Hi! there, everyone,

I'm sure you know that the Asian Youth Games is running now in Singapore.

Those of you sailing out at PA site have seen the racing going on there.

For a long while now, we've not seen a result from windsurfing in Singapore.

On Monday, we may write a new chapter.

My daughter, Audrey Yong is in the running to take 3rd placing in her 1st all-Asia event.

Audrey has to sail safe and cover mainly on HKG, but also have to watch the others too.

Normally, last race down to the wire, lots of surprises may spring up. Hope it will be in Audrey's favour.
Main, stay calm and maintain her groove.

Best of luck Audrey !

"stay calm and maintain her groove."

Hi! there, Meng,

Thanks!! for your advice.  BTW, my wife, Lynda, met with you in Pattaya, thanks again for introducing yourself.

Until now, Audrey has not beaten either the HK or Thai surfers.

I'm very proud that she's fighting it out to come into contention for 3rd place.

We'll catch up when I go over to PA.

Regards

Hi! there, m3l,

You've been following the live-blog very closely, have you voted for Techno girl's coverage to-morrow?

We haven't seen the China girls until now, but I've told Audrey to do her best, before she joined Team Singapore at the Games Village.

I knew she has a chance against either Thailand or HK, as they've raced together, Siripon Kaewduang-Ngam (THA), has improved alot, since the Singapore Open, when the Thais just converted to the BIC-Techno, and lost to HK surfers.

HI Paul,

looks like HKG is desperate to win a medal at all costs.

i'm actually appalled that HKG is performing below par than usual in this AYG.
they are trying very hard to salvage the bronze as Gold and silver are already decided.

i'm not surprised that they will resort to protest room inorder to gain it.

luckily to make up for Audrey's unfortunate protest by HKG, the HKG lost another protest (as dismissed against KOR) in the boys Bictechno.

latest sms from the race site says Audrey has managed to secure the Bronze medal in the provisional overall result.
congrats Paul and your daughter.
