MALAYSIA’s supremo Rexy Mainaky did not deny the fact that badminton failed to hit the target in Hangzhou.

The Malaysian contingent had targeted badminton to deliver two silver medals and one bronze at the Asian Games but they will return with only one bronze through former men’s doubles world champions Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik.
