The trio has dominated the podium and this piece of news is just ah-mazing!

Prior to the 2023 Southeast Asian (SEA) Games, which are slated to take place in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, from May 5 to 17, he stated that this triumph is an enormous boost for them. Vasanthan is set to take part in the 10,000-meter run for men in the 2017 SEA Games.

Besides competing in the 5,000-meter run, Ikbolasen is participating in the men's 10,000-meter run while Daren will compete in the 3,000-meter steeple chase and the 5,000-meter run for men.

On the other hand, Nurul Ashikin Abas clinched the gold medal for the women's long jump gold with a leap of 5.88m. You go, girl!

On top of that, the women's 800m run saw winners Sarvinder Kaur and Hizillawanty Jamain take first and second place, respectively.

Jonas Chang Anak Rigan, yet another athlete who is heading to the SEA Games, secured second place in the men's shot put with a throw of 16.50 meters. Best wishes for our Malaysian atheletes who are making their way to SEA Games 2023!
