PETALING JAYA: The long wait over the contract status and salary package of national women’s doubles pair Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah is set to end today, with the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) expected to make an official announcement.
There are indications that the world No. 3 duo could be offered a higher salary package, but any adjustments will only be finalised after the World Championships in Paris this August, provided they deliver strong results at the China Open, Japan Open and the World Championships.
