JAKARTA - Indonesian badminton legend, Susy Susanti, does not want to interfere in PBSI's internal affairs regarding the news of the dismissal of Praveen Jordan / Melati Daeva Oktavianti from Pelatnas.
Currently, rumors about Praveen/Melati being kicked out of the National Training Center are being discussed. However, Susy chose to remain silent because she felt that she had no authority over the matter.
"I don't want to comment much," said Susy Susanti when contacted by VOI, Sunday, January 9.
Until now, PBSI itself has not issued a decree (SK). The decree regarding the composition of Pelatnas will most likely come out after the PBSI national selection which will take place on January 10-15.
Praveen/Melati are currently the best mixed doubles in the country. Meanwhile, in the BWF rankings they occupy the fifth position in the world.
In addition, this pair won the All England 2020. However, the risk of them being dropped from the Cipayung National Training Center remained.
"All rights are absolute for PBSI. If they enter Pelatnas there must be a reason and if they are released there is a reason. If I am outside, I don't want to comment because the full authority is in PBSI," said Susy.
Praveen/Melati's trip over the past year did not live up to expectations. They came home early in the quarter-finals of the Tokyo Olympics after losing to the first seeds from China, Zheng Si Wei/Huang Yaqiong.
They also had to accept unsatisfactory results when they played at home at the Indonesia Master 2021 in Bali. In this event, they went home early in the first round after being beaten by non-seeds from India, Dhruv Kapila/Reddy N. Sikki.
Apart from Praveen/Melati, the name Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja will also be dropped from the National Training Center.
