I refer to the news report “Recognition sought” (The Star, June 23). It was a touching story of a former SEAP Games javelin gold medallist who was barely making ends meet by selling vegetables in markets.
Incidentally, I personally know of an ex-Olympic 400m runner who sold vegetables for many years, also to earn enough money for his daily needs.
