First lady of the Olympics


By WHY NOT

Meeting a legend: Choong with Owens when he came to Malaysia.

As the Olympics wind to an end, it’s time for some nostalgia, and to remember the first Malaysian woman to take part in the Olympics and those Olympians who never made it there.

THE condo unit is a dedication to sports. On the shelf, there is a photo of the legendary Jesse Owens with a young girl, there are medals hanging on the wall and trophies on the cabinet. The coffee table is inlaid with sports pages.
