Badminton centers get sponsors

JAKARTA (JP): The Jakarta and Yogyakarta badminton training
centers sealed the receipt of financial assistance yesterday from
two banks.

The Jakarta branch will receive Rp 6 million (US$460) each
month from Prima Express Bank while the Yogyakarta branch is to
get Rp 5 million each month from Haga Bank.

Badminton Association of Indonesia Secretary-General Leo Ch.

and nine girls.

Of the 26 centers across the country, three do not have
sponsors anymore; South Sumatra, which was sponsored by state-
owned fertilizer company PT Pupuk Pusri; South Sulawesi, which
was sponsored by Bosowa Group; and the Jakarta-based Pelita Jaya.
