Ranked third
at the 28th Southeast Asian Games with 73 gold awards, Vietnam has surpassed
the goal of 60 golds, with numerous youthful competitors now intending to
contend at the 2016 Summer Olympics Games.
Tran Duc
Phan, who drove the Vietnamese representative to the biennial multi-game Games
for the 11-country block in Singapore from June 5-16, said the nation's
investment has been fruitful. The achievement was an aftereffect of fitting interests
in competitors who will likewise contend at the 2016 Olympics and the 2018
Asian Games," Phan, who is additionally agent executive of the General
Department of Sports, was cited by the nearby daily paper Bong Da as saying.
Vietnam sent
392 competitors to contend in 28 of the aggregate of 36 games at the Games. It
completed with 73 gold, 53 silver and 60 bronze awards. Thailand drove the area
with 95 golds, trailed by host Singapore with 84 golds. As per Phan, Vietnamese
competitors have performed well in shooting, tumbling, swimming, fencing and
paddling.
Yet, what
awed me was sports, in which Vietnamese competitors won a record of 11 gold and
17 silver decorations. Nguyen Van Lai won a gold award in men's 5,000m running
rivalry and broke a SEA Games record set 22 years prior. The
28-year-old competitor from Thanh Hoa Province completed with 14m4s14, which
was 4 seconds quicker than the record by Malaysia's Ramachandran at the 1993
SEA Games. Yet, it was Nguyen Thi Huyen, a 19-year-old runner from Nam Dinh
Province, who made an amazement when sacking three gold decorations in ladies'
400m, 400m obstacle and 4x400m hand-off.
Eclipsed by
Quach Thi Lan who won a silver decoration at the 17th Asian Games in ladies'
400m, Huyen was not anticipated that would accomplish such noteworthy results.
She was likewise disposed of in a group sent for preparing in the US this year.
