Olympics Uniting a Nation - Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia Advances to Badminton Final



Here are the scores of the badminton sets played by Lee Chong Wei yesterday:
15-21; 21-11; 22-20

So many posts online have shown great pride and rejoicing at the victory of Lee Chong Wei's close game with Lin Dan of China, which got him into the Rio Olympics 2016 badminton finals!

It is so lovely to see a whole nation unite, of every race and religion, all people, shouting and cheering on their fellow countrymen in the games. Malaysians from all over the country celebrated this wonderful advance to the next stage. 

For once, rather than divide in nations around the world for various reasons, the Olympic games is proving to be a factor of unity. Each country is coming together to compete, on the basis of merit, and nothing else. That is really where it is at. Perhaps this is the way forward - to unite as nations, and to go forward as one stronghold, holding up the fort for the country, for the nation, and for the people. No more divide, but a united nation, truly in the spirit of Malaysia's famous 1Malaysia. All countries can learn from this experience. May the best person win the medals! 

Looking forward to more from the Olympics... Great game, Lee Chong Wei - keep it up!
