See you there :)

About 7 days to Cheers Asian Satellite 2007.
No Draw
No Website
Seems like last year was the same case as well. What've happened to Singapore Efficiency we've come to love?

Or is Singapore now a strict practitioner of extreme JIT practices?

Singapore Satellite is different from Singapore Open. Relax lah..

The draw has been available thru www.tournamentsoftware.com (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com)

Suprisingly Zhou Mi takes part in this tourney ( 3 weeks in a row)

wow! Thank you for informing.
Can't wait for it to start! Another busy week i expect :p :D

Blur already, too many MAS, SIN, INA flags..

Santipab and Kovit are not participating *cry

There have no Indonesian players from Djarum after 2 tournament in a row, NZ and Vietnam Challenge. I think better they prepare for Phillipines or Thailand GP, mainly for rising star Andre and Wahyu.

MS only Fauzi Adnan, others never heard before.

WS only represented by Feby Angguni, 15 y.o, and Melicia Kurniawan, I have no idea, is she also from Pelatnas or P.B Djarum.

MD, Bona/Ahsan seem pushed by Pelatnas as 3rd or 4th MD after Luluk/Alvent bad performance in recent tournaments, Subekti/Fernando as well.

WD we still see Nadya/Devi Tika and Lelyana Dessy/Yunita Tetty. Yunita Tetty actually good player, but can't through top world.

XD represented by Tantowi/Yulianti, Indra/Dili, and Lingga/Devi. I think Indonesia can get the title from XD, specially from Tantowi/Yulianti.

In this week also held local tournament, Jakarta Open. That's why a lot of non Pelatnas player won't play in here although they prefer to play in here

Febby Angguni is youngest Pelatnas player and she also come from Djarum. Actually her performance wasn't too far with Maria Febe in U-15 local tournament when they played for Djarum. In my mind training in Djarum is much better than Pelatnas in this time

I thought Adnan Fauzi has already moved to SG?

Melicia Kurniawan was there competing in the Cheers Satellite last year and I watched one of her match against a Thai opponent. Sandy said she was from Tangkas and Liang Chiu Hsia is her coach.

Yup...Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan seem to be prepared for the more rigorous tourneys ahead. It will be good if they can win a title or two in the Satellite or Challenger levels. Fernando Kurniawan/Subakti need more time....perhaps another one or two years at the Satellite levels.

Yunita Tetty has already left Pelatnas and rejoined her old club, Suryanaga Gudang Garam. So, it seems that they want to experiment more with Nadya Melati/Devi Tika.

Tantowi/Yulianti will be a good backup pair...Lingga/Devi Tika as well.

In this week also held local tournament, Jakarta Open. That's why a lot of non Pelatnas player won't play in here although they prefer to play in here

Sandy, since you know well of Indonesian players and what tournamets they follow, I am gld if you can update Jakarta Open as well in 2007 tournaments. I think this tournament is good as Cheer Singapore Satellite since many Indonesian talented players participate. Thanks.

I hope I can see this tournament since I prefer to watch junior player, unluckily this tournament "only" national circuit since BWF decided only one Satellite event in every country (too bad, it was against to made badminton more popular and pull up the prize money).

Really? too bad:(....they should allow each country to have more challengers....good for players and money wide as well.....

So who's going?

Serla, Georgina, Venny, Loh, Badmania?????

wow! Thank you for informing.
Can't wait for it to start! Another busy week i expect :p :D
..if this tourney can challenge the just ended Vietnam Challenge tourney, in terms of being posted and read most in BC??..:confused::rolleyes::p:D;)

...only a few people(consistently posting), rather than the whole M'sian BC contingent, can "blow" a Challenge tourney "out of proportion":rolleyes:, let's see if *much less people* can bring the same effect..:p:);):cool:

I am in HKG currently, so won't be in SG to watch the Satellite like last year :mad: Anyway, I will be keeping track of the results. Strangely, like last year, no Sunday Final....

Ranking points for the Satellite tourneys are only 2500 for the winners, compared to Challenger events (4000). So, might not be that interesting....

Then what about Super Series....ranking points for the winners?

So who's going?

Serla, Georgina, Venny, Loh, Badmania?????

At first I thought I'll climb Mt Ophir in Johor with some friends during the Cheers tournament but the recent death of two Singaporeans there by falling trees put paid to our attempt. The Malaysian authorities decided to stop all climbing activities there until it becomes safe.

Now friends have asked me to join them for an overnight "kelong" (fishing house on high stilts in the sea) stay in Batam which I agreed. So I hope to watch some matches before I leave for the weekend trip.

We're celebrating Vesak Day (for Buddhists) with a public holiday on Thurs, 31 May and this week is a short vacation week for school children. Attendance at this tournament should be good especially when most of the players are still in their teens. :)

But I'm confident that we have enough BC interest to cover the proceedings, including pics. ;)

Then what about Super Series....ranking points for the winners?
I think 9000 points....

The ranking point for the winner for SS = 9200

I think 9000 points....

..what happened in here??..looks like the thread is "dead"..:rolleyes:
I came in expecting to see some new posts, but surprisingly this thread has gone pretty quiet...Where are all the M'sian fans, and the posts??...hmm, huangkwokhau must've been quite burnt-out from last week's Vietnam Challenge tourney??...:confused::rolleyes::p;)

This thread is not the "faint-hearted" :p

With Hau-ge and yannie around, I predict the number of pages to at least reach 30-40 :rolleyes:

Of course, ppl like Loh, Krisna, Sandy, and me will be chipping in as well from time to time :D

Hau-Ge is everywhere. You can see his postings all over... gosh, a salute him! ;)

look bad.anyway see you there 2moro buddy.i saw hashim beat a thai boy

According to the SBA website, the Cheers Asian Satellite Badminton Championships 2007 will be held at Singapore Badminton Hall from next Wednesday 30th May to Saturday 2nd June.

Details:
http://www.singaporebadminton.org.sg/announce/detail/CAS07RR.pdf

See you there :)

The first day for this Cheers Asian Satellite 2007 starts at 9 am and will probably end past 11 pm although the last match is scheduled to be played at 10.25 pm. Chong We Feng #12, a good Malaysian friend of some BC members, will do the honours and close the curtains for the last match against a qualifier.

Two meal breaks, one before 2 pm for lunch and another before 7 pm for dinner must be most welcomed by all to break the monotony :D.

