    We always talk about the able bodied badminton players, forgot about the less able bodied.;) Since this is 1st Para AG & badminton is being played, good to feature it. Held in Guangzhou also.
    Official Website : http://www.gzapg2010.cn/en/


    Malaysia's representative : "The other gold medals should come from badminton (Cheah Liek Hou-Suhaili Laiman)...http://thestar.com.my/services/printerfriendly.asp?file=/2010/12/7/sports/7569022.asp&sec=sports
    Cheah Liek Hou is a left hander, 22 years old, right arm had some defect. Cheah also participates with a able bodied partner in Msia local tournaments in National GP, SUKMA in MD(won bronze with Goh Wei Shem). He won the MD title in 2010 Msia Para Games. No idea about his partner's background.

    I couldnt find any list of participants in official website, so please list out the badminton participants if you have the info.

    Btw, STL1, STL2, STL3 means Standing below waist. 1,2,3 is the level of impairement in their legs as explained in the para bwf site.

    Wheelchair 1,2 also is according to level of disability

    Oops I forgot to post 2 more results :
    MS category STL3:
    Gold= Yu Kwong Wah (HK, wow), Silver = Hary Susanto(INA), Bronze=Omar Bakri(Msia)

    WS Category BMW2 (Wheelchair) :
    Gold=Amnouy Wwewithan(Thailand), Silver = Lee Sunae(Korea), Bronze=Sujirat Pookkham(Thailand)

    Cheah Liek Hou made it to the finals for both his events, MS(STU5) & MD(STU4/5).

    Msia Hairulfozi Saaba/Mohd Zambri Yusof just won the bronze in MD BMSTL3 category, beating the Thailand pair 21-9, 21-12.
    The finals will be tommorow.

    Another thing I noticed about Para AG is the players are mostly 30+ and 40+, including the gold medalist.
    Cheah LH's MD partner is 48 y.o.

    Hehe, Cheah Like Hou delivered. Congratulations to him. He can play MD normally fairly well in the National GP Finals if I remember correctly.

    He won 2009 Pahang Open with Chow Pak Chuu, but Division 2 lah. This Year won SUKMA bronze with Goh Wei Shem. Play with able bodied opponents he can hold his own, just no diving like LCW to save shuttles, cannot balance.

    Last month's AG had livescore, but only for selected sports, less popular ones. They had for beach volleyball and a few others. Para AG, well, less sports, can put for all I suppose.

    Cheah/Suhaili Laiman won 1st set 21-8. I more concerned abt Cheah's partner, 48 y.o. uncle already.

    Not to mention both are disabled. :) Both CLH prove that disablility also not a real barrier to compete against non-disabled one, won Pahang Open. :) Hope I can see him in international tournaments.

    Actually I didnt know Cheah has a defect on his right arm until another BCer mentioned it. His non playing arm looks perfectly normal at 1st glance, but he cant lift it high like we can. That's also why I think he cannot do dives as he cannot balance himself with right arm, cannot recover fast enough for next shot.

    Cheah LH/S Laiman won the MD STU 4/5 GOLD, 21-8 21-7. Congrats!
    Silver to INA, Bronze to China

    Wow, that was a thrashing. Congratulations to all MAS gold medallists (3 events, right?) and of course to Cheah Liek Hou for winning 2 golds. ;)

    Cheah(left) & Suhaili are the ones holding up the no 9, they won the 9th gold for Msia at Para AG. The Msia WS who also won gold I think is the one in badge tudung, 3rd from right,she's 35 according to the profile
    (click enlarge on sin chew site if you want a bigger view).

    Together with them are all the medalist from other sports
    Congrats, hopefully our Paralimpic players will get more recognition in future.;)
