    Basically I don't have all the information about Tjun Tjun.
    You can see his performance record in IBF's website.
    What I know is :
    He played with Johan Wahjudi all the time.
    They (Tjun Tjun and Johan Wahjudi) were second pair of Indonesia after Christian/Ade Chandra. They became the first pair after Ade Chandra injured in traffic accident. After Ade returned, both of these pairs were the top of the world untill 1980.

    Tjun Tjun was also a very good single player.
    He was a runner up of All England in 19.. beaten by Rudy Hartono.

    You can see Tjun Tjun in 2 matches in 1980 China vs Ina final,

    but partnering Ade.

    Tjun Tjun & Wahudi together with Denmarks' 60s Hammergard Hansen & partner hold the record for most all england wins, 6 or 7 times champions.

    Does anybody know if Tjun Tjun is the same like Tjoe Tjong Boon ? Chinese Tjun Tjun should be 梁春生.

    I remember Tjun Tjun was reunited with his long lost sister in 1980 in Singapore in the Ina vs China friendly.

    I think her sister's name was Liang Chiu Xia or sth (I forgot). Her sister returned to China in the 50s or 60s whilst Tjun Tjun

    remained.Tjun Tjun maybe an Indonesian name . Liang later returned to Ina to coach the women's team in the 80s.

    Tjun Tjun played 3rd single in the 1976 Thomas Cup series after Ilie Sumirat was not in form.

    I think it is difficult to get info especially about Indonesians as they are reluctant to discuss some sensitive issues unlike others and also these people have simply been forgotten

    Search PBSI site, they used to have pages from a book called the history of Ina badminton.



    There is a video somewhere in rapid-share of the 1981 AE where Tjun Tjun and Johan Wahudi won their last AE.
