Team Singapore Gets Ready For the 24th SEA GameS
By Mark Koh It's SEA Games' time. And Team Singapore is all geared up for the action in Thailand from 6 - 15 December. Following the opening ceremony on 6 December, the competition is expected to heat up among athletes from the 11 countries participating in this year's event. In all, 43 sports will be featured in this year's SEA Games. Singapore's athletes will be going all out for a good showing before the closing ceremony on 15 December. It will be a challenge but they will want to match or exceed the 42 gold medals that Team Singapore won at the Manila SEA Games in 2005. So expect the very best from our athletes whether they are competing in Korat, Bangkok or Pattaya - the locations for this year's competition. A fine showing in Thailand will augur well for us as we prepare to host the SEA Games in 2013. This is all the more so as our team is made up of many young athletes, including swimmer Quah Ting Wen (pix), triple jumper Stefan Tsang and shuttler Kendrick Lee.
