JAKARTA The Central Board of the Indonesian Badminton Association (PP PBSI) officially attracted Indra Wijaya to the Cipayung National Training Center (Pelatnas). He was lined up to lead the women's singles sector.
The former Malaysia men's singles coach Lee Zii Jia officially occupies his new position at PBSI as of March 1, 2023. This was confirmed by the national badminton parent through uploads on Instagram.
"PP PBSI is proud to announce that Indra Widjaya officially joins Pelatnas as the head coach of the women's singles sector as of March 1, 2023," wrote PBSI.
Indra Wijaya was an Indonesian badminton legend in the 1995-2000 era. While still active as a player in the public, he was known as a specialist badminton player in the single sector.
He was noted to have been part of the 1998 Thomas Cup champion team. In addition, he has also won the 1991 and 1994 Open Poland junior world championships.
Before being withdrawn by PBSI, Indra had a feud with Lee Zii Jia because of a contract violation. Several reports say the problem made Indra even have to take legal action.
He left the Badminton Malaysia Association (BAM) in February 2022 and signed a contract as coach Lee Zii Jia until 2024. However, Indra was fired last November, following a series of poor performances.
