Last night we were invited to attend Samsung Olympic Badminton Final match at Laundry Bar, The Curve as many of us are an hour early to catch a spot for the match. It is one of the most anticipated match by most Malaysians as the final again is Datuk Lee Chong Wei against Li Dan. One of the hope that Malaysia could ever pocket its first Olympic Gold Medal thru this game.

I see Thomas Cup as one of the great matches like EPL but it’s the Asian version where most of the people in Asia, would watch this cup that host every 2 years. The last round that was hosted by Malaysia was 10 years ago and for the year 2010 Malaysia get to host one of the prestigious tournament at Putra Stadium, Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur.

I have Google about this competition and the leading Cup winner is China, Indonesia, Malaysia and some other countries, with current Malaysian team playing at home ground, expectations is high and hoping to lift the trophy again as what Rashid Sidek era which was lifted once by Malaysia during year 1992, but this round they are encountering all time favourites China and Indonesia, that had line up a strong team for this competition.

I was lucky enough to watch get an opportunity to watch it live on this very semi final match that full with ‘kancheongness’ and hopes to prevail to Final and lift the cup.
