One of the example that if his own kind makes insults..he wont say it...he jumps in it..he even insulted some of BC;s mother( very vulgarly)..I think he forgot..he did not get banned at all...hm..may be 2 or 3 days only..
wait...so are you suggesting that of all the prestigious titles LD has won, its because of his freebys from his countrymen? and that he has demonstrated no skills whatsoever beating out players from other countries such as PG TH LCW etc?...i dont know the stats but im pretty sure LD owns a 75% plus winning rate over all of those players you have mentioned.
i dont think im been mislead to anything

Amid jeers of "match-fixing" from the crowd, All England champion Chen Jin beat compatriot and top-ranked Lin Dan in the Asian Championships semi-finals to ensure China of three men's singles places at the Beijing Olympics.
One month after China's head coach Li Yongbo admitted to match-fixing at the 2004 Athens Olympics, Chen beat Lin 21-13, 21-15 to make sure of his place in the top four of the world rankings.
Each country is allowed only two players in the Olympic draw. However, an exception is made if a country has three players inside the world's top four.
Chen's victory means he cannot drop lower than his current fourth ranking come Olympic qualification deadline on April 30, joining Lin and world number three Bao Chunlai in the Beijing Games draw.
Last month, Li proudly admitted that the 2004 Athens Olympic women's semi-final between Zhang Ning and Zhou Mi was fixed to allow Zhang to reach the final, which she eventually won.
Saturday's clash between Chen and Lin had all the hallmarks of a similar arrangement, though Chen did not see it that way.
"I think Lin played his normal game and I played my normal game," he told reporters. "I've very happy to confirm my place in the Olympics but now I have to start from the beginning again."
In his admission last month, Li said: "It shows our patriotism and in fact I'm proud of it."
When pressed about Li's comments, Chen said: "I don't know about that, I'm just happy to get into the Olympics."
Lin's decision to compete in the Asian Championships, the final regional Olympic qualifier, raised eyebrows because his place in the Beijing Games was already assured.
There was speculation in the Chinese media that Lin's presence in the tournament was only to ease Chen's path to the Olympics.
Indeed, Lin appeared to have no interest in the match and did not make a single smash in anger. The knowledgeable Malaysian crowd jeered every time Lin failed to attack a potential smash or lazily missed easy shots.
Lin was unavailable for comment after the match.
Chen's victory means Dane Kenneth Jonassen, the world number five, cannot break into the top four, even though he won the European Championship men's singles title in Herning, Denmark.
Jonassen, however, said Chen still deserves to be in the Olympics despite having an easy passage.
He said: "They put the nation first and I expected that to happen. It is something we never do in Denmark but Chen deserves to be in the Olympics, even if he had an easy draw."
fyi, i practically have read almost all posts in bf. This is old and well known news. Did i say lyb don't play badminton to his advantage? did i say lyb haven't admitted fixing? u should debate on specific point, not some same old same old rhetoric which i have already gave my explanation before. All i hear is same old whining. When chinese players are group together in a draw, suspicion of fixing abound. When chinese players are spread out evenly in a draw, weaker countries whines about having to face chinese player(s) so early in a draw and why they can't advance or gain QF or better experience. The fear of china domination at the 2010 AE, never happen.
im TH fans...i ve seen the match again (TH vs PG), and im sure that is bad call...but both payers know that there is code of conduct, eventhough TH look s very angry...We not screaming cos we know that overall the result is fair enough...both players give us a classic match...as a badminton lovers what else can be expected, that match is fantastic....linesman is a human too....
winning is important but not everything, enjoy the game is a must for badminton lover, except a fanboy will scream everywhere
i repeat for u again(for the 3rd time), read my profile under occupation.
ya, he should apologizes for each of his kick butt win over lcw and taufik too lol
if ld can't beat his team mate, how can he beat taufik or lcw on the next match? u know a better way?
That's great to see.
I think this mentality is need to gear up for the team events like Thomas Cup and Uber Cup. Winner takes all.
Then blame the dirty host country allowing him to play.

maybe i didn't meet as many as u have. I have met, chat and lunch with ardy wiranata, tony G, Halim Heryanto. Sparred with ardy too since he is here full time. Also played in indonesian culture/badminton club for ~ 15 years. Help them raised money in many fund raisers. U r in a coma if u think all INA badminton fans are crazy for taufik like u fanboy. So how many chinese pro players have u met and had lunch with?
