PBSI created a list of Pelatnas players to take part in health and medical check up and the previous six names (Praveen, Melati, Gloria, etc) don’t seem to be among them. So, it seems that the decision doesn’t change even after the final PBSI council meeting. Tak Ada dalam Daftar PP PBSI, Praveen/Melati Hampir Pasti Dicoret (Not On The List of PBSI Council, Praveen/Melati Almost Definitely Dismissed) Melati already changed her IG bio from ‘National Team member’ to ‘badminton player’. Also, Coach Hendry Saputra left Pelatnas. Hendry Saputra Dipastikan Tak Lagi Jadi Pelatih Tunggal Putra Pelatnas (Hendry Saputra Confirmed to No Longer be the Head Coach of the National Team's Men's Singles) ________________ Sabar Karyaman Gutama/Reza Pahlevi Isfahani left Pelatnas by their own decisions. Apparently, the lack of tournament and they yet to get any personal sponsorship contract are the reason. PBSI didn’t participated in India tournaments recently also made them to consider to leave even more. And there is a boss of a club offered them a sponsorship. Herry IP asked them to stay for at least a year more and reconsider their decision but in the end, they still wanted to leave. Hope that it’d be the best for them.

Greysia just said that she'll still in the Pelatnas this year. Previously in November 2021, she said that she'll retire in 2022. She said that she'll tell us the reason(s) one day. But she mentioned that it's not (only) for her own interests.
For a country like Indonesia, it seems difficult to get two men's singles player to be consistent in tournament results.
Indeed. Consistency is a major homework for many national players for years. Also, they did great with the rise of Jojo and ASG after a long time of MS drought but they seem to get stuck again. I recalled that I saw some people said that CHN MS ‘stuck’ which I don’t agree. Compared to INA, their regeneration is better. Pandemic makes the regeneration process even worse. No words yet. But it could go either way. They’re a successful pairing and current INA best, there’s always possibility of them still together unless if PBSI will make Greysia guides her juniors by pairing her up with a new player for her last active year. Plus, INA WD2 isn’t in a good condition now since Ribka is still recovering from her ACL injury from the Bali leg. Without GreyAp, things will be hard for a while. ______________________ PBSI didn’t extend WD assistant coach Chafidz Yusuf’s contract. He has a role in pairing up Marcus/Kevin, Fajar/Rian, Siti/Ribka, helped Greysia/Apriyani to get the OG, etc and seemingly well-liked. Several players are sad and posted their respect and tribute for him. He bids farewell on his social media account and mentions that he was surprised and assured that it wasn’t his decision. In interview, he also said that he was told by PBSI council that he “couldn’t contribute enough” but he wouldn’t reveal the main reason why they didn’t extend his contract (that PBSI told him). Mengejutkan, Chafidz Yusuf Terdepak dari Pelatnas PP PBSI (Shocking, Chafidz Yusuf Dismissed From Pelatnas PP PBSI) ______________________ I almost forget about this. Because of INA’s cooperation, WADA’s sanction will end (start in February 2022).

Twitter thread of PBSI’s list of Pelatnas players of 2022. Singles: MD and WD: XD: So, it’s finally official that PraMel and Hafiz-Gloria are out (back to Djarum, Gloria is now paired with Dejan). Apriyani will play with Greysia and also a different partner for preparation of Greysia’s eventual retirement. _________________ Twitter thread of PBSI’s list of Pelatnas coaches of 2022. They yet to find the replacements for Chafidz Yusuf and Hendry Saputra. Coach Ricky Susiono AKA Ricky Pehong (who posts Pelatnas YouTube videos on his channel) also stepped down. _________________ The reasons why PraMel and HafGlo were demoted, stated by Coach Nova Widianto: 1. Achievement of the last 2 years. 2. Age factor. 3. Their period of time in Pelatnas. 4. Character.
INA squad for BATC 2022. Youngsters, juniors and besides Gregoria, not the usual main players. Like India, personally I think that it’s a good move. _________________ INA squad for German Open Super 300. Singles: Doubles: Apri/Fadia, Febby/Ribka will play. Both Febby and Ribka are both recovering from injuries, so they definitely aren’t burdened with target. Dejan/Gloria, Akbar/Gischa and Pra/Mel are participating. _________________ INA squad for AE 2022. Singles: Doubles:
Whatever the result, this is the right decision to field the younger squad. As defending champion, Indonesia already qualified anyway
It's time for Chico, Ikhsan and other back-up players should take part many tournaments as possible to upgrade their ranking and gain competing experience for regeneration. Saw their names in SUI Open and Orleans Masters and perhaps KOR Masters. Unlike MD discipline, need longer time to nurture singles players which is more competitive category.
The first task of Indonesia's new junior mixed doubles coach, Flandy Limpele, ended with sweet results after leading Amri/Winny to win the Lithuanian International 2022. Well done coach Flandy
After Momota, now it is VA's turn to stay ranked 1st and continue to be on top in the future while Ginting and JC are in the losing end repeatedly.
Are there any news about Rhustavitos injury? Type of injury, severity, expected length of injury timeout?
Did Indonesia Air sponsor for Indonesia players ??? like ANA for Japan and Eva Air for Tai Tzu Ying. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> In Vietnam, we have many talents who can win a small tournament in international tours, but the winning prize cannot cover accommodation cost. That is the problem for Vietnamese who wants to take part in international tours. Nguyễn Thùy Linh and Nguyễn Hải Đăng just won some small tour in Europe but it's funny that they have to use their own money for that trip.
Indonesia , being a powerhouse , not one but many sponsors would be ready to fund the players . For Vietnam, I think Vu thi thrang, in my opinion , she is definitely a top 25 player according to her standard. Unfortunate, they dont have sponsors.
