Sze Fei-Izzuddin off to shaky start in Indonesia Open
KUALA LUMPUR: World No. 1 Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani survived a stern opening test to set up an all-Malaysian second-round clash with Nur Mohd Azriyn Ayub-Tan Wee Kiong at the Indonesia Open. Sze Fei-Izzuddin were made to work hard before overcoming Taiwan's Lee Fang Chih-Lee Fang Jen 17-21, 21-17, 21-14 in a 58-minute battle at the Istora Senayan in Jakarta on Tuesday. The win marked their fourth straight victory and extended their head-to-head dominance over the world No. 21 Taiwanese brothers to 7-1. The come-from-behind victory came as a relief for Sze Fei-Izzuddin, who are under pressure to maintain their world No. 1 status for a third consecutive week. Next up, they face familiar opponents in Azriyn-Wee Kiong — fellow independent shuttlers and training partners — for a place in the quarter-finals. Azriyn-Wee Kiong had earlier cruised past China's Xie Hao Nan-Zeng Wei Han 21-17, 21-12 in a confident display.

Her counterpart Arief Johan, 29, said that the showcase was proof that the scene in the region can no longer be ignored. "The industry has grown a lot since satay and roti canai made an appearance in Final Fantasy XV. This showcase is a celebration of games that speak not only to our region but are a testament to the rest of the world that games and developers from Southeast Asia can no longer be overlooked. Arief said that the showcase was proof that the video game scene in the region can no longer be ignored. "I hope the showcase cajoles publishers, platforms, and other partners to take a closer look towards the region and identify even more means to amplify the stunning work local developers are building," he said. A total of 46 games from the region will be showcased, with nine games from Malaysian game makers and studios. Among those slated for the showcase include Am I Nima by Canada-based Ho!
