Kido / Hendra Leave Pelatnas

[ctjcad]

I don't know the exact contents of the deal but from what I understand, it is
US$ 1 million per person per year..... with additional performance bonuses and benefits that amount to another US$ 0.5 million per person per year if they achieved everything...

..where does that $160k/yr deal part come in?..is that the base contract?..is that $1 mil per yr/person contract guaranteed? if so, no wonder both Markis & Hendra jumped ship.

Close to US$ 100000 per person plus bonuses.....the problem is Yonex was playing game as usual....to squeeze them asthey thought they could benefit from new rules from PBSI ( to protect Yonex)

..which one is it? i'm a bit confused now?..

..the numbers mentioned in the article (previous page, $160k/yr) and from Krisna ($1 mil/yr/person) are typos/incorrect??..

according to Hendra at Jawa Pos newspaper last week, their contract with Flypower-Arbi is close to Rp 1 milyar/year/person which is bigger than what they got from Yonex.

Rp 1 milyar = Rp 1.000.000.000 = Rp 1 billion
then using current currency-rate : 1 US$ = Rp 9300
so it would be US$ 1.000.000.000 / 9300 = US$ 107.000 = US$ 107k

In Bahasa Indonesia :
1 juta = 1.000.000 = 1 million (in English)
1 milyar = 1.000.000.000 = 1 billion (in English)

wow 0.o
didnt know flypower-arbi was that successful...being able to sponsor djarum and kido/hendra with that much amount of money...this is exactly what INA needs, a local product emerging internationally...well done!

..thanks for confirming and the news source. That sounds closer to what Hau-ge mentioned.

So, i guess, the report in the article (previous page: $160k, maybe they got the numbers switched around) and the numbers mentioned by Krisna are typos/incorrect??..

Sorry, my mistake! $100,000 per person per year is correct.... I miscounted one "zero"...

In Semifinal of All England 2010, when Kido finally smashed to the net realizing their failure to advance to the Final, he gave a glance to his new SkyPower racket and flung it to the ground. Very impressive.

What does that got to do with this thread? It's usual for a player to show their temper or frustration especially during the tense moment when u finally lost the match just because of a shot.

Or u love the way he flung his flypower racket to the ground? Give me your racket, maybe i can flung it more impressively for you

Just check the video...

Kido's reaction after finding his loss. He glimpsed at his new racket in his hand for a moment and then DID it. That's the different point with other cases.

So? Nothing important here. Too much speculation which lead to nothing.
