On April 14, the Malaysian badminton team held their final training session at the Badminton Academy of Malaysia.

Reports last October indicated that several players from the Malaysian national team requested a salary increase from the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM), hoping to raise their annual salaries to 2 million ringgits.

Daren Liew, the bronze medalist in men’s singles at the World Badminton Championships, and skill analyst Gan Teik Chai have been suspended by the Badminton World Federation (BWF) for alleged match-fixing.

During the Paris Olympics qualification period, there have been changes in the team of Malaysian badminton player LEE Zii Jia.
