Khir Johari the sports minister with glasses on the far right, probably Ng Boon Bee sitting third from the left, Tan Aik Huang sitting third from the right...and that is all I can name (i.e. guess).

I Tried to search for Info on the team, but only found that they lost in the Final to INA 9-0.

Where did you get the picture? why did they meet together?

 

[bchaiyow]

Dominique Soong has a badminton academy here in Ottawa. He went back to Malaysia this summer to have a reunion. I volunteered at his academy a few times.

James, Foot Lian , ?, Cheah Hong Chong, Dominic?, Phua Ah Hua, Saw Swee Leong,Moe Chin Keat.

I think unknown could be Kwek Chew Peng.

most are easily recognised as they are in KL except for Dominic and Ah Hua.

they were the 1976 Msian T cup team.

 

[Dreamzz]

is that the restaurant just off jalan imbi?
behind KL plaza and lot 10?

 

[Dreamzz]

are you sure they're all from the same team?
their ages seem to be quite different ...

 

[jamesd20]
