The Chinese Taipei Badminton Players’ First Semester Report (Part 2)

 Hello! I am back with another Taiwanese shuttler in 2026. Previously, Chi Yu-Jen, Lin Hsiang-Ti, Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan, Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih Yun, and Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang were the second-ranked players in each discipline.  We are gonna to see what they have been through in the first semester of 2026, while I am noticing their progress in the last semester of 2026. Some of them may be paying off their misfortune from before; besides, some of them do not have any progress yet. We will see later. But, for now enjoy this article I have resumed before. 

Chi Yu-Jen started his World Tour tournament journey as the third Men's Singles player of the Chinese Taipei National Team after Chou Tien Chen and Lin Chun-Yi. He started his journey quite well. He took a very early exit (round 32) in the Petronas Malaysia Open 2026 after Kodai Naraoka defeated him in two games. Then, he made it paid by reaching the quarterfinal round in the Yonex-Sunrise India Open 2026 after had a tight match with Victor Lai in one and half hour in three games, and in the Daihatsu Indonesia Master 2026, he reached the semifinal round after the host representative MS, Alwi Farhan, defeated him in two games in the Daihatsu Indonesia Master 2026. 

He repeated his best performance by reaching the semifinal round of the Yonex German Open 2026 before the French representative, Toma Junior Popov, defeated him in the semifinal round. Chi Yu-Jen could not make it any further since he only played in the first round of the All England Open Badminton Championship 2026. Yu-Jen retired in the deciding match against his senior compatriot, Chou Tien Chen. But he continued to play in the Orleans Master Badminton 2026. Chi Yu-Jen did not make it past the Orleans Masters; Justin Hoh from Malaysia defeated him in three games in one hour and one minute. 9-21, 21-14, 22-24. 

Chi Yu-Jen did not have a good enough result in the Bank of Ningbo Badminton Asia Championship 2026. Yu-Jen had to lose to Ayush Shetty of India in the early round. But Chi Yu-Jen saved the Chinese Taipei Team from the deciding tie in the group stage of the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup 2026 against Ditlev Jager Holm of Denmark in 70 minutes. Yu-Jen won the third game, 21-11, 9-21, 27-25 in 70 minutes. What a dramatic match! If only Chinese Taipei had won the second game against South Korea’s Men’s Team, they probably wouldn’t have had such big pressure in the final match in the group stage. However, Chi Yu-Jen did not make it when he lost to Choi Jihoon in three games. 

In the Toyota Thailand Open 2026, Chi Yu-Jen lost in the first round. He lost to his compatriot, Lee Chia Hao, in two games. Then, Yu-Jen reached the quarterfinal round in the KFF Singapore Open 2026. The host country men's singles player, Loh Kean Yew, defeated him in three games, 21-16, 6-21, 8-21, in 55 minutes. Unfortunately, Chi Yu-Jen met Shi Yu Qi in the Polytron Indonesia Open in the first round, and he lost in straight games. Chi Yu-Jen also lost to his senior, Wang Tzu-Wei, in the Sathio Group Australian Badminton Open in three games in 75 minutes. 

If I could give a score for Chi Yu-Jen in the first semester of 2026: C

Well, the best result from Lin Hsiang-Ti in the first semester of 2026 was reaching the semifinal round in the Yonex Swiss Open 2026 after Tomoka Miyazaki decided to retire in the middle of the quarterfinal match. However, in the semifinal round, Hsiang-Ti played for more than one hour against Thailand representative Supanida Katethong. Unluckily, she lost in three games, 21-14, 18-21, 21-23. Lin Hsiang-Ti’s other best result was in the Sathio Group Australian Badminton Open 2026. Hsiang-Ti reached the quarterfinal round after the Japanese representative, Nozomi Okuhara, defeated her in straight games, and she failed to enter the semifinal round. 

Even though Lin Hsiang-Ti did not have any of the best result in any matches before the Yonex Swiss Open 2026 and the Bank of Badminton Asia Championship 2026, she proved that she kept making it better. She did not have any losing matches in the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup 2026. In the first match in the group stage, Chinese Taipei played against the Australian Uber Team. Lin Hsiang-Ti defeated Faye Huo in a straight game; in the second match, when the team against the Canada Uber Team, Hsiang-Ti had a tough match with Zhang Wen Yu in about one hour and both of the players completed the match in three games, Hsiang-Ti won the game, 19-21, 21-11, 21-18; in the final match in the group stage, the Chinese Taipei versus Indonesia. Lin Hsiang-Ti played as the WS 2 in the squad. Her opponent was the young Indonesian player, Ni Kadek Dhinda Amartya Pratiwi. Just like Chi Yu-Jen’s situation in the deciding match, Hsiang-Ti also had several deuce moments before she won the game, 21-10, 30-29. Hsiang-Ti won the game, however the team passed the group in the second place after the Indonesia’s. In the knockout stage, Chinese Taipei was scheduled to have a match with the South Korea Uber team. Chinese Taipei failed to reach the semifinal stage, but Lin Hsiang-Ti gave one point to her team. She defeated Kim Gaeun in two games in 43 minutes. 

If I could give a score for Lin Hsiang-Ti in the first semester of 2026: C

Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan started this year with unpleasing results. Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan took an early exit in the Petronas Malaysia Open 2026 after the India representative, Satwijsairaj Rankireddy/Chirag Shetty defeated them in a straight game, 21-13, 21-15. A week later, in the Yonex-Sunrise India Open 2026, Jhe-Huei/Po-Hsuan reached the quarterfinal round after they defeated the Malaysian pair, Goh Sze Fei/Nur Izzuddin in three games, 21-14, 17-21, 21-14, but, the other Malaysian pair, Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik defeated Jhe-Huei/Po-Hsuan in a straight game, 21-19, 21-14 in 31 minutes. Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan met another Malaysian pair again in the Daihatsu Indonesia Master 2026; they won against Ong Yew Sin/Teo Ee Yi in the first round. However, the host tournament pair, Raymond Indra/Nikolaus Joaquin, defeated Jhe-Huei/Po—Hsuan in three games, 14-21, 21-18, 21-24-22 in 59 minutes. Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan got nothing in the Bank Ningbo Badminton Asia Championship 2026 since they lost in the first round (R1) to the Singaporean pair, Koh Eng Keat Wesley/Junsuke Kubo, 21-18, 15-21, 16-21. 

