    Anyway...I just confirmed what Ants say....I do not know your intention as I did not make TH look bad at all...we ,INA fans, never say bad things about our players....so Ants can make TH look bad?? and it is okay????

    TH has a right not to decline the offer...we cant judge him and tell him what to do....he is a mature player...leave it is to him to make his own decision.....

    Taufik actually don't mind staying with the gang. They are teammates afterall. But he is offered to stay in a hotel. So you can't just say no when everything is already prepared for you.

    Just to clarify that "Ants make TH look Bad" is just a joke hah.. i don't want to create a mess here.

    Another example.. during the WorldChampionship in Kuala Lumpur recently. Taufik even have his own driver to send him places and even to the tournament venue from the Hotel. Well he did took the bus from time to time. About the driver... there is already people arrange it for him. If i were him i would just accept it. If i were to reject.. i might offend the person who have everything arranged for me.

    <Sigh> never mind, the complexities involved in PR.... just diferent in line of thought, I wouldnt confirm or not confirm but that's just me. Maybe you all seldom experience after effects....
    anyway sorry if I have offended you, next time I wouldnt comment about such things.

    Yes, Yes, SEA Games, preparing my next installment of 'adventures of mighty mouse & mighty pillar' for their win in MD(hopefully).
    Our Gan/Lin, hopefully a medal to prove their worthiness in MD senior squad.

    I do hope Lin/Gan can make an impact. Both of them are rather inconsistent. Hope they will take advantage of this SEAGAMES since their other teammates are not around. Show them what you can do guys.

    Yes... I wonder if she receives any "special" treatment during training or matches held in Thailand :) (just kidding). Anyway, I hope she will win few matches :)

    P/S: any photos for the H.R.H Princess?

    Yes, she is the daughter of the Crown Prince, ie grand-daughter of the Thai King.

    She is very supportive of badminton and has even played in Singapore where I have the unique chance of seeing her up close in person and in action on the courts, playing XD.

    I think her crowning glory was during the last SEA Games in Manila where the Thai women's team won gold and she was in that team.

    thanks for the info Loh. you even have a picture with her :D. i think it is beneficial when royalty are interested in sports. more so if they love to play it. My state's Sultan loves field hockey and he was good at it when he was younger. the current Agong loves horse riding and he has even represented Malaysia in competitions. :D

    What? Is she really the grand daughter of the Great Rama 9, Maharaja Bhumibol Aduljadej? She must be very well respected in the team then.

    Remind me of the King himself who also took part in the Sea games before and even got a gold if Im not mistaken.

    Sorry to say, she just lost to Tan WK/Woon KW in Xd first round yesterday :eek: Of course she is being highly protected by the Arm Forces. Beside that, no special "treatment" as an ordinary player..

    she is the short lady partnering with the guy. IMO, she doesn't play that good.
