PETALING JAYA: Head coach Wong Choong Hann has lured three other Malaysians to join Hong Kong badminton, including Tan Bin Shen.

On Friday, Choong Hann announced his coaching staff, which also included Jeremy Gan and Loh Wei Sheng.

Men's doubles head coach Bin Shen, who handled two-time Olympic Games bronze medal winners Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik and Co, will officially leave the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) after serving the association since 2020.

Bin Shen, whose contract with BAM ends this month, is looking forward to his new job in Hong Kong.

Jeremy will head to Hong Kong after ending his service in Japan. In Japan, he did well to raise the standard of the mixed doubles pair, including Olympic Games bronze medal winners Yuta Watanabe-Arisa Higashino.

Wei Sheng was the BAM's singles assistant coach before he left to Singapore. He will now help with Hong Kong's singles department.

Said Choong Hann:"Both will handle the whole doubles department, with Jeremy focusing more in mixed and Bin Shen on the doubles. Wei Sheng will help out in the singles, we will assist until he is ready to take charge."