Next, in the Yonex German Open and the Yonex All England Open Badminton Championship 2026, Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan stopped in the round 16 after they retired in the middle of match in the German Open, and Liang Wei Keng/Wang Chang from China defeated Jhe-Huei/Po-Hsuan 21-17, 14-21, 21-11 in 45 minutes in the round 16 of the Yonex All England 2026. Jhe-Huei/Po-Hsuan have only played once for the Chinese Taipei Men’s Team in the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup 2026. In the second match of the group stage, while the team was meeting the South Korea Men’s Team, Lee/Yang lost to the second pair of Korea’s Jo Song Hyun/Kim Won Ho, 22-20, 18-21, 19-21. Before that, Lee Jhe-Hue/Yang Po-Hsuan also joined the team in the Tsingtao Badminton Asia Team Championship 2026. Lee/Yang had chosen to play in the second match in the group stage against the Korean pair, Jo Sung Hyun/Kim Won Ho, and in the quarterfinal round (knockout stage) against the Chinese pair, Hu Ke Yuan/Lin Xiang Yi. In both of those games, Jhe-Huei/Po-Hsuan failed to give one point to their team and defend their 2024 Thomas Cup Bronze Medal.

Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan did not have any significant progress or results in the Southeast Asia tournaments: Perodua Malaysia Master, KFF Singapore Badminton Open, Polutron Indonesia Open 2026. In the Perodua Malaysia Master 2026, Jhe-Huie/Po-Hsuan lost to the host representative, Nur Mohd Azryn Ayub Azryn/Tan Wee Kiong in a straight game; both in the Singapore and Indonesia, Jhe-Huei/Po-Hsuan did not reaching the quarterfinal round after Satwiksairaj Rankireddy/Chirag Shetty defeated them in the KFF Singapore Badminton Open 2026; and, their junior compatriot, Lee Fang-Chih/Lee Fang-Jen defeated them in the Polytron Indonesia Open 2026. 

If I could give a score for Lee Jhe-Hue/Yang Po-Hsuan in the first semester of 2026: C-

Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jih-Yun got a lucky draw followed by the Chinese pair, Jia Yi Fan/Zhang Shu Xian had withdrawn in Round 16 in the Petronas Malaysia Open 2026. Unfortunately, Yin-Hui/Jhih-Yun lost to Yuki Fukushima/Mayu Matsumoto of Japan in the quarterfinal round. Yin-Hui/Jhih Yun didn’t take the result well afterward since they stopped in the first round in the Yonex-Sunrise India Open and the Daihatsu Indonesia Open. They succeed to come to quarterfinal round of Thailand Master 2026. They defeated their junior and compatriot, Chou Yun An/Sun Yi-Hsuan, in three games, were walked over due to Ririna Hiramoto/Kokona Ishikawa of Japan withdrawing from the competition, and finally they had to lose to the Indonesian pair, Febriana Dwipuji Kusuma/Meilysa Trias Puspitasari. 

In the World Tour held in some European countries, Hsu Yin-Hui/Jhih Yun seemed not to have found their best performance yet. They lost in the very first round in the Yonex German Open and lost in the first round in the All England Open Badminton Championship 2026, too. They also only reached the second round (R16) of the Yonex Swiss Open and Orleans Master Badminton 2026 Presented by Victor. We could say it was their luck because in the Orleans Master Badminton, Hsu/Lin got a bye. But Yin-Hui/Jhih Yun lost to their compatriot and junior, Lin Chih-Chun/Yang Chu Yun, in two games, 24-28. 21-23. 

Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih Yun was one of the Chinese Taipei representatives sent to the Bank of Ningbo Badminton Asia Championship 2026. However, they won the first match after defeating the Thai pair, Ornicha Jongsathapornparn/Sukitta Suwachai, and lost to the Malaysian pair, Tan Pearly/Thinaah Muralitharan, in the second round (R16). Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih Yun also had been chosen to join the team in the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup Finals 2026. Even though the Chinese Taipei Uber Cup went through to the knockout stage, Yin-Hui/Jhih Yun played in the first match of the group stage (when the team met the Australian pair) and in the third and final group match against the Indonesian team. 

Let’s see what Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih Yun got in Southeast Asian and Australian’s tour. Hsu/Lin lost to Bulgarian pair Gabriela Stoeva/Stefani Stoeva in the first round of the KFF Singapore Open 2026. Also, Yin-Hui/Jhih Yun lost to Rin Iwanaga/Kie Nakanishi in the first round of the Polytron Indonesia Open 2026. But Jhih Yun/Yin-Hui made their best progress in the Sathio Group Australian Badminton Open 2026. They reached the semifinal round after defeating Luo Yi/Wang Ting Ge of China in the quarterfinal in three games, 21-9, 21-12, 9-21. 

As the two last tournaments in the first semester, Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih Yun played in the North American tour, Yonex US Open 2026 and the Yonex Canada Open 2026. In both tournaments, Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih Yun reached the quarterfinal round. 

If I could give a score for Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih Yun in the first semester of 2026: C

This Taiwanese mixed-double pair, Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang, I already posted more about them previously because both of them are quite so long participated in any team events under Chinese Taipei flag with their seniors, and their juniors, recently. This time, we’ll focus on Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang’s match journey in the first semester of 2026. 

Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang had a not good starter in early January in the Petronas Malaysia Open 2026, they lost to German pair, Marvin Seidel/Thuc Phuong Nguyen in three games in very first round. Yet, Po-Hsuan/Ling Fang almost made it in the Yonex German Open 2026 the following week. Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang got into the semifinal round. In the semifinal round, they lost to the Chinese pair, Cheng Xing/Zhang Chi. Oh, in this tournament, Po-Hsuan/Ling Fang had defeated their country compatriot, Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan, in the second round. They won in three games. In the Yonex All England Badminton Championship 2026, Po-Hsuan/Ling Fang defeated the seeded pair from Denmark, Mathias Christiansen/Alexandre Boje, in the first round. However, they stopped in the second round after Pakkapon Teeratsakul/Sapsiree Taerattanachai defeated them in three games. Surprisingly, Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang lost to their home compatriot who their ranking still below from Po-Hsuan/Ling Fang’s, Wu Hsuan-Yi/Yang Chu Yun, in the first round of Orleans Master Badminton 2026 Presented by Victor.

