PHNOM PENH, May 7 (The Straits Times/ANN): More than 60 years after Singapore made its debut at the 1959 South-east Asian Peninsular (Seap) Games in Bangkok, the Republic won its 1,000th gold medal at the 32nd SEA Games in Cambodia on Saturday.

It was a team effort that delivered the milestone goal for Team Singapore, as the women’s swimming 4x100m freestyle relay quartet of Quah Ting Wen, Nur Marina Chan, Quah Jing Wen and Amanda Lim touched the wall first at the Morodok Techo National Aquatics Centre.
