Reflecting on Malaysia’s Journey at Tokyo Olympics 2020

The Tokyo Olympics 2020 has come and gone. It was a rather strange affair this time around, as stadiums and arenas were empty, due to the COVID-19 crisis. Nevertheless, Malaysia successfully brought home two medals -- a bronze in badminton and a silver in cycling. While we may have once again been unsuccessful in clinching the coveted gold medal, our athletes still gave us plenty to celebrate about and be inspired by. Sports journalist, Keeshaanan Sundaresan (Mat Stats), joins us to reflect on Malaysia’s journey at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
