I believe I have reported during sidenews that MAS is going to have another one. INA is planning to have one by next year after KOR and MAS SS.. I have been told that Kor and Mas exchanged the dates..so KOR will be first then MAS SS and hopefully INA GP..
In that case, PBSI can just send their team to the MAS SS and INA GP Gold. We typically do not fare well in the Korea SS if it's held in January when it's the coldest. The only times INA won titles in Korea was when the Korea Open was held during April 2004 (end of Winter) and end of August 2006 (summer-time). Luluk/Alvent won the MD title in 2004; while Nova/Butet and Tony/Candra won the MD and XD title in 2006.
It was mentioned here.. ..not in a sidenews thread, but maybe this thread??: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1077109