Tomorrow will also be a long day, with some R1 matches still to be played till the early afternoon, but more supporters should turn up because it is Vesak Day (Buddhist celebration) a public holiday. But for the school children, the short one-week vacation has already started


Here is the link for the draw and the results (which have not been updated yet unfortunately):

http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=15083

For those who may be interested, a brand new Chinese temple in red and gold, has just been completed in Chinatown, around Banda Street, and will exhibit some rare Buddhist relics for the public to view during this celebration.

All five events, MS, WS, MD, WD and XD will be competed. Except for MS which caters to 64 entries in the main draw, all the other events will have 32 entries.

Leading the pack in MS is Malaysia's Roslin Hashim #1 and nine other Malaysian players who are also seeded up to 16. Senior players include Yogendran and James Chua. Recently crowned Vietnam Open champion, Tan Chun Seang is seeded 3rd behind Nicholas Kidd of England. And of the rest of the other seeds, 2 are from Thailand (incl. cute "Boon") and one each from England, Scotland (Alistair Casey), Hong Kong (Wong Wai Hong) and Singapore (Erwin Djohan).

In MD, the Malaysians continue to dominate with five seeded pairs out of eight, although Vountus Indra Mawan and Mohd Arif Abdul Latif are seeded second after Indonesians Bona Septano and Mohammad Ahsan. Maybe we should watch out for the Korean boys, Cho Gun Woo and Yoo Yeon Seong #5. But it could end up with the Malaysians fighting hard among themselves for a place in the SF.

I thought Zhou Mi is competing here in WS but could not find her name. So Julia Wong and Anita Raj Kaur of Malaysia are seeded one and two respectively.

The WS is the most evenly seeded with two players each from Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and Korea.

In WD the fight also seems to be more even with seeded pairs of two each from Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and one each from Indonesia and Korea. Malaysia's Haw Chiou Hwee and Lim Yin Loo head the list followed by Singapores Vanessa Neo and Shinta Mulia Sari.

Korea dominated the XD with three pairs followed by Indonesia, two and one each from Singapore and Malaysia. However Malaysians, Chan Peng Soon and Haw Chiou Hwee are the top seed.

I'll be at the SBA Hall soon to watch the proceedings from 7 pm. But I will miss the Finals on Saturday :crying:.

royal princess? what royal princess?

royal princess? what royal princess?

royal princess from thailand, but already knock out today.

the result has been up-date!!!!

royal princess from thailand, but already knock out today.

Singapore is grateful to Thailand's princess who is a staunch supporter of badminton not only in her own country but also in Singapore, where she has participated a few times. Although she lost in R1 of the XD, she is an excellent sporting ambassador for badminton and we look forward to seeing her again. :)

As promised, I will chip in from time to time :D

One INA casualty in XD in which Viki Indra Okvana/Dili Puspita Richi lost to Khoo Kian Teck/Frances Liu Fan 15-21, 15-21. :mad:

Febby Angguni has advanced to the main draw and will face Vivian Ho Kah Mun tomorrow.

INA's sole representative in the MS, Fauzi Adnan, has advanced to the second round. So does Mohd Roslin Hashim.

And for fans of Malaysian juniors: Darren Liew, Chan Kwong Beng, Kenn Lim, Vountus Indra Mawan, Beryno Wong, and Chong Li Qun have all progressed.

Yupiieeee!!!!!!

Pray for Chun Seang, Wei Feng and Arif later..

Badmania/Sabdy or krisna,

These players are pelatnas or club players:
Agripinna prima Rahmanto PUTRA
Zulfikar Djabir
Chrisna Adiwijaya
Syarief Syahmi Yapus

In original WS draw...Zhou Mi vs Lydia ( slot 17 and 18) but both WDN replaced by Yi Xin Foong(MAS) and Jing MOK ( SIN)

hhmmm... obviously Loh does not have school going children. School children have started the first week of their 1 month holidays. The championship might have the support of Malaysian students as they begin their 2 week break too. :cool:

There are 5 MS WDN.....
Now Fauzi and Riyo will meet 2nd seround....I never heard of this guy Riyo Arief.....

I guess they come from Suryanaga, not "big" name in local tournament.

Suryanaga had good relationships with Sg Badminton, a lot of players from this club represent Singapore this time, Erwin Johan, Ricky Widianto and others.

Pardon me! You're absolutely right. :) My youngest kid is in Polytechnic. I've forgotten about June, the long vacation apart from December, as I only saw the shaded part (indicating the holidays) of the last week of May in my calendar. I haven't flipped to June yet.

Hope you can bring along your kid for the tournament. :p

how many satellite events are there altogether?

Why are they so freaking slow at updating results??? They wanna update the other half after all matches have finished??? ZzzZzzZzzZ

I am afraid so...

ah, that's what happens for smaller events.
don't you have contacts in singapore?
i'm sure your sms will work, i remember you saying it doesn't work for vietnam.

how many satellite events are there altogether?

There should be one more...Malaysia Satellite...usually at the end of the year. A couple of the Satellites are now Challenger events, offering more prize money, like the recently concluded Vietnam Challenge and the Indonesia Challenge. There's also going to be another Korean Challenge at the end of the year, which complements the Osaka International Challenge earlier this year.

oh, is that it, i thought there'd be more than that .... they should have an only satellite series ranking table just like the super series, that should be sort of like the league 2 of badminton.

Well...I am only concerned with Asian Satellites and Challenger events :D
It's almost unlikely that Pelatnas players (unless Djarum players) are being sent to compete in those European tourneys. Indeed, there are many of them each year: Irish International, Wales International. Austrian International, Polish International, etc etc. But, I couldn't be bothered :p

The ones that are more "popular" and usually have Pelatnas representatives are the ones I have mentioned. Cheers Singapore, Smiling Fish Thailand, Robot Vietnam, JPGG Indonesia and Malaysia (sometimes India too). Also add the MILO Junior Indonesia Open :D

I just don't know from which clubs... :confused:

Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand should upgrade their current International Series [min $5000] to International Challenge [min $15,000]... Vietnam and Indonesia already have International Challenge tournaments...

