KUALA LUMPUR: National badminton legend Datuk Rashid Sidek has expressed his dismay over the involvement of former men’s singles shuttler Liew Daren and former National Sports Institute (NSI) analyst Jerry Gan in betting activities.

Rashid, who knows the duo, said it never crossed his mind that they would be involved in such an activity which has tarnished Malaysia’s image in the world of badminton.
