Their chances.. ..so far, only Kido & Setiawan have shined for INA & won both the Denmark and French Open SS (last yr)..Flandy & Vita won the French Open XD title in 2007.. What are their chances of success in both?? It depends on how stiff the competition will be (is the CHN squad going to send its full 1st team)?? M'sia squad?? KOR squad??..
To answer the original post: Can we? Yes of course we can, as we have capability and possibility to do that Will we? Errr.... I dunno, depends on our LUCK So far INA only get 2 out of 40 SS titles overall Hope INA players will fare better in Den and Fra Good Luck
Really depend on other countries participants and draw. Markis K and Hendra S had the most high chances to win Denmark or French as long as they did not meet JJS/LYD. Women singles and women doubles, very very hard to win. Mix doubles, even if China and Korea did not send their strongest pairs, Denmark pairs will also very tough to beat. NOva not at his best anymore. Men singles. Depend if Lin Dan play or not.
i don't know, its home ground for the Europeans... so they are playing in favour with their crowd and comfort. Peter Gade took home both Denmark/French last yr, I think Tine R. won as well... but we'll see. Best of luck for everyone.
Yeah, so sad that Maria Kristin's WR is #48 now (per 01 October 2009, newly updated through BWF website). For woman category, not pessimistic but on paper slim prospect to win title in both SS. Answer for thread question -- Yes, INA can win title in DEN & FRA SS, likely through MD discipline as best chance.
"Is Obama an Indonesia citizen" was a hot topic back in 2008, so his photo is fine if that would help INA win titles...
^^Off topic-Was Barry Soetoro ever an INA citizen??..^^ ..Sure there are reports of that hot topic and there is a pic, circulating online, showing a paperwork of him attending a school in INA. But, AFAIK, there has never been an official paperwork showing him being a legal citizen of INA, while he was a kid back in the 60s. Even during that time, a person didn't have to be a legal INA citizen to attend an Indonesian school. Plus the process for one to become an INA citizen from another citizenship is not easy. Usual time is 5 yrs, but could be hasten if one marries an INA citizen. So, there is no real evidence or proof he was ever an INA citizen. Only a bunch of questions & all based on assumptions.
Well, that might be a good news for Obama, because Lolo Soetoro registered Barry Soetoro as a Indonesian citizen born Aug. 4, 1961, in Honolulu, Hawaii. Even once a Indonesia Citizen, that would not necessarily disqualify Obama as the president. Obama's biggest problem is the rumor that he may have been born in his father's home country of Kenya. That will definitely disqualify his presidency. Therefore, Barry Soetoro register card verified that he was born in Hawaii, that's a good news for Obama.
There was never a solid argument to approve or disapprove. But one thing is sure. He was once apart of Indonesian community. Having a white mother, with kenyan immigrant father, childhood in Indonesia with a Indonesian muslim stepfather, teenage years with white grandparents, grown up to be a black american Christian. He is a global citizen who owned so much support from foreigners. Though the best answer on his credibility is best left to the Americans! Indonesians can claim Obama to be apart of them. They can use Yes, We can! slogan.
Off topic-Was Barry Soetoro ever an INA citizen??.. - It's not about whether he was born in the U.S. or not. That argument is probably no longer valid. It's about whether he was an INA citizen or not. - Yes, there was a never a solid argument/proof to prove or disapprove that he was ever an INA citizen. - Being & feeling as one of the citizens of a country is different than not being one. - Just because he was adopted not because he wanted to but out of necessity?
