On May 6, 2023, the Southeast Asia (SEA) Games officially began, and Malaysia’s athletes have already made their mark in the competition by winning several medals. Wan Athirah Hidayah Ahmad Fuzli, a member of the Malaysian delegation, won a bronze medal in the women’s obstacle race, becoming the first Malaysian medalist of the Games. Meanwhile, William Yoong Wei Theng clocked 28.80s to edge Cambodia’s Ol Saohengk at the Chroy Changvar Convention Centre—clinching the men’s 100m bronze medal.

Shahmalarani A/P Chandran also brought home the nation’s first gold in the SEA Games 2023 Karate – Women’s Kumite below 50kg event. This was a significant achievement, as she defeated Junna Tsukii Villanueva from the Philippines, who is the champion for 2022 World Games. The country’s second gold medal was won by Prem Kumar A/L Selvam in the Karate – Men’s Kumite below 55kg event. He gained victory over Thailand’s Chanphet Setthaphong by a close score.
