    wikipedia has him at 176cm
    anyway, that makes him 11cm taller than Markis Kido :)

    (however, wikipedia is hardly synonymous with accuracy...
    ...it's more likely that taufik-ist's figure is right :D)

    LCW is 172-174 cm, when Taufik stand beside LCW, Taufik's taller, so Taufik's 176-177 cm.
    Kido doesnt look short, Zakry looks shorter at 168 cm
    Hafiz is in tall category, BAM website puts him as 188 cm

    And while we're at it :
    Lin Woon Fui = 170 cm
    Gan TC = 169 cm
    Tan BS = 174 cm
    Ong SH = 169 cm
    Fairuz = 172 cm
    CCM = 171 cm
    Kuan BH=173 cm

    Tall ones :
    KKK=177 cm
    TBH = 180 cm
    WCH = 183 cm
    Yeoh KB = 180 cm

    You wanna be glamour, no problem. But ensure the results are delivered as well la. Win the major titles like WC or OG.

    It's not so bad if you're playing doubles. But in singles, if you are short, be prepared to run like hell.
