KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 31 — National badminton legend Datuk Seri Lee Chong Wei has admitted that his role as Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) Performance Committee chairman has not been easy, particularly when making decisions involving players from a different generation.
Chong Wei, who was appointed to the position on October 18 last year, said the generational differences between today's players and those of his era made implementing changes challenging, requiring him to continue learning and adapting.
The former world number one men's singles player said he frequently sought the views and advice of BAM president Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz before making important decisions.
“It’s not easy because the generation (of badminton players) is not the same now, I learnt a lot from this generation.