I repeat... VIETNAM just had one. [I hope one of the Badminton Federation people from the 3 countries I mention above happen to be a B.C. member too]. The Vietnamese are not rich and have a short badminton history. Shouldn't the richer countries of ASEAN who have a longer history in badminton [like Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand] hold more prestigious events to accompany their GP Gold or Superseries...?!? :p :D

A higher prize money event will induce more and more people to play badminton professionally... :cool: Hey why not a Philippine Challenge?!? or Philippine International Series. ;)

Later, Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar should just arrange to organize one Future Series [min: no prize money] per country. Brunei... go straight to GP Gold please... :D You have the money and your Sultan loves badminton... need I say more?!? ;) Ha ha ha...:D

Actually, I don't know exactly what happened to the 1* Brunei Open that was around a few years ago... I have always wondered. Does anybody know?!? :confused:

There you go, with each of the 10 ASEAN countries actively support badminton... :p we will have enough tournaments that will bring ranking points, income, and match experience accumulation that will rival any other region in the world...

Thank you.....jia yao

There are 23 MAS in MS draw and 17 players got thru....very good..
There are 14 MAS pairs in XD draw but only 5 pairs went to 2nd round...not good..

It looks like it is more Malaysian satellite than Singapore....hehe

..looks like we're gaining some momentum here..approaching the 2500 read mark..Should pass the 3000 read mark by tomorrow...:p:cool:
huangkwokhau, will you still keep us up to speed, if say most if not all of the INA players are eliminated..:confused::rolleyes:;)

Its weird how Indos participation is very minimum while an oppurtunity to develop youngsters.......

Jeez, so quiet in here today. What happened to Hau-Ge? He must be sound asleep at this time I guessed.

Any latest results, please? Anyone knows?

went to see musical "Jersey boys"... result is being updated . Anita lost again and there are 4 Korean WS.

Pls check www.tournamentsoftware.com (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com)

Febbi Angguni is 2nd round and will play Gu ( SIN)...will be interesting macth...

Its weird how Indos participation is very minimum while an oppurtunity to develop youngsters.......

Hi Kido..remember jakarta open is playing this week....

oh yea dats rite man....

this is a bit silly....Jakarta Open should not clash with these satellites events....I mean these players needs to go to these tourneys to boost their world ranking....

can't believe Roslin is here again.....well he should just give up if he doesn't win this tournament.....I mean he should...with INA I am happy with 1 title here....well not really 2 will be good....

may be 1 titel from MD.....tough on WD and XD..I think Koreans will take those titles this time...I just hope that Febbi is playing well.....get to qtr if she could...will be great...

Maria Febe Kusumastuti and Febe Angguni are different 2 different ppl ya???
I didn't know dat???

cos they are both Febe lol.....anyone please upload pic of Febe Angguni

wow... mas lost 6 MATCHES IN A ROW!!!! thats great! :(

yeah, yesterday the singles players did well, today it appears that the doubles players are performing much better.

Most of the INA youngsters progress through the first rounds of their various events, except for Viki Indra Okvana/Tantowi Ahmad. Besides, Lelyana Candra/Yunita Tetty also lost to Kim Min Jung/Ha Jung Eun (as expected) in the first round of WD.

The remaining matches involving INA players today:

MS
Fauzi Adnan vs Riyo Arief -- the more well-known Indonesian should win and could meet the second seeded Nicholas Kidd later at night.

MD
Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan vs Nguyen Huy Giang/Nguyen Hoang Hai -- a breeze

Fernando Kurniawan/Subakti vs Worachon Bunwiroon/Songphon Jantharasom -- unknown Thai pair...I hope the Indo junior pair can win.

WS
Lee Yun Hwa vs Melicia Kurniawan -- bye bye Melicia...

Febby Angguni vs Gu Juan -- the 4th seed is definitely more experienced, but, I hope for an upset here.

WD
Nadya Melati/Devi Tika Permatasari vs Kim Min Jung/Ha Jung Eun -- an unfortunate early clash...another upset on the card?

Dili Puspita Richi/Yulianti vs Ong Sock Chin/Amelia Alicia Ancelly -- a tricky match against the 8th seed. But, I think Dili/Yulianti can win.

XD
Khoo Kian Teck/Frances Liu Fan vs Lingga Lie/Devi Tika Permatasari -- tricky, but Lingga/Devi should also win.

Malaysian Juniors MS (for yannie and other fans :D)
Chong Wei Feng vs Lok Chong Chieh
Darren Liew vs Chan Kwong Beng
Kenn Lim vs Vountus Indra Mawan
Iskandar Zulkarnain Zainudin vs Tan Chung Seang -- overwhelming favorites here :D

19 yo Chan Kwong Beng is playing well lately, he was in the ROBOT Vietnam Challenge semis last week. I think Darren Liew will be in trouble here. Well, you may never know. LOL :p

The first quarter-finalist for INA: Lingga Lie/Devi Tika Permatasari, after they beat Khoo Kian Teck/Frances Liu Fan 21-18, 21-14. Another tough test awaits tomorrow as they will face Koh Yah Sen/Vanessa Neo Yu Yan.

Preview for MS R16 to be played tonight:
Mohd Roslin Hashim vs Wong Wai Hong
Ashton Chen Yong Zhao vs Chong Wei Feng
Markus Wijanu vs Chew Chee Hau
Chan Kwong Beng vs Kenn Lim
Beryno Wong vs Tangonsak Saensomboonsuk
Erwin Djohan vs Tan Chun Seang
Chong Li Qunvs Mohd Arif Abul Latif
Fauzi Adnanvs Nicholas Kidd

Hmm...its possible that 5 out of 8 QF spots will be dominated by MAS Juniors :eek:

19 yo Chan Kwong Beng is playing well lately, he was in the ROBOT Vietnam Challenge semis last week. I think Darren Liew will be in trouble here. Well, you may never know. LOL :p

Your prediction was right.. I think Chan KB will turn 19 on Saturday during SIN Satellite, but I'm not sure.

Preview for MS R16 to be played tonight:
Mohd Roslin Hashim vs Wong Wai Hong
Ashton Chen Yong Zhao vs Chong Wei Feng
Markus Wijanu vs Chew Chee Hau
Chan Kwong Beng vs Kenn Lim
Beryno Wong vs Tangonsak Saensomboonsuk
Erwin Djohan vs Tan Chun Seang
Chong Li Qunvs Mohd Arif Abul Latif
Fauzi Adnanvs Nicholas Kidd

Hmm...its possible that 5 out of 8 QF spots will be dominated by MAS Juniors :eek:

Agree, but I predict Lim Kenn to beat Chan Kwong Beng.

seems CKB plays much better lately..definitely I would like him to win....I need to know morea bout MAS junior players....:D

I hope Fauzi can beat Kidd....at least we have one INA representative...:D
Tan Chun Seang has played 3 sets lately...hope he has enough ginseng with him....It will be tough match against Djohan

Maria Febe Kusumastuti and Febe Angguni are different 2 different ppl ya???
I didn't know dat???

cos they are both Febe lol.....anyone please upload pic of Febe Angguni

Of course they are different. Maria Febe Kusumastuti and Febby Angguni. Go to www.badmintonasia.org (http://www.badmintonasia.org), Febby Angguni represented INA last year in the Asian Under 16 championship... :)

XD Korean Kim/Yoo succumbed to SIN pair in 3 tight sets...a chance for Lingga/devi being in semifinal....

