It was my honour to meet up with Uncle Loh, hcyong, Aileen, Hauge, FastDrop, Abedeng, etc at the ABC in JB. We had great time watching the SF (except the LD vs CJ match) and the MD matches were intense and thrilling. The Korean pair defeated kkk/tbh and deservedly to set up the final clash with Chandra/Nova. It was the match of the nite. IMHO, Nova/Chandra is better than Chandra/Tony coz Nova is lightning fast at net and solid defence.

After the game, we went to NY Hotel to meet up with Hauge. Suprisingly we saw quite a number of players (CJ, LHI, Park, and INA players). Oh yeah, we saw LYB (with TianBinYi) at the road side trying to catch a cab :eek:

Thanks to Hauge that we managed to have dinner at the Thai Restaurant with some of the INA players. Though we were sitting on different tables, it was a close and personal experience with INA players n officials. (oh yeah, Hendrawan was there too)

I'll upload some pics and Uncle Loh will contribute more pics :)

where is the pics...cannt wait to watch it..pls upload....

Just to add on. I was on my way to toilet and unexpected ran into a RTM1 interview with my fav double specialist, Chandra Wijaya!!! There were only few people at the corner and I didnt have my camera or handphone with me!!! :crying::crying::crying: I was so sad but at least I got to shake his hands :p

OK, that's all from my contributions. I'll be going to JB again tmr morning and hopefully to grab more nice photos with players, esp Chandra. Just love his playing styles :)

Posted by Loh:

Some more pics of our gatherings.

tjl_vanguard (Loong from Kuching), Jessica and the rest of us met at the stadium entrance. Jessica waited for us patiently at 1.15 pm to hand us the tickets. We were held up with the jam at the Malaysian customs as Singapore passport holders took a much longer time to clear. However foreigners do not require to fill in the white form as from Jan 2008.

For dinner we gathered at the Thai Restaurant near New York Hotel where many of the players stayed. We took the opportunity to take some pics with some Indonesian, Malaysian and Korean players.

LYB was seen hailing a cab for a night out with some of his coaches. They could be celebrating that China managed to get Chen Jin into the Olympics as the third MS, having beaten Lin Dan decisively for a place in tomorrow's finals. At the adjacent court, poor Park and Sony had to exert their full energies in a 3-gamer before Park managed to steal into the final.

Vanguard, Rudy and Fastdrop stayed at the same hotel too whilst Loh joined abedeng to stay overnight at the Pulai Springs Resort. The others made their way back to Singapore to return again for the Final tomorrow.

I'm so jealous of u guys!:(

Wow, our Jimbo is taller than most of the players.:eek:

Finally, we managed to see our straight A student, Jessica's "real face".:D

tjl_vanguard and Aileen, nice to meet u guys!:)

Btw, who's the one sitting right in the centre in the last photo?

Thank you so much jimbo and Abedeng for the gathering and photos. jimbo looks as fit as the players. Did you guys manage to see other BCers inside stadium, like pjswift and Sealman?

Looking forward to more photos to come :)

Huh, that's nothing compared to Yu Yang almost bumping into me on her way out of the toilet ........:p

One particular unhappy incident:

After the MAS vs KOR match, there were some crowd disturbance, targeted at the Malaysians. Koo and Tan had to be escorted out of the stadium.

This is getting out of hand, it would not have happened 20 years ago. Yesterday the better team won, and to their credit Koo and Tan didn't stop fighting.

It took, ahem, Jimbo and Loh :p to pacify them at the hotel, hence the pics shown here.

Things were thrown, all right. Civil defence and the police had to step in .....

Of course, we had to enjoy ourselves. Had dinner with Korea and Indonesia squad at a restaurant nearby.

Rexy came by to say goodbye to us at the hotel, the MAS squad had to leave almost immediately. Good man, Rexy.

After everything's over and when Louisa and jimbo settle down to their everyday mundane life, they will reflect on the thrill and fantastic experience they gained from the TC encounter with so many BC friends in Jakarta that they will say to themselves:

"What a rare privilege to be there!. If only luyi80, Loopy and Jessica could be with us to enjoy this once in a lifetime experience ..."

Sweet Memories ... ;):):p

He he, but then 'uncle' Loh, there are some of us who have $$$ considerations, so however tempting... it is not possible, means not posible :D:p

Oh yeah, what was the "crowd disturbance" after MD Semis ? ABedeng said things were thrown, hope nobody got injured. Tsk, tsk, getting rowdy nowdays, the fans.

