"Dikatakan Djoko, bentuk tanggung jawabnya adalah akan segera mengevaluasi untuk melakukan pembaruan. "Semua akan kami ubah, pengurus, pelatih, atlet, sistem pembinaan dan rekrutmen" , kata Djoko"

Djoko said, as form of responsibility, he will immediately evaluate to perform reformation. "We will change everything, administrators, coaches, athletes, coaching and recruitment system".

I like that he mention to make changes. But I think he missed something, I thought he said that he is the one whose responsible? Should he be the first to be replaced then?

...and as victory said, we need to know from his perspective, in which way he was failing? If he does not know why and what he failed, how come he solve the problem?

Ahem, his tenure is going to end soon anyway.

Well, uh, he's unlucky that INA's first failure to grab OG gold medal happens during his term of office.

I don't think INA economy is doing extremely well. The economy is just so-so but looks good because other countries are not doing as well as they used to be.

The badminton problem is more of development problem(part of it because the system is too corrupted). But the people in PBSI blames lack of talent.

Economy is better could mean the talents have other avenues/other better paying job prospects.
When economy is not good with far less job opportunities, sports is seen as a way out. More money to develop but less talents interested in sports also make it hard to develop.

One thing is more open/global world. In the past, Indonesians mostly can only make a living in Indonesia. Now more opportunity and more offers coming from all over the world. Not just as badminton players, as researcher and other fields

Indonesia falters ignominiously at London

As the 2012 Olympics wrapped up after the two-week sporting spectacle, Indonesia languished in the doldrums as our failed athletes came home without any gold.

To add to the national shame, shuttlers Gresia Polii and Meliana Jauhari were ignominiously ejected from the Olympics for unsportsmanlike conduct. Along with three other pairs from China and South Korea, Greysia and Meliana were disqualified for play-to-lose tactics during group matches.

This continues the downward spiral in performance since Indonesia won two golds in Barcelona 20 years ago, both in badminton.

Since Barcelona, the gold collection had dropped although we somehow managed to cling on our one-gold haul up to Beijing four years ago.

With only one silver and a bronze, thanks to the weight lifting team, sport authorities concede that the country has paid dearly for relying too much on badminton while the athletes were suffering a dip in performance.

“We regret that we didn’t take any gold from the London Olympics because we only depended on badminton,” Youth and Sports Minister Andi Mallarangeng said during a ceremony for the Indonesian weight lifting medalists.

Indonesia's badminton hall of shame
http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2...all-shame.html

Coming to London with high hopes of retaining its gold medal tradition, Indonesia’s badminton squad was forced to swallow a bitter pill, not only because it ended up heading home empty-handed, but also due to two players being disqualified from the quadrennial event for unsportsmanlike behavior.

Greysia Polii and Meiliana Jauhari were two of eight players issued a black card by the referee during their July 31 match for “not using one’s best efforts to win a match”. The other six shuttlers were the South Korean pairs of Ha Jung-eun/Kim Min-jung and Jung Kyung-eun/Kim Ha-na as well as Chinese pair Wang Xiaoli and Yu Yang.

The Badminton World Federation (BWF) disqualified the eight players the next day, a slap in the face for badminton ever since the sport was officially included in the Olympics in 1992.

“We are trained by our seniors who have world-class experience. We are ready to lose, but not to be accused of cheating,” Meiliana said at the Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI) official website, pb-pbsi.org.

Greysia said she felt saddened by her disqualification. “But at least we tried and finished the game.”

Many demanded the BWF to immediately review the newly introduced round-robin system of competition in the Olympics. The BWF said it would evaluate the round-robin stage but made no promise of any changes.

Do you expect some major shake-up at the elections?

We shall see...but I hope some good people will come up and sit at the important posts like Binpres (Pembinaan Prestasi).

Just realize that Tommy Sugiarto is not in the participants list neither in China Master, Japan Open, and Vietnam GP. Where is he? Probably he purpose to 'hide' since his father will be compete to become chairman of PBSI.

agree, like you said he missed something, he is the one to blame for, but its kind of trendsetter in Indonesia if the leader failed to achieve something than they just say we are sorry we will make a change, but mostly they dont understand that the problem is with the leader itself i mean Djoko Santoso, thats is so pity

That is too bad.
I personally don't want Icuk to become PBSI chairman. But I do support Tommy's career growth.