Agree, but I predict Lim Kenn to beat Chan Kwong Beng.

Let's wait and see. I have a gut feeling that CKB will win against Lim Kenn. He is adapting very well to Rashid's coaching and learned alot. Too bad he met TCS last week in the semis. Likewise, Lim Kenn seems strucked in the middle of nowhere of late, after winning the Sri Lanka Satellite last year.

Some pics from Today - Thursday, May 31st 2007

Taken by Georgina

Chong Wei Feng, Tanongsak (Geor's favourite THA junior!!!) and others..
I see Chin Tze Seong in one of the pics again..

Latest result:

Beryno Wong beat Tanongsak (don't ask me for the score)

the result is really slow.......

Well i just came back from Pulau Tiga Survivor Island and missed the early stages so far of this tournament.

Good to see that the Malaysian Juniors are surviving well so far too!

Cheers.

P.S. Thanks for the pics. Keep them coming please!

Latest result:

Beryno Wong beat Tanongsak (don't ask me for the score)
haha.....any other results that you can get???:D

I am pretty sure Tan Chun Seang can go to the finals. He shall meet Roslin there....

haha.....any other results that you can get???:D

Why they write Liew Daren LIEW??? Crazy.. It's either Liew Daren or Daren Liew..

No results now.. ZzzZzzZzz.. so I brb and buy icecream.. Sunny day in Denmark.. hehehehehe :)

The updates are very slow this time round. :(
My poor Tanongsak!

Why they write Liew Daren LIEW??? Crazy.. It's either Liew Daren or Daren Liew..

No results now.. ZzzZzzZzz.. so I brb and buy icecream.. Sunny day in Denmark.. hehehehehe :)

Maybe Daren got so distracted everytime the Umpire announced his name Liew Daren LIEW that he lost concentration and the MATCH!!!

Hope he bounces back soon

Yogendran lost to Arif!?!?!

'time to retire' some people were chanting in last weeks Viet Challanger discussion i remember.

I am pretty sure Tan Chun Seang can go to the finals. He shall meet Roslin there....

Should Tan Chun Seang beat host rep Djohan, then an all Malaysian quaterfinal Beryno vs Tan Chun Seang already secure at least 1 Malaysian in the semis.

Good luck to both and Project 2010-12 Malaysia

Just read the world ranking. BWF is really inconsistent. Singapore Open 2006 is counted this week but MO2006 held in July last year is not counted.

Yogendran lost to Arif!?!?!

'time to retire' some people were chanting in last weeks Viet Challanger discussion i remember.
Hope Arif and Teo Kok Siang are able to train with the senior team. Our junior must overtake Korean's, China's and Indonesia's junior.

What a world of difference a week makes. Vietnam challenge had such a buzz last week. Something so missing at the moment.

Results just updated.

wow, they are all just little kids!
roslin must feel really out of place there ...

cos INA participation is so minimum in this event....that why INA fans are not flooding this wall...

btw Adnan Fauzi beat Nicholas Kidd....above expectation lol.....

Well I do hope INA get 2 titles here...maybe from XD and MD....MD Looks more promising..

any info regardin Fernando Kurniawan n Subakti??? is that a Pelatnas pair?? 5th pair??

All Pelatnas juniors players progressed except for Febby Angguni who lsot to Gu Juan after she retired in the third set and Nadya Melati/Devi Tika Permatasari who lost to Kim Min Jung/Ha Jung Eun 9-21, 17-21.

The other non-Pelatnas MS who progressed to the QF is Fauzi Adnan who beat Nicholas Kidd in 3 sets 19-21, 21-11, 21-10. He will face one of the Malaysian Junior Mohd Arif Abdul Latif tomorrow.

No problems for the other Pelatnas WD Junior pair Dili Puspita Richi/Yulianti as they beat the 8th seed Chong Sook Chin/Amelia Alicia Ancelly 21-12, 22-20. As well as for the MD Junior pairs: Fernando Kurniawan/Subakti and Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan. Tougher tests will come tomorrow.

Quarter-Final Lineups:
MEN'S SINGLES
Mohd Roslin Hashim vs Ashton Chen Yong Zhao
Chew Swee Hau vs Cha Kwong Beng
Beryno Wong vs Tan Chun Seang

Mohd Arif Abdul Latif vs Fauzi Adnan -- chance for Fauzi to meet TCS in the semi-final!

MEN'S DOUBLES
Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan vs Goh Ying Jin/Azrihanif Azahar -- a tricky tie...but...I think Bona/Ahsan will take it.

Lim Khim Wah/Mak Hee Chun vs Cho Gun Woo/Yoo Yeon Seong -- expect an explosive match...the MAS WJC Semi-Finalist could spring a surprise here.

Fernando Kurniawan/Subakti vs Ong Jien Guo/Goh Wei Shern -- similarly, I think the MAS pair is more experienced...but...I hope Edo/Bakti win.

Khoo Chung Chiat/Chang Hun Pin vs Chan Peng Soon/Mohd Razif Abdul Latif

WOMEN'S SINGLES
Zhang Beiwei vs Lee Yun Hwa
Bae Youn Joo vs Tee Jing Yi
Ng Ka Shun vs Gu Juan
Kim Moon Hi vs Jun Jae Youn

WOMEN'S DOUBLES
Frances Liu Fan/Yao Lei vs Sannatasah Saniru/Vivian Hoo Kah Mun
Koon Wai Chee/Chau Hoi Wah vs Kim Min Jung/Ha Jung Eun

Dili Puspita Richi/Yulianti vs Yoo Hyun Young/Jung Kyung Eun -- I hope the INA pair wins again.

Julia Wong Pei Xian/Anita Raj Kaur vs Ho Bee Ling/Yeow Min Xie

MIXED DOUBLES
Chan Peng Soon/Haw Chiou Hwee vs Cho Gun Woo/Kim Min Jung
Mohd Razif Abdul Rahman/Chong Sook Chin vs Kim Young Sun/Yoon Hyun Young

Lingga Lie/Devi Tika Permatasari vs Koh Yan Sen/Vivian Neo Yu Yan -- not an easy match either...hopefully the INA pair wins.

