The charge was led in mixed doubles by Dechapol Puavaranukroh/Sapsiree Taerattanachai, who had little trouble in fending off the challenge of Dutch duo Robin Tabeling/Selena Piek in 35 minutes, 21-16 21-12.

Aimsaard sisters Benyapa and Nuntakarn, winners of the Thailand Masters in January, had some early trouble against Rin Iwanaga/Kie Nakanishi, but after winning six straight points to level at 10, the Thais led all the way to a 21-17 21-7 victory.

Thailand also had a second pair in the semifinals, with Jongkolphan Kititharakul/Rawinda Prajongjai beating Jeong Na Eun/Kim Hye Jeong in straight games.
