No misbun, no problem. Our ah teh siu bock is there for LCW,no need notes or lots of ink writing.. guiding LCW at the AE all the way to the final to defeat LIN DAN in 2 sets yesterday! btw, noticed Ah teh was speaking Hokkien with LCW yesterday
Sometimes its good to have a change in the minds that have guided you for so long. There could be something where they are not able to see and only can be seen by new bloods. Ah Bok is the new blood here and hope he can provide the missing link that LCW were looking for whenever he is up against LD. It does not show or say MS is no good but after so many years taking charge, he has permanently developed his own system or methods which can be read by the opponents. I guess this is just human nature and the Chinese capitalized on this. Besides, credit should go to LCW himself because he did not give up after so many years of disappointment in the majors. Instead he continued to work hard and stubbornly, persistently tailing and zigzagging LD until today which is about time to rip the seeds he sow. Knowing LCW is the type who doesn't rest on his laurel, I personally think LD's path from now on would be rough. Very tough indeed.
Impossible. He can easily get a new job with handsome pay since he is so good as badminton coach (according to ppl, but not including me). Btw, Nusa Mahsuri still exist and operating? If yes, he can go back there and for sure he can do whatever he wants, and trained his players using his very own style and technique. I am sure he will be more happy than stay in BAM.
Lin Dan is both a Fujianese and Hakka. His Hakka name is Lim Dan with the Lim sounding like the Min Nan dialect (Hokkien). The same with Chen Hong. Fujianese Hakkas, unlike Hakkas from Guangdong, live in fortress-like complexes called Tu Lou, which at one time the Americans mistook for missiles bases.
Fujian's terrain is hilly which allows it to maintain the many Han Chinese sub-groups' various dialects in addition to the common language (Ordinary man's common language sometimes wrongly referred to as Mandarin). There are about 3 main groups of dialects in Fujian plus some smaller groups, with Hakka being one of the latter. The 3 major groups are the Fuzhou people or Eastern Min dialect, the Min Nan people/dialect one of which is sometimes referred to as "Hokkien", and the Putian dialect. All the 3 Min Nan sub-groups can be found in SE ASia, mainly in Malaysia, Taiwan, Singapore.
If your surname name is Tan, or Lim (Lin), or Ng then you are almost definitely a Fujianese. These 3 surnames form the biggest names in Fujian, from very good pedigree.
Surname Lim ,Tan or Ng can also be Chuchow or Teochew or Hainanese.. Ng can also be Cantonese.Hakka Lin is also pronounced as Lim. Chuchow dialect is closer to Min Nan than Fuzhou, which sounds more like Japanese. Lim, Tan or Ng is likely to be Lin,Chen,or Wang . People who have relatives in Fujian say that the classification is more like 18 sub-groups. Lin Dan happens to be from a Hakka village in Fujian. Many others in BC can confirm or correct these. Would be very surprised if China youngsters can speak or understand dialects, the majority of youngsters in Msia can only use Huayu. A lot of immigrants from Fujian to Msia speak dialects especially if they are from rural areas but they are totally incomprehensible. Never knew Chen Hong was Hakka, always assumed he was Fuzhou like Tang Xian Hu.
and our AE champ said he still needs MS (heard it over the radio news just now)... what can I say guys, no good byes yet, no jobless MS yet but instead the pressure is indeed on BAM to get MS back... and the saga resumes
but it's the truth declaration said all over again and TSB knew better than to be offended by that simple statement (I hope, since I know you are a good coach TSB, and a good man ^^)... and I believe those three respect each other for they have been together for long ...
He dont have to have a job to make a living already........i heard that he is sponsored by yonex....a lifetime sponsor it is
