Kok Leong gets pot of gold for his birthday

IT WAS a golden birthday celebration for Lim Kok Leong. He turned 27 in style by winning the men’s six-red snooker event last night.

Kok Leong turned the tables on the world amateur runner-up, Filipino Jefrey Roda, 5-3 in the final at Ha Dong Gymnasium to ensure Malaysia continued their proud tradition of never missing out on a medal each time snooker and billiards is held in the SEA Games programme.
