PETALING JAYA: Azizulhasni Awang has presented Malaysia with a pleasant Chinese New Year gift – all the way from chilly Paris.

The newly-crowned Asian champion became the pride of Asia once again as he barged ahead of 2009 world champion Maximilian Levy of Germany at the finish line of the men’s keirin final to claim bronze in the Track World Championships at the Velodrome de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines.