Yoo Yeon Seong/Ha Jung Eun vs Lim Kim Wah/Ng Hui Lin

Wahahaha.. Monkey on the winning track..
Go Chan KB and Arif tomorrow!!!

cos INA participation is so minimum in this event....that why INA fans are not flooding this wall...

any info regardin Fernando Kurniawan n Subakti??? is that a Pelatnas pair?? 5th pair??

Yes, it is true that this Singapore Series seem to attract many MJs but not too many Thai 2nd layer and INA 2nd layer here... Last week at the Vietnam Challenge, the whole ASEAN contingent invaded Vietnam... Oh, and the Vietnam TV live broadcast helped a lot in giving a lot of BUZZ to B.C. members...

Fernando-Subakti?!? Yes they are the youngest Pelatnas pair. Both turn 19 this year.... [thus not eligible to compete as Juniors anymore at the Asian and World] 2007 Dutch Junior and 2007 German Junior champion... :) Fernando Kurniawan is the younger brother of Fran Kurniawan... ;)

Fernando Kurniawan is the younger brother of Fran Kurniawan... ;)

Any pic? I wanna see whether he looks like Fran. :p

I think Koreans will dominate this time..more likely they will take WS....
For WD, I hope Yulianti and puspita can handle the koreans....

too bad that febbi lost in first 2 tight sets.....

woah, we could see an all MAS semifinal in the MS after tomorrow ... i reckon only adnan fauzi can prevent this from happening.

:Dwoah, we could see an all MAS semifinal in the MS after tomorrow ... i reckon only adnan fauzi can prevent this from happening.

I hope so....:D:D MAS sent about 23 MS to this tournaments...better win the title...

For WS, Korean will take it this time...

Bulutangkis.com reported that PBSI is grooming Febbi Anguni for next level..Apparently Cheers Satellite is her 3rd outing after appearing Dutch Junior Open and German Junior open...Febbi lost to Viviene Hoo in Dutch Junior open in Qtr final in 3 sets.....now she got her revenge by beating Viviene in straught sets...too bad she lost and retired to more experienced Gu Juan...Her next tournament will be asian junior championship in Malaysia..

Off topic:

Bona/Ahsan ranked no.38 now
Andre Kurniawan is in 40th place.

I hope that they will participate in SS China in July...
if Bona/Ahsan wins Cheers Satellite, they may end up in top 30. Not bad for young pair which started last year.

It is weird that suddenly simon in 14th place behind Sony (13th), taufik is in 9th place...trying to figure out how BWF is working on the ranking...
Also tony/Gunawan in 2nd and Kido/Setiawan in 3rd place...

yea I am 3rd lol......jokes aside....

Bona/Ahsan is showing some promise here..
Fernando/SUbakti is always showing something

Frans Kurniawan?? who is his new partner??

is good to see Simon break into the top 20s

Unfortuately I am unable to follow closely the tournament for this year owing to work and the "unfriendly" schedules to us poor souls as most of the matches are played in mornings and afternoons during office hours.

I have to miss today's interesting semi-finals as they are played in the morning and not in the evening after office hours. And I won't be able to attend tomorrow's finals as well. :crying:

I managed to catch some evening matches during Round 1 and saw recently crowned Vietnam Open champion, Malaysian Tan Chun Seang easily beat Indonesian Agripinna Prima Rahmanto Putra 21-18, 21-11. I also saw a new face, Wong Wai Hong of Hong Kong who struggled initially to beat Malaysian Loo Yik Xiang 21-13, 17-21, 21-9.

As expected Chun Seang made it to the SF but the gallant Wai Hong was eliminated in the QF by none other than the No.1 seed, Roslin Hashim, 17-21, 21-13, 21-14 in 55 min. A very good effort from Wai Hong indeed.

Of the Singaporean singles players, Zhang Beiwen performed perhaps the best with her shocking defeat of WS top-seed, Malaysia's Julia Wong 17-21, 21-13, 21-17. However, Zhang will meet another very tough opponent in the semis today, Korean Lee Yun Hwa #6.

Then comes Ashton Chen Yong Zhao who sent another Malaysia No.12 seed Chong Wei Feng packing with another rubber 10-21, 21-13, 21-15.

Gu Juan deserves mention with her victory over Indonesian Febby Angguni 23-21, 19-21, 18-8 (retired).

Local boy Chew Swee Hau did well too when he knocked out Thailand's Pakkawat Vilailak#15, 21-19, 16-21, 21-16 and another Singapore import Markus Wijanu Dwi Christanto 21-14, 21-14. However Swee Hau will meet Malaysian Chan Kwong Beng in today's SF. Kwong Beng did well to stop compatriot Kenn Lim #13 in the QF.

Erwin Djohan #14 put up a good fight in the QF against Tan Chun Seang before losing 21-16, 17-21, 14-21. He had earlier defeated another Malaysian Kuan Kam Chung 21-11, 21-14.

In doubles, the new WD pair of Frances Liu and Yao Lei has continued to improve and secured a place in the SF by shocking Malaysia's No.1 pair, Haw Chiou Hwee and Lim Yin Loo 21-17, 21-19 in 27 min.

But our WD top pair of Vanessa Neo and Shinta Mulia Sari #2 was ushered out by the unseeded Malaysian pair of Ho Bee Ling and Yeo Mie Xie 21-17, 20-22, 21-18.

At least our WD did better than our MD who were all knocked out by the QF stage. That's why Singapore needs to import good doubles players like Eng Hian to help in this men's department!

In XD our regular pair of Vanessa Neo and Koh Yan Sen #4 did well to advance to the SF

But we need to watch out for the Korean juniors who have established themselves as very tough competitors! They only come second to Malaysia who sent in a large contingent. And Vietnam has slowly made its presence felt. Indonesia, unfortunately did not showcase more of their juniors this year.

By the time I post, the SF would be all over! :D

wat? its SF already? i tot its only the quarters now?

Aiyoh! I'm also confused. But they are right, this morning is only QF when I rechecked the schedule.

But can someone confirm when the SF will be played? I hope it is this evening so that I can go and watch, my only chance.

