KUALA LUMPUR: Mohd Aftar Rosli has switched events in athletics three times in the last seven years. Now, the 400m hurdler hopes he has finally found the event in which he can excel.

The 19-year-old Kedahan started his career in long jump when he was 12 but with little success. Two years later, he switched to 110m hurdles.
