JAKARTA (JP): The Badminton Association of Indonesia (PBSI)
received financial aid on Tuesday from five private companies to
fund five of its provincial training centers.

The five firms, Jaya Raya of Yogyakarta, Lippo of West Nusa
Tenggara and West Java, Pusri of South Sumatra and Sumber Mas of
East Kalimantan agreed upon a financial commitment of between Rp
3.5 million (US$1,600) and Rp 4 million ($1,800) per month over
the next two years to help the PBSI-run local training centers.

"We are concerned about speeding up the emergence of local
badminton talents who are about the same level with those in
Jakarta," PBSI chairman Surjadi said after signing the deal.

Surjadi added he planned to set up a new format of nation-wide
competitions by splitting the existing clubs into several
divisions. (amd)