Newsflash...results are updated..finally :D

Roslin lost...Fauzi lost so 3 MAS in MS and 1 SIN

WD: Puspita/Yulianti beat Yoo/Jung ( KOR) in 3 sets...very impressive...a good chance to be in SF as I do not think Julia/Anita will be good enough for thi INA pair

In SF,:

MAS: 7 singles/doubles
KOR : 6 singles/doubles
SIN : 4 singles/double
INA : 3 doubles...

Roslin lost...Fauzi lost so 3 MAS in MS and 1 SIN

Thank you my friend.

I just called the SBA which confirmed that the SF will be played tonight from 7 pm. I shall be there!

First, INA players:
Lingga Lie/Devi Tika Permatasari beat Koh Yan Sen/Vanessa Neo Yu Yan in 3 tough sets 21-18, 20-22, 21-17. They are up against the Korean pair of Yoo Yeon Seong/Ha Jung Eun in the SF.

Fauzi Adnan lost to the fast improving Mohd Arif Latif 15-21, 16-21.

Dili Puspita Richi/Yulianti once again beat the Korean pair Yoo Hyun Young/Jung Kyung Eun 21-12, 9-21, 21-18. They will face Julia Wong Pei Xian/Anita Raj Kaur tonight.

Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan also progress to the SF after an easy victory over Goh Ying Jin/Azrihanif Azahar 21-7, 21-17 in the shortest match of the day so far (only 22 mins). They will repeat their matchup against Cho Gun Woo/Yoo Yeon Seong. The Korean pair triumphed after a titanic battle against Lim Khim Wah/Mak Hee Chun 25-27, 21-19, 21-14. With both Koreans playing again at night, Bona/Ahsan have an advantage here.

However, Fernando Kurniawan/Subakti lost to Ong Jien Guo/Goh Wei Shern 16-21, 19-21.

Oh...some upsets too...Mohd Roslin Hashim lost to Ashton Chen Yong Zhao 15-21, 18-21 :eek: 2 other Malaysian Juniors Tan Chun Seang and Chan Kwong Beng won as expected.

It will be SIN vs KOR in the WS as the favorites all won their matches.

Tan chun Seang again won matches in 3 sets.....

No shame!!! Tsk, tsk, tsk... losing to unknown and they are either backup or juniors in all 3 tournaments from NZ, Vietnam and S'pore. Gosh, i really cannot swallow this. I expected him to sweep aside all challenges and win at least win 2 of the 3 tourneys.

Better go back and dig a hole and bury his head inside like an ostrich.

SEMI-FINALS Lineup

MEN'S SINGLES
Ashton Chen Yong Zhao vs Chan Kwong Beng
Tan Chun Seang vs Mohd Arif Latif

MEN'S DOUBLES
Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan vs Choo Gun Woo/Yoo Yeon Seong -- I think this time, its likely for Bona/Ahsan to repeat their win over the Korean pair. The Korean must be very very tired after each player has to play 3 matches earlier.
Ong Jien Guo/Goh Wei Shern vs Khoo Chung Chiat/Chan Hun Pin

WOMEN'S SINGLES
Zhang Bei Wen vs Bae Youn Joo
Gu Juan vs Jun Jae Yun

WOMEN'S DOUBLES
Frances Liu Fan/Yao Lei vs Kim Min Jung/Ha Jung Eun
Dili Puspita Richi/Yulianti vs Julia Wong Pei Xian/Anita Raj Kaur -- a slightly easier match than the morning one, I think the INA pair should not have a problem of entering the Final once more.

MIXED DOUBLES
Cho Gun Woo/Kim Min Jung vs Mohd Razif Abdul Rahman/Chong Sok Chin
Lingga Lie/Devi Tika Permatasari vs Yoo Yeon Seong/Ha Jung Eun -- KOR has a slight edge here.

Guess what??? Roslin will be playing in Indonesian superleague with Taufik's club..SGS....:D:D..SGS should recruit other players...may be Wong Choong Hang...or even Tan Chung Seang

Wahahaha.. Monkey on the winning track..
Go Chan KB and Arif tomorrow!!!

Hahahaha... see what i told ya, yannie. I think he might be in the final and squaring off with TCS. But Arif is one tough junior, his never say die attitude would be hard for TCS in the semi tonight.

"he and his brother might as well quit and set up a shop selling used shuttercocks..."

Don't mind me, i am just furious from his HEADLINES lately, I sympathizes with him then, and I thought he did the right thing, but with the recent results in these smaller tourneys, and seeded No.1 and losing to a better established player i can understand, but to juniors and backups... names i have never heard off... ohhh please... I am lost for nice things to say. :mad:

I think if he sues BAM for missing S'pore & Indon SS due to entry balls up, he might win in a court of law but given recent results, BAM might be entitled to ask for change from the expenses he saved by not going!

Hoped he does better as M'sian WC wild card - can't help feeling WCH might have made a better wild card choice at least more consistent though not in the best form.

The players must be very tired playing 2 rounds of matches in one day. Wonder who planned the schedule of the matches. The tournament could have ended on a Sunday instead of Saturday.

I agreed...the problem with 64 format...they should start on tuesday for MS only.....but again..everybody has to play twice not Roslin only....

I'm having a problem trying to post as my earlier writeup has vanished into thin air and I could not recover it to post again. As I can't remember all that I have just written! Also I can't use the cute cookies for now. Hope it has nothing to do with Kwun's new format.

I wanted to express my joy to see some of Singapore's players represented in the SF tonight, starting at 7 pm. This gives me the only chance to watch and support them as I will be away tomorrow.

Of Singapore's 4 semi-finalists, Ashton Chen stood out for being able to knock out Malaysian veteran Roslin Hashim in straight games in the MS.

And in the WS, Zhang Beiwen showed her fighting spirit by coming back from a game down to beat tough Korean, Lee Yun Hwa #6 21-23, 21-18, 21-14. Her doubles partner, Gu Juan #4, also joins her by defeating Hong Kong's Ng Ka Shun #5.

Then in WD, Frances Liu and Yao Lei managed to dispose of Malaysians, Sannatasah Saniru and Vivian Hoo 21-19, 19-21, 21-6.

Just wonder how many of them can make it to the Finals tomorrow.

Although it has been a tiring two-match day for the competitors today, at least Sunday is free for them to get to know more of Singapore I hope.

Roslin performance really dissapointed me again and again.Losing and losing again even there are no top player in all his match.Maybe because of no top player and he think can win easily so become like this.He must really pick up his form again and treasure the chance of being able to play in the World Championship.I don't wish to see an early exit from him in the WC again.All the best to him.

