Liek Hou’s golden mission accomplished, now celebration time with family

Hard-earned victory: Cheah Liek Hou says this year’s Chinese New Year is more meaningful after his golden outing at the world meet.

PETALING JAYA: Winning gold at the World Championship was all that mattered to para shuttler Cheah Liek Hou – so much so that Chinese New Year plans had to take a back seat.

But after returning from Bahrain with a remarkable 16 world titles total to his name, Liek Hou can now finally celebrate the festive season with his family.
