The Dutch, Indonesia's former colonial master in the past taught us: Bad management of institutions... Proof: the Dutch East Indies Company [VOC] even went bankrupt due to terrible management... Messy administration... Proof: when the Dutch East Indies Company was dissolved, they have unread documents that could take 15 years to go through... A culture of plundering everything that's good... Lack of enlightenment that an institution need to seriously add-value to continue to exist well... Mastery of devide and conquer tactics... We are seeing all the bad habits now in PBSI... :crying:
I see. Colonial masters are not totally bad. It is true that a common strategy for them is to "divide and rule" in order to maintain power and control. Singapore under the British, was geographically compartmentized into different living districts/areas for the different races so that they cannot easily come together to unify against their masters. But Singapore inherited, apart from the grand colonial buildings and engineering structures which now from part of our heritage, a very good set of administrative, legal and judical systems that make government, commerce and industry tick. Adherence to the rule of law and the proper keeping of records, including accounting records, gave Singapore a good start when it became self-governing and later independent after breaking away from Malaysia. But the most valuable asset that Singapore took away was English as a language of business and communication. It has the indirect effect of uniting the people, since different races would want to promote their own language, and enable Singapore to deal and learn from the West.
The success of TCS in Vietnam proves Rasid Sidek is good enough we can rely on his 08-12 project. TCS should be trained and play more like LD style, A good offence is always a good defence. TCS can play aggresive game which other MAS senior players lack of, except LCW. What he needs to improve is his stamina. Rasid and Fu KoK Keong used to trained this under Fang (his ex coach and now INA coach)
Funny! this Djarum Badminton Club have all the Maria..s. with them and may be next time we could see Indon Women Team with all these Maria in it...cool
Don't worry my friend. Nothing to malu about. We all share and learn along the way... apart from badminton.
Surprisingly, it was a Dutch economist who masterminded Singapore's early economic development that led to prosperity today. This former UN expert stayed on in Singapore as an economic consultant to the government.
It is true that the British had a different vision of themselves than the Dutch. The Brits believed they were 'the chosen people' that were blessed to rule the Earth and really wanted their provinces to be part of a prosperous global empire where the Sun never sets... Can't say the same for all the imperialist, eh?!? Kidosetiawan, I didn't say that all Indonesians behave like our Dutch colonialist. I just listed some of the bad examples they taught us... That list does not describe all Indonesian. I only listed historical facts... Hard to deny the Dutch did all that [in the past]... Unluckily for us, some practiced and even try to perfect what the teachers taught... Luckily, some of the students were not paying attention to the Dutch... [Probably those who were too busy playing badminton and watching badminton tournaments... ] Ok, I am sorry. This discussion is getting off topic. Back to talking about the 2007 Vietnam Challenge...
As I mentioned before that definitely he has avery bright future...netting and snash are there....all he needs is abit more patience and BAM should send him to more tournaments so TCS can learn to take pressure.....overall I was impressive with his neeting, smash and his stamina.....glad to see another rising star in the making....