No need to be disappointed. You must be happy if he lost to those youngsters. At least it proves that the youngsters are improving.....:D

she's 100 % still 'underage' :)

if u can understand indonesia language, here is the recent news about her:

Singapura Satelit
Febby Cari Pengalaman

Calon pemain masa depan Febby Angguni terus dipoles. Untuk menambah pengalaman, pemain berusia 16 tahun itu kembali dikirim ke turnamen Singapura Satelit, 30 Mei–2 Juni di Singapore Badminton Hall.

“Febby dikirim memang untuk menambah pengalaman saja. Sebagai calon pemain masa depan dia harus banyak mengikuti turnamen sekelasnya,” ujar pelatih Hendrawan.

Bagi pemain kelahiran Bandung, 8 Juli 1991 ini, turnamen berhadiah total 10 ribu dolar Singapura merupakan ajang internasional ketiga sepanjang 2007. Maret silam, dia gagal ke babak ketiga Jerman Terbuka Junior di Bottrop karena dijegal Hye Won-Eom (Korea), 11-21, 15-21. Sepekan sebelumnya, dia bertahan hingga perempatfinal Belanda Terbuka Junior di Haarlem. Dia batal ke semifinal setelah dikalahkan pemain Malaysia, Vivian Kah Mun Hoo, 10-21, 21-13, 17-21.

Perjalanan pemain klub Djarum ini di Singapura Satelit harus lewat kualifikasi. Namun, dua partai awal semua dia menangi. Setelah mengatasi Wei Han Tan (Singapura), 21-15, 21-14, di final kualifikasi dia mengalahkan pemain tuan rumah yang lain, Siti Mastura Bte Rahim, 21-15, 21-15.

Namun, di babak utama, Kamis (31/5), Febby kurang beruntung. Dia harus bertemu Vivian Kah, yang mengalahkannya di Belanda Terbuka Junior. Harapannya, Febby bisa membayar lunas kekalahan itu. Cuma, persiapan dia sedikit terganggu karena engkel kaki kanan cedera ketika berlatih di Cipayung.

“Fokus utama Febby tahun ini adalah tampil ke Kejuaraan Junior Asia,” sebut Hendrawan. Kejuaraan bakal berlangsung di Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 15-22 Juli.

Akankah Febby mendapat pengalaman penting dan gelar juara? (bhw)

WAH!!!

Is this Cho or Yoo??? We girls think he is goodlooking.

I'm having a problem trying to post as my earlier writeup has vanished into thin air and I could not recover it to post again. As I can't remember all that I have just written! Also I can't use the cute cookies for now. Hope it has nothing to do with Kwun's new format.

I wanted to express my joy to see some of Singapore's players represented in the SF tonight, starting at 7 pm. This gives me the only chance to watch and support them as I will be away tomorrow.

Of Singapore's 4 semi-finalists, Ashton Chen stood out for being able to knock out Malaysian veteran Roslin Hashim in straight games in the MS.

And in the WS, Zhang Beiwen showed her fighting spirit by coming back from a game down to beat tough Korean, Lee Yun Hwa #6 21-23, 21-18, 21-14. Her doubles partner, Gu Juan #4, also joins her by defeating Hong Kong's Ng Ka Shun #5.

Then in WD, Frances Liu and Yao Lei managed to dispose of Malaysians, Sannatasah Saniru and Vivian Hoo 21-19, 19-21, 21-6.

Just wonder how many of them can make it to the Finals tomorrow.

Although it has been a tiring two-match day for the competitors today, at least Sunday is free for them to get to know more of Singapore I hope.


Roslin is not in great form, physically and mentally. I think he has eased of training. So Ashton cannot claim too much at this point. Roslin is only a shade of himself last year.

I think it is Yoo...we watched it during Vietnam last week, right? anyway..not sure...

CHUN SEANG AGAIN TO FINAL MEET KWONG BENG... THAT'S GREATS AND FANTASTIC! WE WIL WATCH RASHID SIDEK STYLE vs MISBUN STYLE...HEEEE...

I Got From Coach Rashid...

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!

I told you TCS wanna belanja me, but I didn't have time that Thursday in All england. Too bad they left for MAS Friday morning at 10.45!!! So next time he will belanja me! If I meet TCS with Erin and Mei Ying, he will belanja us! :)

I Got From Coach Rashid...

Why is Rashid so snail in replying.. zzz..

I think yannie got that info from INA players who happened to be at the venue? Rashid must have been busy celebrating :D

seem like malaysia men singles future really bright now..

Wei not only CS, Daren must also take us to you-know-where!
*sorry off-topic*

I noticed that some cat fights are happening right now zzz..
Let the game begin :cool: :p :D

I hope meet Rashid & Misbun in smile on this monday.... at Setapak.

The result has been updated

KOREANS will take at least 2 titles..WS and XD ( All Koreans final)

For sure:

KOR : 2 titles ( WS and XD) as per my predictions.
MAS : 1 title ( MS)

The rest:

WD: INA vs KOR
MD: INA vs MAS

Hope INA can get 2 of them....

Oh i know that place where the players and coach always hang out. Kereta.
jug8man hangs out with them at that place also :D

Representatives in Final:

KOR: 5 singles/pairs
MAS: 3 singles/pairs
INA : 2 pairs

None from SIN...I guess INA is not doing bad at all....considering few players are in this tournaments...

Wah.. Blackrose you gonna meet the veterans? Isnt it better to meet up with young players?

For full results, why not check in http://bulutangkis.web.infoseek.co.jp Look into Berita Terkini colum.

Nothing unexpected so far for Team Pelatnas.
Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan beat Cho Gun Woo/Yoo Yeon Seong for the second time in a row...21-11, 26-24 in just over half an hour. They have a big chance to win their second title in a row with a Final encounter against Khoo Chung Chiat/Chan Hun Pin.

Dili Puspita Richi/Yulianti also win their match 21-10, 21-18 in 25 mins...and will face their nemesis Kim Min Jung/Ha Jung Eun in the Final again as expected.

Lingga Lie/Devi Tika Permatasari lost to Yoo Yeon Seong/Ha Jung Eun 17-21, 14-21. It's an all KOR Final in the XD as Yoo/Ha will face Cho Gun Woo/Kim Min Jung. Similarly, it's also an all KOR Final in the WS as Bae Youn Joo will face Jun Jae Youn.

The girls here will be happy to learn that their favorite MAS Juniors are playing against each other in the Final. It's Tan Chun Seang vs Chan Kwong Beng.

