THE Indonesian trio stepped up and put on a class show, exciting the judges in the team kata final. Then came the Malaysian trio of Emmanuel Leong, Thomson Hoe and Ivan Oh Theng Wei. When they were done, the Indonesians were well-forgotten and even the fervent Indonesian crowd were clapping at their performance.

There was no doubt in anybody’s mind as the Malaysian trio were awarded the gold, Malaysia’s fourth in karate.
