Malaysia to have Badminton League in 2014

Goh Soon Huat claims 4th Singles Spot in Malaysia's 2014 Thomas Cup Team on merit.

Once in a blue moon Malaysia practises

meritocracy in its policies,only perhaps

for a trivial event like badminton, but never

for strategic events.

A very rare occasion in Malaysia when decisions are based objectively and

rationally,instead of the normal deluge of biased and balls-carrying

innuendo.Goh is a BAM player,Ramdan is not in the BAM, the reason why

players leave the BAM is because the BAM has no money to invest in

players playing in tournaments like in other countries, as public funds are

diverted to line the pockets of the hangers-on supporting the ruling

government.Goh also won on form and merit, and if he had been left out,

it just reflects how idiotic the BAM can be by not supporting their own

player who has won his place on merit.It could have been a double

tragedy.

Lee Chong Wei makes known his "choice"for Thomas Cup

http://www.themalaymailonline.com/sports/article/chong-wei-ramdan-misbun-best-choice-to-fill-vacant-single-slot

Why not ask Lee Chong Wei to be the chief coach.
If his godfather cum benefactor's son is the best choice, why bother
at all to conduct trials to select the in-form player?
Just ask Lee Chong Wei to make the selection.

Misbun turns down BAM offer

Thankfully so otherwise the BAM will be run by
another semi-literate hard head like those currently
running the country with for example suspicious degrees.