In the Bank of Ningbo Badminton Asia Championship 2026, Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang got their revenge by defeating Cheng Xing/Zhang Chi in the round of 16 in three games. They lost to the Japanese pair, Yuta Watanabe/Maya Taguchi, in the quarterfinal round.  Po-Hsuan/Ling Fang reached the quarterfinal round again in the KFF Singapore Badminton Open 2026. Mathias Christansen/Alexandra Boje defeated them in the second round of the Singapore Open 2026. Also, in the Sathio Group Badminton Open 2026, Po-Hsuan/Ling Fang lost to the US pair, Presly Smith/Jennie Gai, in the quarterfinal round. But they could not make it far in both in the Toyota Thailand Open 2026 and Polytron Indonesia Open 2026. Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang lost in the round of 32, the very first round of the tournament.

As a comparison with Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang achievements in the first semester of 2025. They got into the quarterfinal round in the Petronas Malaysia Open 2025, the Yonex-Sunrise India Open 2025, and the Orleans Master Badminton 2025. 

If I could give a score for Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang in the first semester of 2026: C+.

Here they are! Thanks for reading. I hope I can continue to update on each Taiwanese national badminton player here soon. Okay, I'll get the note that the Chinese Taipei Badminton Player's Last Semester Report will be my next homework. See you for now!

The Taiwanese Badminton Players' First Semester's Tournament Report (Part 1)

 

Lin Chun-Yi has surprised us by winning the Yonex All England Super 1000 in March 2026. We noticed that his match journey at the Yonex All England 2026 was not as easy as we thought. Of course, it is a Super 1000-level tournament, and anything could happen on the court. There is only one player who has a strong motive: keep his/her focus well; he/she/they could win the tournament. Before Lin Chun-Yi got the title of the Yonex All England 2026 Winner, he defeated his senior and country-compatriot, Wang Tzu-Wei, in the first round; then, in the second round, the top player from Indonesia, Jonatan Christie, lost to Chun-Yi in two sets in 48 minutes. In the quarterfinal round, Lin Chun-Yi played against Christo Popov of France and won the game in two sets, too. The more higher World Ranking Player than Lin Chun-Yi, Kunlavut Vitidsarn of Thailand, lost to Lin Chun-Yi in the semifinal round. This was the only match that Lin Chun-Yi completed to win in a rubber set. He came into the final of the Yonex All England. In the final round, Chun-Yi defeated Lakshya Sen of India and grabbed the gold medal.

That was surprising enough, because after he grabbed the title in the Yonex-India Open last January, he had gotten down in the team event, the Tsingtao Badminton Asia Team Championship 2026. We guess due to it was the first time in the team event he played as the Men's Singles (MS)-1 for the Chinese Taipei’s Men’s Team. For the first time, he was a bit under-pressured (IDK, perhaps it was only my wild thinking). If we were looking back at Lin Chun-Yi’s matches in the Yonex-India Open, he entered the final round after defeating the youngster from Canada, Victor Lai, in three sets in one hour. However, in the final round, Lin Chun-Yi needed only 38 minutes to knock out Jonatan Christie in two sets. It was a good turning point to win since in the very early tournament of 2026, the Petronas Malaysia Open, Lin Chun-Yi stopped in the first round. A bad draw for him because he was against his senior, Chou Tien Chen.

Unfortunately, Lin Chun-Yi was injured, or he was sick, or something after winning the Yonex All England. He had to walk over from the Badminton Asia Championship 2026. He also did not give the maximum result when he was planning to compete in the team event, BWF Thomas & Uber Cup 2026 in Horsens, Denmark. Chou Tien Chen and Chi Yu-Jen were the main bullets for Chinese Taipei’s Men Singles in the group stage qualification since Lin Chun-Yi did not fit well. Lin Chun-Yi only played once in the group stage, against the host country, Denmark. He lost as MS-2 to Magnus Johannesen in three sets.

After the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup was held, I noticed from Lin Chun-Yi’s Instagram that he had already registered his and his girlfriend’s marriage. He is officially a husband now. I hope his marriage is not an excuse for his dropping performances in some tournaments after the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup 2026. He only participated in the KFF Singapore Open Badminton Open, Polytron Indonesia Open, and Sathio Group Australian Badminton Open. He even failed to pass the quarterfinal round for those three tournaments.

If I could give a score for Lin Chun-Yi in the 2026 first semester’s report: C+.

We are waiting for your great comeback, Lin Chun-Yi! 

The Badminton Lovers should have known Chiu Pin-Chian since last year. She surprisingly became the Winner of the Iksan Victor Korea Master 2025, and successfully entered the semifinal round again in the Kumamoto Master Japan Master 2025. Many people believed that Chiu Pim-Chian would be a potential women's singles player from Taiwan since she has good technique, good shots, and a very nice skill how to defense the opponent’s attack, however, she still has a lack of maintaining her stamina throughout the whole match.

Chiu Pin-Chian’s last year’s good performances does not seem run well through the first semester of 2026. The highest peak she could reach was when Chiu Pin-Chian got into the Quarterfinal round in the Yonex German Open in March after meeting and defeating her two compatriots in first and second round, Sung Shuo Yun and Pai Yu Po. She had to lost to Han Yu of China in the quarterfinal round in three sets, 26-24, 21-23, 10-21, in 1 hour 9 minutes.

Chiu Pin-Chian is the first and main ace of the Women Single and she took a role as a-WS-1 in the team squad. The Official and team trust her to play in every match both of Tsingtao Badminton Asia Team Championship 2026 and the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup Finals 2026. Also, she had made the Chinese Taipei Women’s Team in BATC got into the semifinal round and got a bronze medal. At Badminton Asia Team Championship, Chiu Pin-Chian mostly earned points for her team, except when the Chinese Taipei Women’s Team faced South Korea’s. Of course, Pin-Chian lost to their strongest Women's Singles player, An Se Young. However, in the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup Finals 2026, Chiu Pin-Chian had a plot twist! She couldn’t even win any matches when she was pointed by the official to play as WS-1. Oh, let me clear it, she only won when the team faced the Australians’ Uber Team. She took the game from Tiffany Ho in 34 minutes. She lost to another Women Team’s WS-1, like Michelle Chen of Canada and Putri Kusuma Wardani of Indonesia, in the group stage elimination, and An Se-Young of South Korea in the quarterfinal knock-out. The Chinese Taipei Team also failed to go through the semifinal round.

