get to meet them. I'm always wondering how they're like off court, how they speak, what they do besides badminton...

And I SO wanna meet KBH.

KKK does speak english very well....

Yeah, I remember what Choong Tan Fook had said during the interview... "Ya, thank you very much to my fans.. My fans (pointed up) up there!"

Something like dat in a very heavy manglish accent

The Chinese Malaysian players mostly speaks Mandarin and of coz Bahasa Malaysia. Most of them also speak the Hokkien dialect coz most of them come from the Northen states.....

KBH speaks Mandarin, Hokkien and Bahasa fluently....he can also converse in simple English....and of coz cantonese as well

hope that answers the question.......

I am quite sure that KBH's ability to speak different languages has nothing to do with his teeth. Therefore thread closed.