Thanks again guys for capturing and sharing those pics (some of them should be put in the "Pictures with Professional Players" thread)..;)

agree. it is a rare and golden oppurtunity to meet online mates face to face and watch badminton together.:rolleyes:

Precisely. Just like Mastercard's commercial, the experience is "priceless" :) We can always earn back the $$$ but the experience and time spent with ppl sharing the same interest, is simply "priceless" :eek:

That's why I decided to join them for JKT trip :D See u in JKT :p

huhu.. get to online at last!!!! :D im in sabah now though.. haha

i cant upload my pics yet.. cuz i 4got to bring my cable along! :(

guys, c u in SO... glad to meet all of ya.. its been reli lovely and special thx to Loh n Jimbo for da "offer" hahah :D

I think this would be the most anticipated TCUC gathering ever.

Jimbo got so tempted by abedeng n Uncle Loh durin dinner after ABC Finals... ahaha :D

Hahaha... i think so... Loh and Adebeng is good in luring people.

but they still couldnt tempt me enough to got JKT.. but to SO hahahaha :D

but they still couldnt tempt me enough to got JKT.. but to SO hahahaha :D

Dont worry.. i think we will have the opportunity to meet up someday.

yea... definitely! :D

..very well!..Good to see all of you guys in the pics; as always looking good. But ehm, what happened to pjswift (and pjswift's kaki baddy??) Also, did Jessica go with you guys for the dinner? I didn't see her in the last pic??..:confused:

I m looking for her picture, too.....now, got to wait till 15/5/08, say around 11pm to see her...:D

..hmm, our Cat lady should not miss this one, knowing well cat usually likes seafood...:);)...Btw, is Hau-ge going to treat everyone at the Pondok Laguna gathering??...:rolleyes: :p;)

Not I want to miss this, but, I do not own a flight company....so sad....Loh, Xinguy, Hcyong n Jimbo are facing the same problem, too...in our group, altogether, 6 person can't attend...

Yeah, I like seafood very much...but to meet all my friends there are more tempting than the foods....:D

Lets see the TC/UC's schedule and we will rearrange the Lunch...not necessary on May 15....

Really had a great time at the ABC, finally get the chance to meet up with Uncle Loh and Hcyong after 1 year. :D And really happy to meet up with the other BCers like jimbo, jessica, tjl, abedeng, fastdrop and huang. Nice to meet you guys.

Btw, to those who donno me, I'm Aileen since they did not state my 'nickname' in the picture.:p

Jimbo got so tempted by abedeng n Uncle Loh durin dinner after ABC Finals... ahaha :D

Hahaha... i think so... Loh and Adebeng is good in luring people.

You don't know half of it. We had to use good cop-bad cop tactics of "threats and persuasions". Under "mortal fear", Jimbo capitulated under duress of "break an arm" threats. Didn't want to lose his jumping smash abilities ....... :p Yup, we are inspired by Li Yongbo .... :D

I must say that Abedeng and Uncle Loh are good in "persuading". May be they should join MLM or insurance lines :p

Huh, I am fully trained and Geylang certified, always in control even if surrounded by gals .....:p. Even the sight of Yu Yang almost bumping into me didn't affect my "calmness".

Out of curiousity, can I wear the ABC Yonex t-shirt in the most hostile stadium? :eek: Would I get smack by the local fans? :eek::D I promise NOT to shout "Malaysia Boleh...!" :p

Make time man! It is not everyday you can have this privilege of meeting so many of us in Jakarta. The next TC wont be held there for one! :D
I would spare my time to met you all, but I must tell you that i'm A Woman..not a man, and of course I won't missed this apportunity...:)

Well, definitely you have to wear something, can't expect to go naked, can we? :p

You need to do like Hau-ge in KL World Championships last year. He sat beside noisy Malaysian fans and "meditated" silently. Worked like a charm, our Uncles failed to finish off Kido/Setiawan despite leading big .....

For you, you are only good for VVIP pass and Kopi Luwak. :rolleyes:

...and the eagle might be tempted to take a ride from Bro Din when he crosses into Malacca before picking you and Jess up at JB. And Bro Din can be lured to pick up Miss Ipoh before heading south. Surely eagle and Miss Ipoh could share a room with Jess in Jimbo's apartment. You can have a room all by yourself. That is if Jimbo remains as generous as he was in JB. :D

Afterall, it is only for a night, at best two, over the weekend.
