Badminton Malaysia kian lesu, hilang arah?

Satu pingat gangsa di Sukan Asia mendedahkan kelemahan sistem yang terus mengubah susunan pemain, sedangkan hala tuju lebih besar semakin sukar dilihat.

Badminton Malaysia kian lesu, hilang arah?

Badminton Malaysia faces criticism over its direction following recent performance at Sukan Asia. While Pearly Tan-M Thinaah and Thinaah's duo delivered a commendable performance, the rest of the Malaysian badminton contingent struggled significantly. Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik's pairing, as well as Goh Sze Fei and Nur Izzuddin Rumsani, failed to advance past the round of 16 and quarterfinals respectively.

This, coupled with Malaysia's lack of consistent performance in badminton, raises questions about the state of the sport in the country.
