1. Indonesia was not informed of people positive for Covid-19
As is known, the reason the red and white team was forced to withdraw from All England this year was because they were on a plane with someone who tested positive for Covid-19.
However, so far both the BWF, the All-England committee, the government and the British Health Authority (NHS) have yet to say who the person was who harmed the Indonesian team.

“However, so far we have not been told who the passengers on the plane are who have interacted with 24 people (including Indonesian officials).”
“It really doesn’t make sense. Who was the passenger on the plane that was affected by Covid-19,” Agung said.
2. The Turkish representatives were allowed to contest
The controversy then continued with Turkey’s women’s singles Neslihan Yigit, who was allowed to compete despite a plane being found to be with the Indonesian team.
Neslihan Yigit’s name is still on the All England second round match schedule (last 16).
This is inversely proportional to Anthony Sinisuka Ginting, who had to drop out of the prestigious badminton tournament.
“At the same time, there are Turkish players and coaches and they can keep playing. That is a fact,” Agung said.
However, more recently, Neslihan Yigit resigned from All England according to a BWF report.

“You can imagine how strange it is for us that we have been vaccinated, not only were they not allowed to compete, but they also asked to be isolated for 10 days,” Agung said.
“I really don’t understand if this is discrimination or not. If you can’t compete, go home, then you should. However, we were isolated.”
“We are still waiting for more information from the NHS,” he said.
4. The controversy of the match Ahsan / Hendra vs Lane / Sean (England)
The controversy was seen when the country’s men’s doubles Mohammad Ahsan / Hendra Setiawan competed in the first round on Thursday (3/18/2021).
Ahsan / Hendra challenged the British representative, Ben Lane / Sean Vendy. So, The Daddies managed to win after going through a powerful fight. rubber game.
Attention is paid to the party line judge who is British.