Then, another great performance of Chiu Pin-Chian in the first half of  2026 is reaching the quarterfinal of a Super-1000-level tournament, the Polytron Indonesia Open 2026. It was not really good, but when it is compared to the other results of hers, it is quite enough to be considered good. She reached the quarterfinal after defeating two players from Thailand, Ratchanok Inthanon and Pitchamon Opatniputh in the first and second rounds. Yet, she lost to Akane Yamaguchi in the quarterfinal round. Now, it is nice to see how Chiu Pin-Chian and Akane Yamaguchi see each other in the court. Sometimes it becomes a fast-paced match, but sometimes it can be a slow-paced match. Akane may dominate it, yet Pin-Chian is eager to learn from her past errors.

If I could give a score for Chiu Pin-Chian for the 2026 first semester’s report: C.

Chiu Hsiang Chieh and Wang Chi-Lin are pairing up right after Lee Yang—Wang Chi-Lin’s ex-partner and Tokyo and Paris Olympic Gold Medalist — stated that he has decided to retire from the national team and as a professional badminton player. In the beginning, Chiu Hsiang Hsieh/Wang Chi-Lin had a strong motive to rise up together as a pair. They only needed almost a year to break into the Top 20 of the world ranking, and became the Men's Doubles (MD)-1 of the Chinese Team. In 2025, too bad—Hsiang Chieh/Chi-Lin only won the champion in their home country, the Yonex Taipei Open 2025. Chiu/Wang rarely made it through the quarterfinal round until the make it into the semifinal round in the Kumamoto Japan Master 2024. They went through the HSBC BWF World Tour Finals 2025. Chiu Hsiang Hsieh/Wang Chi-Lin were eliminated in the group stage because they lost to all the participants in the group, Kin Wonho/Seo Seung Jae of South Korea, Man Wei Chong/Kai Wun Tee of Malaysia, and Sabar Karyaman Gutama/Moh Reza Pahlevi Isfahani of Indonesia. 

What happened to them? 
This year, Chiu Hsiang Hsieh/Wang Chi-Lin started their world tour in the Tsingtao Badminton Asia Team Championship 2026. They were set up to face Hong Kong China and South Korea’s Men Team. Hsiang Hsieh/Chi-Lin gave the team a point when they faced Hung Kuei Chun/Lui Chun Wei of Hong Kong China. But they failed to add one point when Hsiang Hsieh/Chi-Lin lost to Kang Min-Hyuk/Ki Dong Ju of South Korea. The Chinese Taipei team went through to the knockout stage. In the position 1-2 against China, the team should have won in the last MS section, but Chiu Hsiang Chieh/Wang Chi-Lin failed to nail it; in the fourth game or match of MD-2, they lost to He Ji Ting/Ren Xiang Yu. 

A good start for Chiu Hsiang Chieh/Wang Chi-Lin's Europe tournament tour. They got into the semifinal round. However, they should know that Julien Maio/William Villeger of France were stronger than them. When their teammate, Lin Chun-Yi, got the title in the Yonex All England, Hsiang Chieh/Chi-Lin could not even get through the second round. They lost to Malaysia representative Man Wei Chong/Kai Wun Tee in 2 sets in 33 minutes. 

Chiu Hsiang Hsieh/Wang Chi-Lin paid off their sorrows in the Tsingtao Badminton Asia Team Championship 2026. They scored for the team in the group stage of the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup 2026. They won against Mio Molin/Max Svenson (Sweden), Yong Jin/Seo Seung Jae (South Korea), and Daniel Lundgraad/Mads Vestergaard (Denmark).
Unfortunately, Hsiang Chieh/Chi-Lin did not got their peak performances afterward. They kept losing in early matches in the three Southeast Asian and Australian tournaments. Chiu Hsiang Chieh/Wang Chi-Lin lost to China representative, Chen Bo Yang/Liu Yi in three sets in KFF Singapore Open 2026; lost to Kim Won Ho/Seo Seung Jae in the Polytron Indonesia Open 2026; they lose even to their very new compatriot pair, Chen Cheng Kuan/Liu Kuang Heng in the Sathio Group Australia Open 2026 in two sets: 19-21, 17-21. 

If I could give a score for Chiu Hsiang Chieh/Wang Chi-Lin for the 2026 first semester’s report: C-

Come back stronger, boys! Oh, also, I do not want to forget to congratulate Wang Chi-Lin for being a dad. Congratulations! We hope that Wang Chi-Lin will get new spirit and energy in the future matches because he should make his little baby proud of him.

Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu started the BWF World Tour tournament with confident good results. In the Super 750 Yonex-Sunrise India Open, Pei-Shan/En-Tzu reached the quarterfinal round. They won only two sets two in in the first and second rounds. However, the Malaysian pair, Tan Pearly/Thinaah Muralitharan, defeated them in the quarterfinal. Meanwhile, their teammates grabbed their first title at the Yonex All England, Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu lost their match in the quarterfinal round. Pei-Shan/En-Tzu lost to China pair, Liu Sheng Shu/Tan Ning in two sets in 51 minutes. Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu failed to hold their “quarterfinal round-streak” in the Europe tour due to they lost to their country compatriot, Lin Xiao Min/Wang Yu Qiao in three sets in the second round.  Liu Sheng Shu/Tan Ning defeated Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu again in the quarterfinal round of Bank Of Ningbo Badminton Asia Championship 2026.

Then, Pei-Shan/En-Tzu has shown their best effort when they were contributing in the BWF Thomas & Uber Cup Finals 2026. They brought two points winning when the Chinese Taipei Uber Team was meeting Canada and Indonesia. Josephine Wu/Eliana Zhang and Amallia Cahaya Pratiwi/Siti Fadia Silvia Ramadhanti both are lost to Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu in two sets in the second and third group stage for the Chinese Taipei Team. Unfortunately, Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu made South Korea got the second point in the knock out round after Lee So Hee/Lee Yeon Wo defeated them in the rubber game in 69 minutes.

