But really, attention to Mixed Doubles in general in Malaysia is still poor compared to Indonesia, China and other great XD nations.

but Lee Chong Wei gets the attention the most and then don't see him end up like Hafiz and Koo and Tan...

Cos LCW didnt win major title until later. Those 3 won AE at young age, early in their career
CPS/GLY are something like that too, slowly improve, from GP Gold, then SS, then....

typical Msian mentality.....you need to convince them by winning majors....
eg. before OG, no one really care about Pandelela....not interested about diving..
after OG, everyone going gaga over diving sport...

For years LCW was dubbed Jaguh Kampung. Then they were saying he will never win a major, blah blah.
Pandelela, I thought she already famous ever since 2010 AG silver and CWG gold(to achieve diving gold in CWG is harder than our badminton one). Diving become higher profile since that China coach came back & raise the standards

Don't think it has to do with mentality....
Perhaps we can call it "idol/champ effect". Same thing happen when Susy & Alan won OG gold. Kids start playing baddie. Watching Ricky/Rexy smashed non-stop *whoa, very cool la*, winning tons of title including OG... Every INA kids wanna play MD. Lately, INA weightlifters keep winning medals in OG, parents start sending their kids to gym...
And in MAS case, Pandelela won bronze, people wanna know more about diving.
It's a good thing... Especially if kids finally find a sportsman as an idol or role model.

anyone know what happen ? what kind of unfair treatment?

**undeadshot** · 10-04-2012, 08:31 AM

Not sure what happened, but Chan PS and Goh LY seemed really pissed on FB thanks to BAM. No wonder so many athletes fed up with BAM!

Sponsorships, sponsorships and sponsorships.. It's all about the $$$$$$$

**limsy** · 10-11-2012, 06:05 AM

the current world number 5
lost to chooi(21)/lee(18) in pahang open
8-21,21-13,25-23

**undeadshot** · 10-11-2012, 06:27 AM

They don't really prepare or have any game plan going into local circuit. They lost to Lee Chong Wei/Vivian Hoo as well but I doubt that Lee Chong Wei/Vivian Hoo is top 20 world standard.
