I would like to know more about the simulation matches. Who will be pitted against who? Although this sounds impossible, I hope for Astro Arena to at least broadcast it instead of showing repeats of finals all the time.
agree.. im already bored with the ajc finals over and over again i dont think astro arena will broadcast this simulation match because other team maybe will have spies
They invite all public to go watch. It's at Stadium Juara, not Putra. Some glitch, BAM slow to book the Stadium Putra.
It will be held at Stadium Juara . eaglehelang has made correction to the news article. It will be held at Stadium Juara, not Putra. Go back to look at Jang Soo-Young's photos, and you will feel better from your headache. .
George... u cured? U dono where meh? phui...dun bluf lah... lol. BAM should plan this for players funds. Proper planning is important. This is their 'admin' job. Who's the finance director?
look like bolehers and BAM are not in synch ______________________________________ Badminton: BAM needs to buck up 2010/04/26 WILLIAM DENNIS, Subang Jaya letters@nst.com.my I REFER to "BAM told to buck up for Thomas Cup" (NST, April 21). National badminton players training for the upcoming Thomas Cup tournament. Fans are having difficulty purchasing tickets to the games. so they show them their support. I am not surprised that Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek was quoted as saying that he had expected the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM), as the organiser, to aggressively promote the prestigious sporting event. I called up BAM office at 9.45am on Thursday to check where I could buy tickets for the Thomas Cup finals. The staff who took the call told me to buy online at www.ticketpro.com. My second question as to whether season tickets were available only drew a blank. "I don't know" was the response. There was no reply when I asked the person how he could not have known, seeing that he was working with BAM. I went to the website but could not see anything about the Thomas Cup tickets. While still on the website, I called BAM again from another line and told him that I couldn't see anything about purchasing the tickets. He said there was but I stood my ground, only to draw a rude reply from him: "I cannot help you." It is less than three weeks to go before the Thomas Cup matches start but local badminton fans are still unsure as to where they can get the tickets. BAM should have aggressively promoted the event and started selling the tickets a few months ago, as badminton has a strong following in Malaysia. As an ardent follower of Malaysian badminton, I feel that it is time for the BAM management to sort out its internal problems or gracefully step down to make way for new blood to lead the association and take Malaysian badminton to new heights. Some people have been there too long, which probably has been the reason for complacency. When the national team does well in international tournaments, they would be the first to want to take photographs with the team. To BAM, I say keep your staff informed of developments and educate them to deal with the public politely and professionally.
BCers are well informed of where to get tickets . We got to inform the writer to join BC. BCers are well informed of where to get tickets.

Contradictions. The star reports the Lee Chong Wei will take on Tan Chun Seang while WCH and Hafiz will take on CKB and Liew Darren? while NST reports that LCW will go up against Liew Darren!?
Are you going to watch them? And do you have any info whether it will be broadcasted or not? I'm keeping my fingers crossed. (Not to mention I hope Mak/Tan defeats Fuzzy...damn I'm cruel )
Haha...yr "cruel" thots came true. Mak/Tan defeated Fuzzies in 3 games for the MAS-B team's only win . Overall MAS A team win 4-1. LCW def Liew Darren 2-0 KKK/TBH def HTH/OSH 2-0 WCH def TCS 2-0 Fuzzies lost Mak/Tan 1-2 HH def CKB 2-0
Wonder if the Fuzzies would now be replaced by Mak/Tan for the TC . Wonder if the Fuzzies would now be replaced by Mak/Tan for the TC. .
