If you want to attend an Olympic Games in person without supporting the US economy, you could fly to LA on a Chinese airline, stay at a house owned by a Chinese-American powered by off-grid Chinese solar panels and BYD energy storage systems, and eat exclusively at Chinese restaurants during your stay. :cool:

We have seen anti-china propaganda at the Beijing Olympics and this one too with the doping accusation. Expect there to be NED funded anti-china protesters like free tibet, hong kong, xinjiang protesters causing trouble at least outside some of the stadiums in Los Angeles (same crew from sf xi visit). Patriots need to be careful and only do what is legal to not get booted out.

Malaysia is a powerhouse in badminton, they have won trophies in so many other competitions, but the Olympic Gold Medals have proven elusive even till today. China remains Malaysia's bogey opponent in the Olympics. Malaysia could defeat China in other competitions, but just not the Olympics. Malaysia had simultaneously crashed out of the semi-finals for both men and women doubles at the hands of China.

These were great matches to watch, and the Chinese teams ultimately won. Both teams were close, but the Chinese teams made less errors. The women's double match was good, but the men's double was just another level of intensity. These are the highlights:

Malaysia vs China Women's double. Malaysia put up a good fight. But started to lose concentration towards the end of Round 3.

Malaysia vs China Men's double. This was fun to watch, it was everything you want to watch in a badminton match. Intensity, guile, and finesse. The Chinese guys just don't seem to run out of energy even on Round 3.

For Malaysia, our last hope for Gold in badminton is Lee Zi Jia competing in the Men's Single.