In the last tournaments before we closed the first semester of 2026, Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu is likely didn’t get their peak performance, like when they got their titles in 2025, the Yonex Taipei Open 2025 and the Sands China Ltd Macau Open 2025.

Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu got an early exit in the Toyota Thailand Open 2026 and the KFF Singapore Badminton Open. They retired in the Toyota Thailand Open 2026 when they were against Bao Li Jing/Cao Zi Han of China. But in the KFF Singapore Badminton Open 2026, they tried to complete their first match even though they lost to the Japanese pair, Arisa Igarashi/Chiharu Shida in two sets. In the Polytron Indonesia Open 2026, Pei-Shan/En=Tzu lost to the host country representative pair, Febriana Dwipuji Kusuma/Meilysa Trias Puspitasari.  In three games. And, the Malaysian pair, Low Zi Yu/Noraqilah Maisarah, defeated Pei-Shan/En-Tzu in three games in 100 minutes match in the first round of the Sathio Group Australian Badminton Open 2026.

If I could give a score for Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu for the 2026 first semester’s report: C.

Hopefully, Hsieh Pei-Shan/Hung En-Tzu can defend their title in their home country event tournament, the Yonex Taipei 2026. Good luck, girls!

It was right after the Paris Olympic, Ye Hong Wei had separated from his previous Mixed Doubles partner, Lee Chia-Hsin. He is partnered up with a young girl who has just moved up from the junior level, Nicole Gonzales Chan. Based on the article I read, Nicole Chan has mixed blood of Taiwanese and Filipino.  In the junior level era, Nicole played in Women's Doubles with her partner, Yang Chu-Yun. They also have a good record in the World Junior Championship 2023. Since Nicole Chan is set to play only in the Mixed Doubles section with Ye Hong Wei, her duet with Yang Chu-Yun is also being stopped.

Ye Hong Wei/Nicole G. Chan only need about one year to make sure their points through the Top 20 in the world ranking and become the second Mixed Doubles pair in the Chinese Taipei National Team, after Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang. Now, they are slowly but sure climb into the first Mixed Doubles pair in the national team.

In March, Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan surprised the Badminton Lovers when they won the Yonex All England Open Badminton Championship after defeating the seeded pair from France, Thom Giqcuel/Delphine Delrue, in two games. It was more surprising compared to what Lin Chun-Yi got in a similar tournament. In early 2026, Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan never went through the quarterfinal round in the Petronas Malaysia Open in last January, the Yonex-Sunrise India Open, Yonex German Open. And, *boom*, Hong Wei/Nicole Chan stated that they are the winners of the Yonex All England Open Badminton Championship 2026. Unfortunately, Hong Wei/Nicole couldn’t maintain their peak performances after winning in the Yonex All England Open Badminton Championship 2026. Not until the Southeast Asian world tour did a good draw allow them go through into the quarterfinal rounds in the Toyota Thailand Open 2026. Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan won against their compatriot in two-first matches, Wu Hsuan-Yi/Yang Chu-Yun and Tsai Fu Cheng/Sung Yu-Hsuan. In the quarterfinal round, they lost to the host country representative, Dechapol Puavaranukroh/Supissara Paewsampran in 57 minutes (three games). Also, in the Polytron Indonesia Open, Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan lost to their compatriots in the first two matches, Wu Guan Xun/Lee Chia Hsin, and the new pairing duo, Liu Kuang Heng/Hsu Yin-Hui. They lost in the quarterfinal round after the Chinese pair, Guo Xin Wa/Chen Fang Hui, defeated Hong Wei/Nicole Chan in a rubber game in one hour. In the KFF Singapore Badminton Open 2026, they lost to the Japanese pair, Yuichi Shimogami/Sayaka Hobara in 31 minutes, in just two games, in the first round.
For comparison, in the KFF Singapore Badminton Open 2025, Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan reached the semifinal round, and Dechapol Puavaranukroh/Supissara Paewsampran defeated them before the final round. Also, in the Petronas Malaysia Master 2025, Hong Wei/Nicole Chan reached the semifinal round, and they lost to Feng Yan Zhe/Huang Dong Ping.

If I could give a score for Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan for the 2026 first semester’s report: C+.

Hong Wei/Nicole Chan set in the first seeding in their home country tournament, the Yonex Taipei Open 2026; we hope they can make it completely. 

Well, see you in the Taiwanese Badminton Players' First Semester's Tournament Report part 2. We'll see the tournament journey of Chi Yu-Jen, Lin Hsiang-Ti, Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan, Hsu Yin-Hui/Lin Jhih-Yun, and Yang Po-Hsuan/Hu Ling Fang.

Surat Terbuka Untuk Seseorang Pernah Kupanggil Kakak Disana

 

Yogyakarta, Indonesia, 5 November 2025

Hai, Kak….   

Apa boleh aku memanggil nama lengkapmu? Aku masih hafal lho, Kak. Sangat hafal. Karena nama itu pernah tidak putus kupinta pada Allah. Hebat ya, Kak? Tapi, disurat terbuka ini aku tidak ingin memperlihat nama aslimu. Karena bagiku Kakak hanyalah seorang tamu yang pernah mampir dihidupku 13 tahun yang lalu. Terima kasih sudah sempat datang kehidupku ya, Kak?! Terima kasih sudah membiarkanku tahu akan adanya sosok seperti dirimu.

Kak, kalau kamu menemukan dan membaca surat terbuka ini, aku hanya ingin kamu tahu keadaan aku saat menulis surat ini, saat ini dimana aku sudah tidak lagi ingin bertemu denganmu, ingin tahu kabar dan segalanya tentang dirimu. Sekarang, aku mulai bisa menuliskan isi hatiku kepadamu karena aku sudah merelakan jikalau kamu memang tidak pernah ditakdirkan Allah untukku. Allah hanya ingin aku mengenalmu, Kak, untuk membangkitkan kembali semangat belajar, berkarya, dan ikhlas menerima apapun takdir-Nya.

The Beginning

Hai, Kak,

Boleh kamu putar kembali memori diotakmu? Kakak merupakan individu yang pintar, jadi aku yakin sekali (kalau kamu suatu hari) kamu mendapati surat terbuka ini, kamu akan bisa mengenali siapa aku, Kak, berdasarkan klu yang kutulis disini.

