    Is look like SS final and MO'08 very close to each other if it's held in Malaysia.

    I saw articcle this morning.

    Taken from SOUTH MORNING CHINA POST ( Nov 30, 2007) reported by Chan Kin Wa

    Super Series finale unlikely to happen

    The Final Super Series tournament appears even less likely to take place after China said yesterday they would not take part.

    The tournament was thrown into disarray when the original host,Qatar,announced this month it would be unable to do so and the alternative, Kuala Lumpur, was also ruled out.

    It is believed China will gather for a month-long camp in Zhuhai after The Hong Kong Open,which means all their top players would not be available for the tournament,scheduled for December 18-23.

    There are some possibilities here:

    1)The SS Final less likely to take place after LYB stated that China Team would not take part (less attractive then it should be).
    2) LYB had known that there would be no SS Final and then he made such statement (that China Team would not participate).

    After all, it is BWF the one who should be blamed, cos they fail to organize the tournament properly :eek:.

    ..well, i guess next time when we see BWF puts up a *To be determined or *To be announced caption, it means that the event could be cancelled... :p

    Is it because the SS is not being held in China? :rolleyes:
