Chong Wei, in a telephone interview from Tokyo, said his preparations for the tournament wasn't good enough and that he was not fully fit. "The amount of training I had for the tournament was not sufficient. Also, the celebrations and special functions (after his silver medal in Beijing) disrupted my preparations," said Chong Wei, who added that he also lost a few days of training as he was down with a fever.
"I was struggling in this tournament and today (yesterday) Sony pushed me against the wall. I was tired and couldn't recover after several long rallies.
Errrr, is it only me, or there are really some 'voices' that attribute Sony's victory more to Chong Wei's injury rather than his hard effort?
If I remember correctly, it's stated that his hand is just slightly injured / painful.
Its normal things that when Malaysia player went down, sure got a lot of excuses.
Datuk Lee again performs ''superbly'' in the final. The result showing No.1 World Ranking Player's standard?
Or Datuk Lee is only capable to perform well until semi-final?
I can say that the result produced is lousy, as same in the Beijing Olympic Game.
**Or Datuk Lee dont want the title ''Tun''? (He might be conferred the title ''Tun'' if he win the Japan Open - Gold medalist)
Because of that he simply play?

Tommy Smith got Bigger Balls Than Chong Wei
A lotta people are angry or disappointed with Chong Wei for being a puppet of UMNO by-election.What do you do when the country no.1 and no.2 tell you that a military plane will take you to Pematang Pauh to receive your RM300k and RM3k life long pension?
Tell them to go to hell and say you don’t need the RM300k + RM 1.8 millions (RM3k x 12mth x 50years or so)?
Remember the Mongolian who got blown up into pieces by C4!
Remember the missing Private Investigator?
Remember the missing Doctor?
Chong Wei might as well handcuff and accused of match fixing?
Or even worst Chong Wei played Misbun a88hole!!!
There aren’t much choice, isn’t there?
Is either heaven or h3ll and the choice is pretty obvious, isn’t it?
Lee Chong Wei chooses not to be Tommy Smith!Chong Wei Choose to be just another sportsman.
What Tommy Smith did what exceptional, he did that when two of American Great Black Leaders Malcom X and Martin Luther King Jr. has just been assassinated.
Tommy gave up his fortune to fight for equality and he wasn’t afraid to die for a clause he believe in.
It’s obvious that Tommy got bigger balls than Chong Wei physically and mentally, that’s why Tommy is a multi-Olympic Gold Medallist while Chong Wei is only a silver medallist.!

Sport for unity!
I reached Kota Kinabalu around 7.30pm from Keningau, the first thing I look for is a place to eat and watch Lee Chong Wei Play. I stopped at a food stalls near Beverly hills and it was usual to have such a large crowd during this hour.
Just for one night, our super interesting politics took a rest and our politician can assure that for a night, their names weren’t mention as much as Lee Chong Wei. I wasn’t able to find an empty table so I settle down with some Malay kids who is Rempit like but I don’t care as long as I can watch the game.
Hundreds of people watched the live telecast; we sat together regardless of races and religions. We cheered and clapped each time Malaysian shuttler Lee Chong Wei gained points against Chinese Lin Dan in the men’s singles finals in the Beijing Olympics.
I truly believe that Sport can unite Malaysia, because we see through colour and believes in sports. Doesn’t matter if its badminton, football or anything else, Malaysian just forget how different we are.
Despite Lee's loss to Lin Dan in straight sets, I’m proud that Malaysia had managed to reach the finals. I’m extremely proud of Lee. Win or lose doesn’t matter now, as I saw the unity of races that night. I am sure we have a future here in Malaysia.
My friend James and his girlfriend chose to skip a wedding party to watch the final. Not sure what drive this entire people to support Lee but I’m sure we all proud of him.
This is a really meaningful event because our fellow Malaysian had the chance to win the gold medal and I rated this as important as Permatang Pauh by-election.
Lee is my favourite player and I am sure he tried his best even though he did not win, pressure just got to him. The RM 1 million is tempting but I’m sure he is fighting for honour instead of money.
I heard that both candidates for the Permatang Pauh by-election took about an hour's break from their walkabouts to watch the match between Malays’a Lee Chong Wei and China’s Lin Dan.
Datuk Arif Shah Omar Shah and Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim watched the live telecast barely 3km away from each other in Seberang Jaya.
While Arif Shah joined a group of youths to witness the match at a nasi kandar restaurant along Jalan Todak, Anwar stopped at a small stall on Jalan Tenggiri to watch the game.
They were not the only ones who took a break for sports – Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak watched the live telecast at the Umno Youth main operations centre at Jalan Kubang Semang.

Why Malaysia Badders Failed to Win Gold in Olympic?
Lee Chong Wei after playing doubles with Ling Hee Liong aka Ling Liong Shit's son before General Election 2008! Promote badminton kononnya... 
Koo Kien Kiat, Tan Boon Heong, Choon Tan fook & Lee Wan wah *promoting* Badminton during Machang by-election! Just after Boon Heong & Kien Kiat won All England... THEY LOSE BECAUSE THEY BOARD A SINKING SHIP! BARISAN NASIONAL!Wednesday, August 13, 2008
Koo Kien Kiat & Tan Boon Heong *Blinks*Blinks*
The Australian term of walkabout best describes Koo Kien Kiat & Tan Boon Heong, For sometime now, the pair has done nothing but given false hopes to the fans.
Yesterday’s match showed how little knowledge they have accumulated and as a result, they paid the price and were awesomely destroyed by the Indonesia pair.
I had been frustrated by Malaysians' efforts in the past and yesterday have aggravated my dislike of Malaysian sportsmen and their capabilities even more.
Koo Kien Kiat & Tan Boon Heong are miles away from anyone's dream of heroes - I think they will be struggling for a while unless their brains pick up. There were glimpses of their capabilities but these are nothing more than just glimpses. Glimpses don't win tournaments unfortunately. There are many things wrong here but I would like not to comment further except that it is hard to see any more big wins for them.
Many here think I am anti-Malaysian, mean, pure evil or not patriotic. Yes, I have been critical, in fact very critical not only about our badminton but all our sports in general. I grew up playing football and was lucky enough to be involved with the national juniors. And I am not saying I am as good as Maradona or Pele but I was decent. "Got potential la" as my Cikgu Jumain used to tell me when I was playing inter-school football back in Sabah.
When I got involved with the national juniors, I saw the nonsense with my own eyes i.e. politicians, biased selection (based on certain 'factors'), freeloaders traveling with us and etc. You gotta be there to experience it to really understand the scenario. The entire set up was unprofessional and that prompted me to say goodbye to the game. Mind you I played in the M-League for Sabah back in 02/03 but I decided sports has no future in Msia, especially when the set up was 'primitive', thus I decided to fully concentrate on my studies.
And I stand by my statement that our sports on the overall basis have declined tremendously. This is because of our administration of it having been very poor. Look at our Commonwealth games village and the sports facilities in Bkt Jalil today. The condition and maintenance of those facilities are very poor. Many are in bad shape. And this is all due to administration; there is a proverb that says the fish rot from the head down.
What’s the use of having Malaysia Boleh when we are consistent underachievers? Malaysia Boleh to me is mere hype, designed by the powers that be to pull the wool over our eyes. We should emulate the South Koreans or even the Australians. During my football days, I have seen how the South Koreans juniors train and conduct themselves off the field. And they are all business, their players dare not step out of line cos' their coach will chew them up. It is no wonder why they are performing on the world stage while we still struggle to pay our players their monthly salaries.
Back to our badminton, Wong Mew Choo is a god sent to us. I will say it again; all aspiring shuttlers should emulate her conduct. As for yesterday's Koo Kien Kiat & Tan Boon Heong match, look at our numerous gold rings, chains, bracelets and a whole bunch of blinks-blinks. I have nothing against blinks-blinks BUT these things must come after success, not the other way round. The way to achieve 'glory' is thru hard work and determination, not having it tattooed on your arm.
Like all Malaysians, I want to see us win our first Olympic gold medal and if Lee Chong Wei can win it, going bald for me is a small thing.
