I think this is Liang Ko-liang a regular member of China's Swaythling Cup team in the 1970s. One of the first world class exponents of using a combination bat of smooth rubber on one side and long pimpled rubber on the other - fantastic defender but his attack was also impressive. Still plays in the World Vet's tournaments and has won a number of gold medals.

China's victorious Swaythling Cup team in Nagoya was: CHUANG Tse-Tung, HSI En-Ting, LI Ching-Kuang, LI Fu-Jung, LIANG Ko-Liang
