China Claims SEA Games Gold !

Oops, I mean Singapore.

Straits Times 6th Dec 07
» Sports Paddlers are tops once again

KORAT - SOMETIMES, numbers lie and scores mislead. For instance, to simply say that Singapore's table tennis men's team took the gold medal with a 3-0 win over Thailand yesterday suggests it was a matter-of-fact victory.


Congratulations to China Singapore for yet winning another Gold Medal at the SEA Games.

Like me, many Singaporeans are anti-foreign imports.

There is nothing like the pride when a local born, local trained athelete wins a medal. But a foreign import?

Our desperation for success in sports is laughing stock to the rest of the world.

I suspect they don't care since they are busy collecting their $10,000 Gold Medal.
