AFTER CHONG WEI, WHERE IS MALAYSIAN BADMINTON HEADING?

It has been a damn long time since I ignored my blog since work is taking up too much of my life.

Anyway, want to talk about badminton, our national team, and if you look at the SEA Games squad, the sad truth is no one is good enough to hold a candle to Lee Chong Wei's reign. I seriously don't know what is going to happen to newly crowned World Junior champion Zulfadli Zulkifli since he is KLRC-bred and those BAM fellas, I hope won't get jealous and say cause you are not in the national set-up, bugger off and train on your own.

Since Zulfadli is a champion, its time BAM discard this attitude of 'if you are with us, we are with you and if you are not with us, then go f... off' cause he is after all a Malaysia and he needs all the help he can get.

You look at out singles players and it looks damn sad. No one after Chong Wei are capable of challenging for honours - Liew Darren, my friend Arif Latif seems to have reached a plateau and the team of coaches has to drastically do some amendments and possibly, an overhaul.

Koo Kien Kiet and Tan Boon Heong, I guess Rexy Mainaky must be laughing since he is possibly having the last laugh after they changed coaches. Why they wanted a change is their choice but results have become worse for them and while they thought they were the man at one time, they forgot, everyone have caught up or overtaken them. It doesn't help we no capable second pair or even second singles like back in the days we had Rashid Sidek and Foo Kok Keong and Razif-Jalani Sidek and Cheah Soon Kit and Soo Beng Kiang.

Oh well, in a way lucky we have KLRC in the mix as BAM now has someone to look over their shoulder
