Ruben is my coach. He's a great guy and he (with Michelle Li) has beaten most of the top players in Canada in a recent tournament. He's in Hong Kong right now so I can't train with him for the next month
He also trained under Rexy with the Malaysian team as well

I honestly don't know, I know he's very homesick though and has been living abroad for a very long time. As far as I know, I think he intends on returning to Canada

never seen Michelle Li play but she is probably pretty good. But when she goes out to compete internationally, she probably won't look as good as them. Ruben used to play internationally though.
Off topic-Here's a brief video of Ms. Li competing..

That is not her brother, they just happen to have the same last name. I'm assuming your talking bout Kevin Li.
Off topic-One more video of Ms. Li..
..this was recorded a few yrs back, when she was playing WS for the U16 competition:
