This will be a valuable experience for Ririn/Amelia, Ririn still 17 and Melati still 16. Hope Djarum will start to groom them by sending them to small tourney.
And they beat Mizuki/Reika in AE 2010 with 21-2 21-9. At least, Melati/Ririn get better score than them.
You do not have to attend every single Super Series event, only something like 7/12 (might be outdated already) which you need anyway if you want some sort of decent ranking. Only top 10 players have to attend more but that's no different from tennis ... You can still qualify for the Olympics ranked outside of the top 10 but not if your head coach is adamant on getting 3 players to the Olympics requiring all three to be in the top 4 which was looking very unlikely. Therefore Chen Jin needs to be given all the points he can (notwithstanding he still has to beat everyone else) I don't think it's exactly a secret his target is London 2012 either
