Oldhand 06-14-2008, 12:24 AM Rudy and I decided to get one up on madbad. :rolleyes: Since we are unlikely to beat him in the SO PAW game, we thought we better beat him in getting to his darling player Hwang Hye Youn first before he did. :D[...] Wow, that pic with HHY is certainly a coup :p Quite a few here would give their badminton arm to be in a pic like this one ;) This must have been before her loss to WMC - she can't have been smiling after that rout :rolleyes: Oldhand 06-14-2008, 12:26 AM Correction!!! now bene told that teh BROTHER of SULTAN BRUNEI will be watching the final..... OT: Is he the one that's in all sorts of trouble in London? That brother is quite estranged from the Sultan. Perhaps this is another brother? ants 06-14-2008, 01:41 AM gosh...everyone must be curious about your "taste' now...:p:p singapore is so unique...not even one??!! Hmmp.. Singapore is unique.. and there is only one in Spore. huangkwokhau 06-14-2008, 08:40 AM OT: Is he the one that's in all sorts of trouble in London? That brother is quite estranged from the Sultan. Perhaps this is another brother? :D:D I have no idea........ willie 06-14-2008, 11:17 AM The scandalous brother is the youngest (was finance minister, sued by the Sultan, exile in the UK). The Sultan is the eldest (believe is now keeping a grip on $ also), the second is the foreign minister, and the third is the sport minister, all 4 of them. Not sure if they still hold the same posts but possible multiple key ones. My guess is the sport minister coming to town. Oldhand 06-14-2008, 11:29 AM Thanks for the clarification, willie :) Loh 06-14-2008, 11:56 AM As though the lucky prize of a red Mazda is not enough to attract attention, during the SF, there were also "yellow" badminton players in all shapes and sizes to make the head turn. :) Probably a PR exercise to connect the spectators to the dominant corporate colour of Aviva, the main sponsor. ;) Oldhand 06-14-2008, 12:53 PM The only thing missing is a yellow shuttlecock :D Sealman 06-14-2008, 01:11 PM Rudy and I decided to get one up on madbad. :rolleyes: Since we are unlikely to beat him in the SO PAW game, we thought we better beat him in getting to his darling player Hwang Hye Youn first before he did. :D wah uncle loh, why are you hugging her? i'm so jealous :) huangkwokhau 06-14-2008, 06:45 PM As though the lucky prize of a red Mazda is not enough to attract attention, during the SF, there were also "yellow" badminton players in all shapes and sizes to make the head turn. :) Probably a PR exercise to connect the spectators to the dominant corporate colour of Aviva, the main sponsor. ;) :D:D.....I think most of them are tennis players..:D:D...the way they hold the grips...INA official teased Vita to teach them how to hold grip in proper way...;) huangkwokhau 06-14-2008, 06:45 PM LCW and TH were in Yonex booth to sign authographs,,,,,, olympic 06-14-2008, 07:21 PM LCW and TH were in Yonex booth to sign authographs,,,,,, Good buddy indeed. huangkwokhau 06-14-2008, 09:55 PM I was right that Koo Pei Ting is pregnant now....been told that Chen Hong spends most of their time in Taiwan.... huangkwokhau 06-14-2008, 09:56 PM Alos been told that Chinese Taipeh women double may also retire after Olympic...the ones who are in final today...they will teach after retiring.. litobear 06-14-2008, 10:32 PM Singapore is unique.. and there is only one in Spore. and that person must be YOU!:D:p:D:p jasonmarc 06-14-2008, 11:20 PM Uncle Loh......so lucky hah........u hold HHY like that....so envy lah..... hahahahaha george@chongwei 06-14-2008, 11:42 PM wah, loh... damn lucky wor u!:p george@chongwei 06-14-2008, 11:44 PM As though the lucky prize of a red Mazda is not enough to attract attention, during the SF, there were also "yellow" badminton players in all shapes and sizes to make the head turn. :) Probably a PR exercise to connect the spectators to the dominant corporate colour of Aviva, the main sponsor. ;) are they real ppl or juz a mascot??:p looks like real and not real:D Oldhand 06-15-2008, 05:07 AM So did this (http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=899876&postcount=515) actually happen after the MS final? :D litobear 06-15-2008, 05:31 AM i saw hau ge on tv during the ws match...hahaz... huangkwokhau 06-15-2008, 08:52 AM So did this (http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=899876&postcount=515) actually happen after the MS final? :D Haiya...........:(:( that was yesterday after he beat Gade... madbad 06-15-2008, 12:42 PM Rudy and I decided to get one up on madbad. :rolleyes: Since we are unlikely to beat him in the SO PAW game, we thought we better beat him in getting to his darling player Hwang Hye Youn first before he did. :D So here goes and we got an additional bonus when we saw Mew Choo sitting on a chair and cutting some plasters with a scissor on our way out for dinner. Naturally we took the chance to have a photo with her. ;) Speechless, envious [SIGH] ..... :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying: Just joking. Uncle Loh, how is HHY as a person? Does she speak any English? Did you try to talk to her?

Sealman 06-15-2008, 10:19 PM I found the ushers too inflexible. The Danish players went into the Corporate Box area to sit behind the court where Juhl/Frier were playing in the WD quarterfinals, to support their teammates. Unfortunately the ushers told them to leave immediately. The reason given was that the seats were reserved for guests. Come on, there were so many empty seats in the Corporate box. Really do not see the need to chase them out. Last year I witnessed Bao Chunlai being asked to leave the coporate box area. What a shame. If only I had an extra guest pass, I would have given it to him. I believe the guests would love to get close to the the players. I certainly would not mind HHY sitting next to me! ants 06-15-2008, 10:20 PM I found the ushers too inflexible.

Can't escape! :eek: I know why cause I was seated in the same section as the VVIPs, only a few rows higher. The cameras naturally will focus more on them and inevitably I was also caught in the process. Jimbo was seated nearer to them and would have captured more of the limelight! Actually not very comfortable as jimbo had said. During the XD finals when I shouted on top of my voice "Come on ENGLAND" (my PAW was on them to win against Rudy's INA), all eyes were directed upwards to my face.

When the MC (my fren) announced him as the winner, Wilson was in the restroom. His gf was trying to call him and buy time so that Wilson would not miss the Mazda. While the MC was counting down for the last call, his gf slowly walked down to the podium. In the end, Wilson managed to hold on to his "fire" in the toilet and rushed to claim his new Mazda. My fren said to me that Wilson almost become the first man on earth to pay S$49,000 for a pee :eek::D and Wilson knew that... :p kwun 06-17-2008, 09:18 PM Ah this is the real one!

In Istora, I'll make sure Rudy is by my side always so that should I forget and cheer for the opposition, they will only see Rudy's face. :eek: But Rudy will probably shout for Krisna for help. :D:D:p abedeng 06-17-2008, 10:23 PM Hau-ge was generally at the players area in the finals. Even massaged Simon's shoulders to extract more power out of his smashes ..... hey Hau-ge, maybe you massaged the wrong muscle ..... kakakakaka. We (pjswift and I) managed to have a session with Misbun, pj even got his phone number. Zhang Jun still had many fans, I think he has lost weight a bit compared to before.
