PETALING JAYA: Former national coach Kwan Yoke Meng believes Pearly Tan–M. Thinaah and Chen Tang Jie–Toh Ee Wei are primed for a strong SEA Games campaign – and he made sure they left for Thailand with both full stomachs and full spirits.
Before the squad departed, the three shuttlers visited Yoke Meng’s home for a simple meal, a tradition they share whenever their schedules allow.
