Heroic welcome to national shuttlers Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong at the airport

by CJCM on March 20th, 2007

The national badminton doubles pair had just won the All-England title recently. Continuing with their winning streak, Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong, our heroes, had won another major badminton tournament on Sunday, the Swiss Open.

I really hope the duo will maintain their high fighting spirits to win more tournaments in the future for the sake of our national pride. Malaysia Boleh!

Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Azalina Othman will be at KLIA tonight to receive badminton doubles aces Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong, and she is inviting fellow Malaysians to join her in giving them a rousing reception.
