The #Tokyo2020 Olympics went on successfully despite the pandemic and while we’re still processing the fortnight full of amazing games, we’d also like to remind one another to stop passing hate comments to our athletes. 

It’s not easy doing what they do and seeing them apologise to the public just breaks our heart. 

We should instead be thanking them for their perseverance, for giving it their all and for putting us on the map by participating in all the various sports!

Here’s some of the moments that brought us to tears:

Goh Liu Ying - Badminton 

[from 2.00 minutes]

Farah Ann Abdul Hadi - Gymnastics 

[from 1.45 minutes]
 

Aaron Chia & Soh Wooi Yik - Badminton Men’s Double

[from 13.00 minutes]

Nur Dhabitah Sabri - Diving 

Lee Hup Wei - Athletics

Dato Azizulhasni Awang - Cyling

You really don’t have to apologise! 

We are so proud of all our athletes and we’re always rooting for you! Go #TeamMalaysia!