Happy? That's a bit under rated. We're celebrating like crazy!!!!!!!! :p :D

FINALS Lineup, matches to start at 5pm.

MEN'S SINGLES
Chan Kwong Beng vs Tan Chun Seang -- an all-MAS Juniors Final to appease the hordes of girls fans here :p TCS to win a second title in a row!

MEN'S DOUBLES
Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan vs Khoo Chung Chiat/Chan Hun Pin -- a tricky match, but Bona/Ahsan should win their second title also! At this rate, they will be ready to play in the SS as soon as next year. This year will be almost impossible.

WOMEN'S SINGLES
Bae Youn Joo vs Jun Jae Yun -- an all-KOR Final with Jun to win in her comeback!

WOMEN'S DOUBLES
Kim Min Jung/Ha Jung Eun vs Dili Puspita Richi/Yulianti -- as much as I would like the INA pair to win, I still think the KOR pair has the slight edge. Unless, they crumbled again like last week :cool:

MIXED DOUBLES
Cho Gun Woo/Kim Min Jung vs Yoo Yeon Seong/Ha Jung Eun -- another all-KOR Final and Cho/Kim to take the title.

If Bona/Ahsan wins....they have enough ranking to try out SS...I think PBSI wanted so bad that this pair can be solid 3rd pair after kido/Setiawan and Joko/hendra

If Bona/Ahsan wins....they have enough ranking to try out SS...I think PBSI wanted so bad that this pair can be solid 3rd pair after kido/Setiawan and Joko/hendra

I don't think so. Even AG/Joko are only competing in the SS this year. Last year, they were not even playing in 5-6* tourneys (except for the Djarum Indonesia Open since it's a home event).

We girls will go for the more experienced Tan Chun Seang. Hopefully his win will motivate other MJs! Plus, he must break into top 30 soon.

Well, good luck to Chung Chiat and Hun Pin too! And our eye candy Yoo Yeon Seong + partner. *ha

Bona/Ahsan still needs more experience playing against the senior pairs. Look at the NZ Open, they lost quite early. However, I predict that they will be sent to ALL the Gold GP Events to further boost their rankings top reach at least top 25 by end of the year. There's a good chance for that.

Haiya..so "genit".......:D:D:p go girls!!!

I think TCS will win because of his experience.
Come on CS! Second title in a row!

And our doubles pair must beat the odds! And Bona/Ahsan :D

I don't think so. Even AG/Joko are only competing in the SS this year. Last year, they were not even playing in 5-6* tourneys (except for the Djarum Indonesia Open since it's a home event).

I guess last year PBSI is kanker....:D:D definitely I would ike to see Joko/hendra as well as Bona/Ahsan to step up to higher tounaments...

Actually I am the one who think that the Korean is hot. So, I asked yan to asked.hehe..
Seriously he is HOT.. I hope he will win

I hope INA takes 2 titles...I am so dissappointed with INA peformace...Fernando Kurniawan and Subakti were sent home early.....bad peformance..........and in MS Adnan Fauzi can't even reach the semis.....well considering INA send their best juniors this results are dissappointing

Hello??? It's more or less EXPECTED that Edo/Bakti will lose to the more experienced MAS pair. To reach the quarter-final is already an achievement. Ooh..and Fauzi Adnan is not even in Pelatnas :cool:

actually INA's performance is not bad at all...only XD is below expectation but WD, MS are above expectation...plus look at the size of players that INA sent...MAS sent over 70 players, only 3 singles/pair in final...

Well I hope PBSI do something about this.....as the results in Vietnam is already very dissappointing with only 3 titles....we dun wanna end up with nothing here.

Well I hope PBSI do something about this.....as the results in Vietnam is already very dissappointing with only 3 titles....we dun wanna end up with nothing here.

come on !!! thats ridiculous!!......stay positive!!!..take time and 3 titles are pretty good considering Koreans/HKG/Thai/MAS/Taipeh players took part....

Well I hope PBSI do something about this.....as the results in Vietnam is already very dissappointing with only 3 titles....we dun wanna end up with nothing here.

LOL.. all the things you say are damn 'funny'..
3 titles are quite impressive, you should be proud.. in Vietnam INA was dominating like CHN in superseries..

http://www.badmintonforum.com/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=32641&stc=1&d=1180693221

His shorts colour so funny.. Look nto that nice..

well but really if they do this in super series level then its something to be proud of...but at this level??? not really......

considering there are no Chinese in these sattelite events...wat if the CHinese decided to participate then INA would just end up with none....look at Chen Jin n Andre Kurniawan.......dat tells you the difference.......

I might be going to watch the Final tomorrow if my schedule allows. PM me your mobile no if you want to get the live score/results.

is he out there chasing another one of LD's racquets again?

Yes after reading some of the comments, kido is most probably under the impression that Indonesia has the largest talent pool on Earth and the other nations [like MAS, KOR, HKG, JPN etc.] are puny badminton powers... equivalent of Samoa, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Iceland, Nepal,...

3 titles and a minimum of one runner up in every category in the Vietnam Challenge is a domination...!

2 finalist in the Singapore Series without the participation of Pelatnas' full 2nd layer force [no Andreas Adityawarman, Tommy Sugiarto, Bandar Sigit, etc.] is actually pretty decent... If those guys were around plus Firda, Nana, Maria Kristin [last year's Singapore Satellite winner], etc. Plus the Djarum crowd, like Andre, Wahyu, etc. I think INA shall do much better in MS and WS.

well, during all england.. me, alvin, elwin, a few other bc'ers and some badminton friends from cambridge met up with him and his family too. he's doing fine.. the last time i heard from him was like 3 weeks after all england where he told me he was having some exams, and too busy to go online.. until now i still haven't seen him online? busy boy :confused:

good point, it is exam season in england now, he must be taking his GCSEs or A-levels perhaps .... hmmm he shouldn't study all the time, some time to relax and reading a few threads to de-stress is always a good idea!

AGREE whole-heartedly. That kid needs to have a reality-check.

Looks like BAM was the one who done the right things for not sending Roslin Hashim to Super Series ...as he does not even perform in Challenge nor Satelite tournys.......his standard is dropping...and i think he should play in local tourny only...next time...and i am sad he is holding one ticket for the coming WC....what a waste....!!!!!!!!!!! Shame Roslin....malu again...and again...from NZ GP alll the way to Veitnam Challenge....and Singapore Cheer Satelite...NO EYE SEE...want to CRY!!!!!!
