  • MAHATHIR WINS VIET OPEN PRELIMINARY ROUND (Bernama
    19 NOV 1997 VN-Badminton MAHATHIR WINS VIET OPEN PRELIMINARY ROUND HANOI, Nov 18 (Bernama) -- The Vietnam Open 97 badminton tournament began today with trepidation among members of the comparatively small Malaysian team but with Mahathir Mustaffa easily winning his preliminary round. Mahathir, the sole men's singles player in the team, began ticking after a lethargic start to beat unknown Thai Sirachai Panpatchara 15-10, 5-4 at the Hanoi Indoor Stadium here. The other singles player registered for the Vietnam Open 97 -- the last leg of the badminton circuit before the World Grand Prix championships in Jakarta next month -- was Jason Wong but he had opted out because of injury. Mahathir faces a relatively experienced British player Mark Constable later in the evening which would also see the mixed doubles encounter between Tan Kim Her-Norashikin Amin and Denmark's Larsen Jesper-Ann Jorgensen. Recuperating from injury would also be in the minds of national pair Cheah Soon Kit and Yap Kim Hock as this will only be the second international outing by the two together since the Thai Open. Before last week's Thai Open Kim Hock was absent from the badminton scene since May due to injuries. Kim Hock had stated that he would try his best but could not be playing 100 per cent due to the long absence. The seeded pair, now slated as world no 13, will only get to play tomorrow meeting the winners of the match between Vietnam's Le Dai Thang-Tran Duc Sang and Singapore's Patrick Lau-Zhao Jianhua.

  • BEREGU MALAYSIA TERUSKAN CABARAN (Bernama 20/11/1997)
    20 NOV 1997 Vietnam-Badminton BEREGU MALAYSIA TERUSKAN CABARAN Oleh: Mohd Ghazemy Mahmud HANOI, 20 Nov (Bernama) -- Pasangan beregu terkemuka Malaysia, Cheah Soon Kit dan Yap Kim Hock, hari ini menewaskan beregu Singapura, Patrick Lau dan Zhao Jianhua, pada perlawanan pertama mereka dalam Kejohanan Badminton Terbuka Vietnam di sini. Pasangan Singapura itu tewas 15-10, 15-8 selepas permulaan yang rancak pada set pertama di Stadium Tertutup Hanoi. Kejohanan lima hari itu ialah pertandingan antarabangsa kedua bagi Kim Hock selepas menyertai Terbuka Thai yang menyaksikan mereka ketinggalan di tempat yang ke bawah. Sebelum Kejohanan Thai, Kim Hock tidak menyertai sebarang kejohanan badminton berikutan kecederaan dan pembedahan surgikal di bahunya. Beregu pilihan, Soon Kit-Kim Hock, satu-satunya beregu yang diharapkan dapat meneruskan kemaraan negara, berkata mereka akan bertemu pasangan Denmark, Larsen Jesper-Martin Kundgaard Hansen atau beregu China, Luo Yigang-Chen Gang esok. Perlawanan-perlawanan awal hari ini menyaksikan Mahathir Mustaffa terkeluar daripada cabaran Malaysia setelah ditewaskan pemain pilihan Denmark, Kenneth Jonassen 15-1, 17-18, 15-5. Semalam, Mahathir mengalahkan pemain Thai, Sirachai Panpatchara 15-10, 15-4 dan pemain England, Mark Constable 15-4, 18-16 untuk layak ke perlawanan hari ini. Tiga pemain lain, yang dibawa Persatuan Badminton Malaysia -- pasangan beregu campuran Tan Kim Her-Norashikin Amin dan perseorangan wanita Woon Sze Mei -- juga tewas pada perlawanan awal mereka. Kejohanan di Hanoi itu, yang bermula semalam walaupun menghadapi masalah, ialah pusingan akhir sirkit badminton sebelum Kejohanan Badminton Grand Prix Dunia di Jakarta, bulan depan. Soon Kit-Kim Hock perlu memenangi kejohanan ini, dengan menewaskan pasangan Korea Selatan Lee Dong Soo-Yoo Yong Sung dan pasangan Indonesia Ricky Subagja-Rexy Mainaky, untuk menempah tempat ke Jakarta.

  • Ewe Hock and Hock Hin Selected for National Squad
    28 FEB 1997 Badminton-Selection EWE HOCK AND HOCK HIN SELECTED FOR NATIONAL SQUAD KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 28 (Bernama) -- Nusa Mahsuri discards Ong Ewe Hock and Yong Hock Kin are among six single players selected for the national squad although no formal decision has been made by the two professional shuttlers. The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) invited both players to join the national stable after trials were held last week to name the new national team, BAM President Datuk Dr Abdullah Fadzil Che Wan said today. No time frame was given to the two shuttlers to make up their minds, he said after chairing a BAM executive committee meeting. It was reported that both the players are in the midst of looking for sponsors after failing to get their contract with private company Nusa Mahsuri renewed last December. Besides Ewe Hock and Hock Kin, BAM also named Wong Choong Hann, Wong Ewe Mum, Lo Ah Heng and P. Kantharoopan as the singles players for the national squad. The doubles players named are Cheah Soon Kit/Yap Kim Hock, Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wai, Chew Choon Eng/Rosman Razak, Yap Yee Hup/Yap Yee Guan and Tan Kim Her/Lee Chee Leong. Dr Abdullah said the BAM has disbanded the national under-20 squad and instead divided the back-up squad into two divisions. In Division A. the single players are Jason Wong, Ramesh Nathan, Foo Yoon Keang, Ng Kean Kok and Mahathir Mustaffa. The doubles players in that division are Cheah Soon Thoe/Chang Kim Wai, Pang Cheh Chang/Khoo Boo Hock and Lim Theam Teow/Khoo Kok Keng.

  • Bam to Launch Club Championship
    23 JAN 1996 Badminton-Abdullah BAM TO LAUNCH CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 23 (Bernama) -- Malaysian badminton is set to enter a new era with the launching of a club championship soon that is open to local and foreign players. Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) President Datuk Dr Abdullah Fadzil Che Wan said today the championship was open to private clubs, companies and other organisations. "We want to create more competition for local players who are not in the national team. This way, we will keep those not selected to remain competitive," he said after a BAM exco meeting here. The meet is also open to professional clubs like Nusa Mahsuri and Wira Tangkis and they are allowed to rope in national or any foreign players. Abdullah also announced the new national team which saw the exclusion of P. Kantharoopan, Davincy Saha, Wong Ewee Mun and Koo Yong Chut. Roslin Hashim, the only BAM player in the recent SEA Games squad, retained his position along with Ismail Saman and All-England semifinalist Lo Ah Heng. SEA Games gold medallists Cheah Soon Kit and Yap Kim Hock remain as the top pair, backed up by Yap twins Yee Hup and Yee Guan, Chung Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah and Rosman Razak/Chew Chun Eng. Abdullah said although the team was trimmed down, the players' rankings would be reviewed from time to time based on their performances in international tournaments and national trials. "We might not hold the trial every four months as it is now. We want them to do well in international meets...some players only prepare for the trials...we want to keep them on their toes," he said.