Hari itu Hari Selasa, tanggal 29 Mei 2012 disebuah tempat kursus Bahasa Inggris di  Area Kotabaru, Kota Yogyakarta (perlukah kusebut lembaga bahasa itu?), pertama kali aku melihatmu. Mungkin kamu tidak sadar ada seorang gadis yang mengamati gerak-gerikmu sejak kamu pertama kali membuka pintu ruangan kelas itu. Pada hari pertama itu kamu mengambil kursi diarah seberangku sehingga aku bisa melihat dirimu dengan jelas. Selain itu, jika aku tidak salah mengingat, kamu merupakan peserta kursus terakhir yang datang pada malam hari itu, tentu seorang dengan karisma se-tinggi-mu langsung mencuri perhatianku. Kemudian, tutor kelas kita dihari itu meminta dirimu melakukan perkenalan dihadapan teman-teman  sekelas.

Saat itu Kakak sedang menempuh studi bidang Manajemen di  Fakultas Ekonomika&Binis Universitas Gadjah Mada, kan? Kalau aku tidak salah juga Kakak masuk perkuliahan ditahun 2019—satu tahun sebelum aku masuk universitas. Setelahnya, aku bahkan bisa menebak tanggal lahir dan zodiak Kakak, lho! Hehe. It is because I was your biggest fan, Kak!

Oke, kita kembali kemasa kita mengikuti kursus Bahasa dulu ya, Kak?!

Apa Kakak ingat tutor kita pernah memberikan tugas presentasi didepan kelas dengan tema sebuah tempat atau sebuah negara dimana mengibaratkan kita sedang berlaga sebagai seorang pemandu. Apa Kakak ingat ada seorang peserta kursus yang membawakan materi tentang Negara Taiwan? Itu aku, Kak! Aku sangat terobsesi dengan segala hal berkaitan dengan Taiwan. Negara itu masih merupakan bagian dari Negara Tiongkok yang sedang mengusahakan kebebasannya menjadi negara sendiri dari induk negara, Tiongkok (seperti aku yang pernah berusaha sekuat tenaga melepas bayang-bayangmu).

Kamu ingat nggak, Kak? Saat itu Kakak memperkenalkan negara-negara Skandinavia kepada kita yang hadir dikelas itu. Kakak menyampaikan presentasimu dengan percaya diri, tidak seperti aku, Kak, aku justru grogi setengah mati ketika memperkenalkan Taiwan kepadamu dan teman-teman dikelas. Sama grogi dan salah tingkah ketika mendapat giliran praktik group speaking denganmu dan satu orang lagi (maaf, aku lupa siapa dia). Aku menjatuhkan bolpoinku, kemudian bukuku, karena aku tidak bisa menahan rasa senang berbicara denganmu, Kak!

Sayangnya, waktu pertemuan kita tidak sampai akhir periode kursus itu, Kak. Kalau tidak salah jelang lima atau empat pertemuan terakhir kelas, Kakak berbicara pada tutor yang mengajar hari itu, kalau Kakak tidak memungkinkan untuk ikut final test bersama kami karena Kakak perlu mengurusi  urusan perkuliahan Kakak juga di luar Indonesia (hanya saja aku tidak begitu jelas ke negara mana Kakak akan pergi). Kenapa aku tahu ya, Kak? Padahal kalau Kakak ingat saat itu semua peserta sudah keluar kelas, mungkin Kakak pikir hanya tinggal dirimu seorang bersama tutor kelas. Saat itu aku masih berada dikelas, Kak, mengepak buku kedalam tasku. Aku kaget dengan apa yang baru kudengar. Tidak menyangka akan secepat itu pertemuan kita dikelas. Aku bahkan belum berkenalan denganmu lebih serius, Kak. Dan, benar saja. Dipertemuan kelas berikutnya, aku sudah tidak melihat Kakak lagi. Kakak sedang dimana saat itu? Aku mencatat tanggal pertemuan terakhir dikelas itu adalah 18 Juni 2012, Hari Senin.

2013

Hai, Kak...

Kamu tahu, Kak, demi bisa melupakan dimana kamu setelah satu tahun sejak kelas kursus itu, aku coba melirik teman-teman laki-laki dikampusku. Ya, berharap ada seseorang sepertimu yang bisa mengaburkan rasa penasaran tentang dimanakah dirimu saat itu, aku ingin tahu keberadaan dan kabarmu. Aku kembali melihat dalam-dalam seseorang yang pernah kusukai sebelum bertemu denganmu. Tapi, hasilnya sudah berbeda, Kak. Tidak ada lagi rasa suka untuknya. Diawal perkuliahan, aku bisa jadi melihatnya begitu rupawan (meskipun kata teman dekatku tidak begitu), namun, mataku melihatnya sudah beda. Dia berubah menjadi seorang playboy, buaya darat, dan sejenisnya. Mungkin kalau dimasa itu sudah muncul istlah “redflag”, ya itulah dirinya. Tapi, dia—teman sekelasku sewaktu semester pertama dan kedua diperkuliahan waktu itu, terlanjur kujadikan visualisasi dari tokoh novel yang ingin segera kuselesaikan ceritanya. Dia telah menginsiprasi lahirnya tokoh Charly Abraham Putra, sementara Kakak-lah yang menginspirasiku menciptakan tokoh Romeo Dirgantara. Rasanya aku sudah saat ingin memperkenalkan tokoh Romeo Dirgantara kepadamu, Kak. I wish I can finish my draft as soon as possible, Kak!

Kak, ditahun ini, satu tahun setelah kamu menghilang, aku mulai mencoba buka hati untuk laki-laki lain. Harapanku cuma satu: ketika aku bersamanya aku bisa mengikis semua ingatanku tentangmu yang tak kunjung berkabar saat itu. Orang itu merupakan laki-laki yang baik, Kak, dia rela berbuat apa saja untuk membuktikan perasaannya. Teman-temanku banyak yang mendukungku melanjutkan kisah kita. Namun, sepertinya aku yang belum siap dengan itu, Kak. Aku justru merasa bersalah kepadanya. Karena didalam kepalaku, aku masih saja membandingkan dirinya dengan diri Kakak. Aku memutuskan akhiri semuanya begitu saja, tanpa memberi tahu dia yang sebenarnya. Karena pada waktu itu akupun tidak yakin dia bisa menerima alasanku yang masih terjebak perasaan pada orang lama.

