Malaysian para-athlete Wong Kar Gee has achieved a historic feat by clinching the gold medal in the Men's Long Jump T12 event at the ASEAN Para Games in Thailand. Not only did he secure the nation's 55th gold medal of the games, but he also set a brand-new Games record with a spectacular leap. His performance has been hailed as one of the highlights of the tournament.

Wong, who has consistently been a top performer for Malaysia, expressed his gratitude to his coaching team and the National Sports Council for their unwavering support. His record-breaking jump has placed him among the elite para-athletes in the region and has significantly boosted Malaysia's standing in the overall medal tally.

The success of athletes like Wong Kar Gee is part of a broader trend of Malaysian para-sports excellence. The Ministry of Youth and Sports has recently increased incentives for medal winners, recognizing the hard work and international prestige these athletes bring to the country. Wong’s record is expected to stand for several years, inspiring a new generation of para-athletes.
