PETALING JAYA: Former world No. 1 Koo Kien Keat believes the move to split up men’s doubles pair Goh V Shem-Tan Wee Kiong could be a good thing.

The Olympic silver medallists were split up by the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) last month following a string of uninspiring performances this year.