Berakhirnya hubungan kasih aku dan orang itu tentu saja diketahui teman-temanku yang lainnya. Ya, mereka menyayangkan karena jalinan kasih kita terlalu singkat. Tapi, apa mau dikata, aku juga tidak bisa membohongi isi hatiku, kalau aku masih ingin berpetualang mencarimu jejakmu, Kak. Akan tetapi, tidak ada seorang teman dekatku yang tahu tentang dirimu lho, Kak. Semua tentangmu kusimpan rapat-rapat hanya untukku diri sendiri. Jadi, kalau mereka menanyakan aku sering memasang status dan tweet galau, gundah gulana pada waktu itu karena siapa, hanya bisa kujawab karena seseorang, tetapi bukan orang yang terakhir datang saat itu.

Hai, teman-teman dekatku, kalau kalian secara kebetulan maupun tidak menemukan surat terbuka teman kalian yang satu ini, Kakak yang ada disinilah yang sering membuatku memasang status galau dan gagal move on.

It's like a Forbidden Love |

2014

Aku tidak ingat banyak tentang tahun ini, apakah aku masih terbayang-bayang olehmu karena ditahun ini aku sedang disibukan dengan persiapan ujian komprehensif dan penyusunan skripsi sebagai syarat akhir masa studi dan mendapat gelas Sarjana Ekonomi. Ya, kita sama-sama bertitel S.E., Kak. Pernah aku memimpikan gelar kita bersanding dicetakan kartu undangan pernikahan kita kelak. Hehe. Angan tinggallah angan. Lupakan saja.

Sedikit yang kutahu tentangmu ditahun ini, kalau tidak salah mengamati akun Facebook-mu, Kakak sudah kembali ke Jogja, kan? Kembali meneruskan perkuliahan Kakak di Kampus UGM? Mungkin Kakak juga sedang menyusun skripsi juga?

Oh iya, Kakak ingat, aku pernah menghubungi Kakak lewat message di-Facebook. Aku menanyakan bagaimana aku bisa mendapat data untuk penelitian skripsiku dicabang bursa efek yang ada dikampusmu, dan apakah bisa non-mahasiswa kampus tersebut mengaksesnya. Kakak menjawab, bisa dan menyuruhku untuk datang langsung. Sebenarnya saat itu ditengah energi yang banyak tersita dalam penyelesaian tugas akhir, aku mencoba peruntungan kembali untuk mengobrol singkat denganmu, Kak. Maaf ya, Kak, kalau hanya membuang waktu Kakak untuk balas message tidak penting dariku.

Ditahun ini juga aku menyelesaikan studi S-1-ku. Aku sudah lulus, Kak! Sekali lagi, ingin sekali memberitahumu tentang hal ini sekaligus mengundangmu untuk datang keacara wisudaku, Kak. Tapi, tapi, aku terlalu malu untuk mengutarakan hal itu. Lagi-lagi sampai tahun itu berlalu aku hanya bisa memendam perasaan tak bertuan ini. Karena aku tidak tahu kemana dan bagaimana harus mengejarmu.

Satu tahun setelah aku diwisuda, Kakakpun diwisuda dan lulus dari jenjang S-1. Selamat ya, Kak. Ucapanku yang ingin kukatakan padamu lewat message FB pada waktu itu. Tapi, ah, aku malu lagi. Hehe. Kak, tapi, saat kamu mengunggah foto-foto wisuda dengan toga universitas milik Kakak dulu, aku nggak melihat Kakak foto berdua dengan seorang wanita yang mungkin saja jadi bagian paling spesial buat Kakak. Apakah saat itu memang ada dan kalian hanya stay private? Atau, ........?

Ah, sudahlah, Kak, it is okay. As long as you are happy and enjoy to your life, I am happy, too.

2017

Tahun-tahun sebelumnya aku sudah tahu Kakak bekerja di Jakarta. Oleh karena itu, aku memberanikan diri untuk merantau kekota yang sama denganmu. Harapanku masih sama seperti dulu, Kak, yaitu bisa kembali bertegur sapa denganmu. Tahun sebelumnya aku memutuskan keluar dari pekerjaan pertamaku sebagai Staf Marketing diindustri MICE di Jogja dan menguatkan hati dan niat mencari pekerjaan di Jakarta.

Aku mendapatkannya setelah berulang kali mengalami penolakan. Ini merupakan hal yang wajar kan, Kak? Aku sangat bersemangat menjalani hari-hari sebagai pekerja di ibukota ini, Kak. Karena setiap hari aku memiliki keyakinan memiliki kesempatan untuk bertemu denganmu dimanapun itu.

Informasi yang kubaca lagi dari Facebook Kakak—eh, bukan, kali ini sudah lebih modern dan profesional, karena kita sudah saling menambahkan jejaring di LinkedIn. Pasti Kakak nggak ingat yang satu ini ya? It does’t matter. Aku cuma mau bilang, sepemahaman aku, ditahun ini kalau tidak salah, Kakak berada di Australia, tepatnya di Sydney bukan, Kak? Kakak Sedang menempuh post-graduate study disana? Lokasi yang sangat jauh dan tidak mungkin kutempuh lagi, Kak. Akupun berpikir kalau memang Kakak tidak pernah ditakdirkan Allah untukku. Kakak hanyalah seseorang yang Allah lewatkan dan perlihatkan padaku agar aku bisa memotivasi diri untuk berkembang lebih baik dan memiliki semangat menggapai cita-citaku seperti Kakak yang sangat beruntung mewujudkan setiap mimpimu.

Oh iya, Kak, sampai pada masa inipun aku masih berusaha dan terus berusaha untuk menamatkan cerita Tiara, Charly, dan Romeo. Meskipun penuh keterlambatan, aku akan tetap melanjutkannya. Sebelumnya aku sudah pernah menyelesaikan draf pertamanya, Kak. Aku mematikan karakter Romeo Dirgantara karena keputusasaanku menemukan dirimu kembali. Namun, setelah kubaca ulang, aku terlalu takut tulisanku ini menjadi kenyataan, seperti halnya ucapan adalah doa. Maka, aku menuliskan ulang dan ingin merubah akhir ceritanya.

Kak, tungguin ya, akhir cerita mereka bertiga. Aku janji akan menyelesaikan dan menuliskan dirimu dalam Ucapan Terima Kasih Penulis kelak.

