KUALA LUMPUR: Chan Peng Soon is supposed to report for duty on the first day of the New Year but the pumped-up mixed doubles shuttler just can’t let any precious minutes go to waste.

The 33-year-old has already started training at the Academy Badminton Malaysia (ABM) in Bukit Kiara with his new partner Valeree Siow under the guidance of new coaching director Rexy Mainaky and coach Teo Kok Siang to prepare for two assignments in India next month.
