KUALA LUMPUR: Without injured Olympian Nurul Syafiqah Hashim, it will be tough for the women archers to shine at the Myanmar SEA Games from Dec 13-17 at Naypyitaw.

But the 19-year-old Syafiqah, who represented the country at the 2012 London Olympic Games, has encouraged her team-mates not to lose heart and use the SEA Games as a platform to rise to stardom – just like her.
