PETALING JAYA: Malaysian sporting history has been made with Mohd Ridzuan Mohd Puzi and Ziyad Zolkefli striking gold in record-breaking fashion at the Rio Paralympics.

Until their feats on Sunday morning, Malaysia has only won a total of five silvers and two bronzes since the country began competing in the Paralympics in 1972 in Munich. Then, in the space of one hour, the NegaraKu was played twice.