2022
Pandemi Covid-19 yang tidak pernah disangka-sangka oleh semua orang didunia ini ternyata sudah sedikit berlalu. Semua orang seperti sudah biasa dengan kebiasaan barunya. Online class and meeting, work from home or anywhere, selama mereka tidak saling berinteraksi langsung. Kak, disaat seperti ini aku sebenarnya ingin mencari kabar dan keberadaanmu lagi.  Aku ingin menanyakan kabarmu; apakah Kakak baik-baik saja, apakah Kakak pernah terjangkit virus itu; bagaimana caramu untuk bertahan dimasa itu? Bagaimana caranya, Kak? Sementara Kakak menghapus akun Facebook Kakak? Karena aku tidak bisa mencari namamu lagi disana. Kakak bahkan mengunci akun Instagram-mu Kak. Sepertinya semesta mendukungku berhenti mengejar bayangmu. Baiklah, aku menyibukkan diri dengan bekerja dikantor. Sekalipun seringkali mengalami hal-hal tidak mengenakkan dikantor dan ingin rasanya punya teman untuk berbagi cerita yang dilalui hari itu. Tetapi, aku memiliki semangat baru dalam bekerja diperusahaan itu, Kak. Aku bertemu seseorang yang mirip sepertimu: dia terlihat kalem, namun memiliki ambisi kuat untuk maju dan berkembang, dia juga seorang yang bertanggungjawab dengan tugas-tugas yang diletakkan padanya, sayangnya, ada satu hal yang kuingin tau darinya, kenapa dia menolak jabatan yang akan diamanahkan kepadanya. Yah, ternyata dia memilih mengundurkan diri dari perusahaan satu tahun setelahmya. Tanpa adanya orang itu, terkadang bayang Kakak muncul lagi dibenakku. Bertahun-tahun aku berhasil move on dari segala rasa penasaran akan dirimu seakan sia-sia. Seolah menyuruhku untuk kembali meminta jaga asa dan mencarimu lagi. Tapi, aku menolak keinginan diriku sendiri untuk kembali mengharapkan dirimu tiba-tiba datang lagi kehidupku. Hampir dua tahun aku berusaha menghapus bayangmu, tentu tidak akan kubuat diriku kembali terjebak dalam penyesalan masa lalu. Aku harus terus berjalan maju kan, Kak?! Memang tidak ada yang menemaniku dalam proses hijrahku saat itu. Aku niatkan agar Allah kelak membantuku lupakanmu dan memiliki rasa kasihan padaku sehingga ia mengirimkan seorang pengganti sepertimu bahkan lebih baik untukku. Ya, mungkin seseorang seperti mantan pegawai dikantorku itu.

 Oh, tidak, Kak. Aku menciptakan karakter lain sebagai temanku bercerita tentang menjalani proses hijrah ini. Mereka adalah Ardyan dan Erika. Cerita mereka akan kubagikan nanti di-link diakhir surat ini ya, Kak?

2024

Hai, Kak...

Ditahun ini aku sudah cukup berhasil move on dari bayanganmu bahkan aku sudah tidak mau tahu apapun tentangmu lagi. Yang aku selalu pinta kepada Allah adalah hanya aku minta untuk pertemukan aku dan Kakak kembali bukan sebagai takdir pasangan, tapi temukan kami sebagai rekan kerja atau relasi profesional saja. Sehingga dengan begitu aku akan bisa tersenyum bangga seraya menjabat tanganmu dan berkata dalam hati, “hai, orang yang tidak pernah putus kudoakan dalam doa usai shiolat-ku agar selalu dipermudah jalan kehidupannya dan selalu diberikan kebahagian oleh Allah.”

Meskipun ditahun ini pula aku baru mengalami sebuah kejadian yang berhasil mendewasakanku, bisa membuatku semakin menerima ketetapan Allah, Kak. Beberapa teman pernah kuceritakan tentang hal ini. Akan tetapi, tidak ada yang benar-benar bisa menenangkan pergolakan batinku pada waktu itu. Rasanya ingiiinnn sekaaaliiii punya teman cerita, teman berbagi cerita apapun itu, Kak. Aku ingin didengar, terkadang. Ada kalanya aku juga butuh memberi masukan, berdiskusi dua arah dengan seseorang. Sekali lagi perrnah kubayangkan orang itu adalah kamu, Kak. Sudahlah. Aku menepis bayang itu lagi dan kucoba fokus menjalani hidup, mengejar cita-cita yang baru akan terealisasi.

Ditahun ini aku beranikan diri mendaftar sertfifikasi bidang profesi yang sedang kujalani saat ini. Kita tidak mungkin hanya diam ditempat semula saja kan, Kak? Suatu hari nanti kita harus melangkah maju terus, kan? Itulah kenapa aku memutuskan mengambil sertifikasi profesi itu, Kak. Suatu saat ilmu yang akan kuperoleh akan bisa bermanfaat untuk Bapak/Ibu, Kakak-Kakak Pengusaha, serta membantu teman-teman pegawai diluar sana mendapatkan haknya. Semoga aku bisa dan konsisten mewujudkan cita-citaku, Kak.

Kak, sekian dulu ya, surat terbuka-ku ini. Sekali lagi, tujuanku menuliskan surat terbuka ini bukan untuk mencarimu, berharap kamu kembali lagi, tidak sama sekali. Aku juga mau move on, Kak. Aku ingin memberi ruang bagi orang lain masuk dalam hidup. Seseorang yang mungkin seperti Mas “L”.

Kak, Bahagia selalu dimanapun Kakak berada saat ini. Bahagiakan juga seseorang yang sudah beruntung mendapatkan hatimu. Jaga dia ya, Kak? Oh iya, Kak, sejauh apapun Kakak melangkah, jangan lupa untuk selalu memberi kabar pada keluarga, terutama orang tua Kakak ya?!

Kak, sampai jumpa dipuncak kesuksesan kita masing-masing. Aku percaya dengan kemampuan yang kita punya, kita akan bertemu didunia profesional.

Ada Tiara dan Erika yang sudah menungguku untuk menyelesaikan misi kita. Sampai jumpa!

"Hai, kita akan segere bertemu.
Tunggu aku ya?" - A
