I saw the crowd picture in Kalimantan Open's final (in the www.pbdjarum.org ) . The building was packed! I suppose badminton popularity is still thriving strongly....
The ticket price for the first 2012 sirnas was Rp 5000 at the beginning but because of the high turnout, maybe it was Rp 10 000 for the final day.
That's the name written in TS I suppose it's to differentiate between the different branches of Jaya Raya, ie Pusdiklat Jaya Raya is the elite centralized training camp for Jaya Raya?
Here are some video links of good matches during Kalimantan Open 2012: http://www.youtube.com/v/F3IxYqQ0oR0?fs=1 Thalia-Yefi [PB. Djarum] vs. Jauza-Farah [PB. Pelita Bakrie] in U-15 GD... http://www.youtube.com/v/IkGWGXhTNtc?fs=1 Fitriani [PB. Exist] vs. Devi [PB. Djarum] in U-17
Surya has joined to PB. Mutiara now, http://www.pbdjarum.org/news/view/2092/calvin-bertemu-surya-di-final
Surya is talented.... but he commited multiple ethical offences when he was in Kudus... So, he was expelled as a message to everyone else.
yes i have read this in the morning.... wow, he did ethical offences when he was quite young ??? to his coaches ??? oh my god.... i hope he learn a lot from this. many said that he is quite good, with mature play and unique skill for his age. anyway, Mutiara is a good club also. with many good youngsters... but i still think that Djarum is better for his development.... hi Surya Purnamasidi, please improve both in your technical skill and mental skill... behave better
From what I heard... Surya stole, then was busted... Got disciplined and reprimanded... [but not yet expelled]. Then, a few months later, he stole again from many of his fellow athletes [money, handphones, blabla]. Then, he was expelled.
oh my god, quite shock !!!!!! is he a cleptomania ?? i think he need a psikiatry ! and what ?? busted ?? can not imagine that !!1
I also heard that the coaching staff at Mutiara found out that Surya stole money from people around him in Bandung. He is in probation now. I predict that given his nature, Mutiara will fire him in a couple of months.
i think he has to get back to Balikpapan soon or his parents has to live with him in Bandung. He can not live alone. he has a mental disorder problem... Krisna, does he enter Mutiara through an audition or Mutiara did a scouting job for him ?
We have arrived at Djarum Sirnas Sumatera Selatan Open 2012! Yey! here's the TS link http://tournamentsoftware.com/sport/draws.aspx?id=246E5A05-AA41-4473-A26D-1ADFF8C692AE
