Rallying for a better future


Hard thing to do: Wong Choong Hann (left) says restructuring the coaching set-up is tough and letting Chin Eei Hui, Wong Pei Tty and Rosman Razak go is one of the biggest moves he has made.

After two years of hard work in strengthening the coaching and training departments, the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) coaching director Wong Choong Hann hopes for good results. Will 2021, his third year as the supremo, be the year of reckoning for Malaysian badminton?

Q: Choong Hann, how would you sum up 2020?A: It has been a roller-coaster ride. We did okay at the start of the year. Lee Zii Jia upstaged a few big names and reached the All-England semi-finals.
