PERAIH JUARA DUNIA BULU TANGKIS TIBA DI TANAH AIR

Metrotvnews.com, Tangerang: Peraih dua gelar juara dalam kejuaraan dunia bulu tangkis di Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Senin (20/8) sore tadi telah kembali ke Tanah Air. Keharuan terutama terasa saat Markis Kido, salah satu pebulu tangkis yang berhasil membawa emas bagi Indonesia, keluar dari gerbang kedatangan internasional Bandara Soekarno-Hatta, Tangerang, Banten.

Ibu kandung Markis, Yul Asteria dan sejumlah saudara yang telah menunggu sejak siang, langsung memeluk haru Markis. Yul juga mengalungkan rangkaian bunga pada Markis sebagai ucapan selamat.

Menurut Yul, selain mengharumkan nama Indonesia kemenangan Markis juga merupakan kado terindah bagi ayah Markis yang kini sedang sakit. Menurut Markis, kemenangan ini diharapkan sebagai pemicu untuk meraih lagi gelar juara pada olimpiade mendatang.

Selain Markis dan Hendra, nampak juga pasangan ganda campuran Nova Widianto dan Lilyana Natsir yang juga berhasil meraih emas dalam nomor ganda campuran. Namun, kedatangan peraih gelar juara dunia bulu tangkis Malaysia ini tidak disambut khusus oleh pihak KONI maupun PBSI di bandara Soekarno-Htta.(DOR)

In Southeast Asia, that is a lot of money because of the more affordable cost of living. That amount will go a long way over there compared to here in the US.
