I think it's the most terrible Indonesian squad ever in Sudirman Cup!
But no problem, I hope the GARUDA can make a surprise
INA can make surprise like what KOREA did in Uber Cup 2010...

Taufik, Liliyana Pull Out of Sudirman Cup Squad
Ami Afriatni | May 18, 2011
The Indonesian Badminton Association on Wednesday said it respected Taufik Hidayat’s decision not to play in next week’s Sudirman Cup after the men’s singles shuttler was called up for the national team to boost its ranking in the tournament.
Hadi Nasri, head of the athletes’ development at the association, also known as PBSI, said Taufik’s name was included in the Indonesia roster to get a better seeding in the tournament, which will be held in Qingdao, China on May 22-30.
“We had an agreement that we would name him to the squad for seeding purposes, while we would let him decide whether to play or not,” Hadi told the Jakarta Globe.
“He decided not to play and we respect his decision.”
Taufik said on Tuesday that he withdrew from the Cup because he believed “a younger shuttler was more deserving of his slot.”
“I think this is the right time for the younger generation to have a bigger role in representing our country in major international tournaments,” he said.

With Liliyana Natsir out of the team, the first choice will be Fran Kurniawan Teng/Pia Zebadiah Bernadet and Tantowi Ahmad/Greysia Polii (perhaps?) as the second choice in the Mixed Doubles.
It will be an achievement already if this severely weakened line-up can reach the target of SF. INA will even find it difficult to beat MAS next Wednesday.

Well... Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan is a dark horse. They can pull a surprise against KKK/TBH. INA can still beat MAS with XD, and WD for sure and MD as a surprise win.

It's the first time INA's Sudirman Squad without Taufik,Lilyana,Kido,and Hendra Setiawan
and It's the first time to Hayom,Lindaweny,HendraAG,Anneke,Debby Susanto,Fran Kurniawan,Pia Zebadiah to enter INA'S squad
Good news or Bad news?

Pia is not new for team event. She played in Sea Games as single before. I think she is quite good at team event, better than playing individually. Pia can play women doubles to surprise other team with scratch pairing.
Tontowi, Frans and Debby probably are not tested yet.
Hayom was in Thomas Cup squad but hardly tested. Bona/Ahsan ( especially Ahsan) have experiences in team event.

yeah,and dont forget WS....
wah berat nih kawan. Without Butet, It's going to be really hard to take XD point against Top country such as China, Denmark( i heard their XD is quite good as well)
Without Markis/Hendra ( MD is going to be our weak link against Malaysia, Korea, China, Denmark)
but for Taufik, i think it's a good idea that he pulled out from SC tournament to give more experience to our young player...
Hopefully we get a good draw in QF, so we can fulfill the goal of at least semifinal in this tournament...
On the bright side, our youngster will have more experience for Olympic games, Thomas and Uber Cup, etc...

it would be hard for indonesian team especially without liliyana natsir in there.
their opponents in XD there are vitalij durkin/Nina vislova from rusia and CPS/GLY from malaysia.
without natsir, INA have to make a great game from kurniawan/bernadet. they have to show the best of them to fight with hard opponents from rusia and malaysia.

No Taufik? No problem...
INA's biggest problem is without Lilyana...
Both Taufik and Simon will lost against Lee Chong Wei
and Both Taufik and Simon will win against Russian MS
