Tan Boon Heong, our top badminton doubles player owns the world record of smashing the shuttlecock that was so fast, it flew at a blistering speed of 421kph. This was faster than a zooming F1 car along the straight, which could only go till around 400kph. In other words, it was like making my journey from KL and reaching Sungai Petani in 1 hr time via North South Highway.
I think we should salute this chap, and he should be on the forefront list of incoming Datuk or Dato' due to the following reasons:
1) It was achieved on his own initiative
2) The result came after many years of hard work
3) He did it while fighting with the word "Malaysia" proudly displayed on his back
4) It was not a government sponsored effort
