It has been a long time, now, since Halim Haryanto (photo) left Indonesia for sunny California and became a sparring partner and coach for the US Badminton Federation. He followed in the footsteps of former partner Tony Gunawan, who had left Indonesia and represented USA to win Gold in the 2005 World Championships. If Halim had a lower profile, he also stayed in the shadow during his post career years, allowing himself to play in the local event.

Chong Wei Feng was the only Malaysian on the day to cede gold to another country, however, as his compatriots picked up 3 more titles along with two silvers that happened to come in all-Malaysian finals.
