  • Entrevista a Lee Chong
    ENTREVISTA A LEE CHONG WEI Traducció de l’entrevista apareguda a http://www.badminton-information.com/lee-chong- wei.html Lee Chong Wei és un jugador professional de bàdminton, nascut a Malàisia. Va guanyar la medalla de plata a les olimpíades de Pequí 2008, amb la qual cosa es va convertir en el primer malai en aconseguir arribar a una final olímpica a l’individual masculí, acabant amb la sequera de medalles per Malàisia des de les olimpíades de 1996. Com a jugador d’individual, va aconseguir per primer cop ser número 1 al rànquing mundial el 21 d’agost de 2008, posició que ostenta també a l’actualitat. És doncs el tercer jugador masculí malai que aconsegueix aquesta posició (Rashid Sidek i Roslin Hasim ho van aconseguir abans) i és l’únic del seu país que ha mantingut aquesta posició d’honor per més de dues setmanes. Lee és també l’actual campió de l’All England. Tot i haver guanyat diferents títols en importants competicions internacionals, com són varis Super Series, i malgrat el seu estatus entre l’elit mundial, només ha aconseguit la medalla de bronze (al 2005) en campionats del món. 1. A quina edat vas començar a jugar? Als 11 anys. 2. Sempre vas tenir la intenció de fer-te jugador professional? No, en absolut. Vaig començar a jugar de forma totalment natural, ja que el meu pare entrenava i em va animar a mi a fer-ho també. 3. Quan et vas adonar que eres suficientment bo com per donar “guerra” a nivell mundial? Em sembla que tenia 17 anys.

  • History of Badminton
    Facts and Records History of Badminton In 1873, the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party at his country house in the village of Badminton, Gloucestershire. A game of Poona was played on that day and became popular among British society’s elite. The new party sport became known as “the Badminton game”. In 1877, the Bath Badminton Club was formed and developed the first official set of rules. The Badminton Association was formed at a meeting in Southsea on 13th September 1893. It was the first National Association in the world and framed the rules for the Association and for the game. The popularity of the sport increased rapidly with 300 clubs being introduced by the 1920’s. Rising to 9,000 shortly after World War Π. The International Badminton Federation (IBF) was formed in 1934 with nine founding members: England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Denmark, Holland, Canada, New Zealand and France and as a consequence the Badminton Association became the Badminton Association of England. From nine founding members, the IBF, now called the Badminton World Federation (BWF), has over 160 member countries. The future of Badminton looks bright. Badminton was officially granted Olympic status in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Indonesia was the dominant force in that first Olympic tournament, winning two golds, a silver and a bronze; the country’s first Olympic medals in its history. More than 1.1 billion people watched the 1992 Olympic Badminton competition on television. Eight years later, and more than a century after introducing Badminton to the world, Britain claimed their first medal in the Olympics when Simon Archer and Jo Goode achieved Mixed Doubles Bronze in Sydney.

  • Lin Dan Vs Lee Chong Wei: Lin 22 Wins with the Longest Winning Streak Four Times in a Row
    Lin Dan vs Lee Chong Wei: Lin 22 wins with the longest winning streak four times in a row In the early morning of March 12 of Beijing time, 2012 All England Open Badminton Championships had started the men's singles finals of the competition, Once again, the final showdown between Lin and Lee had begun. Lin won the opening game with a close score of 21-19. Unfortunately in the second game with Lin leading 6-2, Lee Chong Wei had to retire. Thus Lin claimed the championship this year without further resistance. This is the fifth All England men's singles title won by Lin Dan. He has also made history winning the most All England men's singles gold medals in the last 36 years. Lin and Lee are undoubtedly the most successful and spectacular players in today’s world badminton men’s singles. The fight between them is also known as the "Lin-Lee Wars”; this is not only the indication of the intensity of their fights; it is also a good description of the smell of the gunpowder produced from their countless encounters. So far, they have met a total of 31 times; Lin Dan has a record of 22 wins and 9 losses against Lee Chong Wei, an obvious advantage on the win-loss ratio. The first meeting was at the Thomas Cup in 2004, when Lin Dan won 2-1. They last played against each other at the 2012 South Korea's Super Series, Lin Dan was overturned by his opponent 1-2.

  • The Effect of Celebrity Endorsement on Brand Attitude and Purchase Intention
    Journal of Global Business and Social Entrepreneurship (GBSE) Vol. 1: no. 4 (2017) page 141–150| gbse.com.my | eISSN 24621714| THE EFFECT OF CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT ON BRAND ATTITUDE AND PURCHASE INTENTION Chin Vi Vien [email protected] Choy Tuck Yun [email protected] Pang Looi Fai [email protected] Sunway University Business School Sunway University, 47500 Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia Abstract This research examines how Celebrity Endorsement affects Brand Attitude and Purchase Intention. In this study, the effect of Endorser Credibility, Endorser Likeability, Brand Image and Brand Credibility on Brand Attitude and Purchase Intention was examined. The respondents were 96 university students in Malaysia. Correlation analyses showed that all four independent variables positively and significantly affected Brand Attitude and Purchase Intention. Further multiple linear regression analyses showed that Brand Credibility was more important than Endorser Credibility in positively affecting Brand Attitude. In addition, both Endorser Credibility and Endorser Likeability were more important than Brand Credibility in positively affecting Purchase Intentions. The findings add to previous research on the importance of Celebrity Endorsement and provides practical guidance in marketing. In particular, the significance of Celebrity Endorsement over Brand Credibility in Purchase Intentions suggests further research. The findings in this research is limited to the purchase behaviour of urban young adults in Malaysia. Keywords: Celebrity Endorsement, Brand Attitude, Purchase Intention. 2017 GBSE Journal 1.0 Introduction In recent years, Malaysian organisations have increased their budget on promotional activities and have invested millions on celebrity advertisement (Freeman & Chen, 2015). Favourite Malaysian celebrities usually endorse more than one brand at any one time.
