00:00I couldn't do anything. I put my family at second place.
00:07My father is a bad person.
00:09My family told me to stop. That's it. Nothing more to achieve.
00:18We don't see this as a failure.
00:21But I believe Shah will continue our efforts.
00:25I believe in his team, along with Izzah
00:28and other players.
00:30It's unfortunate for me. I'm not sure why it ended like this.
00:35In terms of preparation, there's nothing else we can ask for.
00:39The support from MSN, ISN, KBS through RTG,
00:43the programs we have, everything has been completed.
00:46Some people say I'm too much pressure, too much risk.
00:50That's not true. I came with the spirit to win the gold for the country.
00:54Not for bronze, not for silver.
00:56I have the spirit to compete.
00:59But unfortunately, it happened during the war.
01:02I was speechless. I didn't know how to accept it.
01:06In fact, I still haven't fully accepted what happened to me.
01:11It's an end that I don't want.
01:14As a Muslim, we need to pray for justice for me.
01:18As you know, my career has come to an end.
01:21That's it for me. It's not about myself anymore.
01:23It's about the next generation.
01:24And our athletes need a great program
01:29to continue the next four years in Los Angeles.
01:32From me, whatever knowledge that I can transfer or share,
01:35God willing, I will try my best.
01:37Because my life is for SUKAN, for Malaysia.
01:42All over Malaysia, all parties have helped me a lot
01:46from the beginning of my career until now.
01:50And I don't know how to thank everyone.
01:52We can see clearly that SUKAN has united all of Malaysia.
01:56I am very touched by the messages and comments that I have received.
02:00All of them are very constructive and at least,
02:03they have relieved my feelings that I don't know how to express.
02:06I hope we can all, not only here, support our athletes,
02:09but also continue for the next four years.
02:11All Malaysians, not only verbally support us,
02:14but if possible, all of you can help SUKAN, God willing.
02:17Right now, I still can't fully absorb what happened.
02:21Because usually, if I compete, if I lose,
02:27when I can express my competition, my energy,
02:32I can accept it.
02:34But because of...
02:37I can't do anything.
02:38I really don't know how to say it.
02:42As elite athletes, we eat, sleep,
02:46we live for SUKAN, for the country.
02:50Even for me,
02:54I put my family second.
02:58My father really loves SUKAN.
03:00Even when I was on leave, I was still training because
03:03I was thinking about the Olympics.
03:08I don't know what to say in the future, but...
03:15A few days after the race, my team really hoped that I could reconsider
03:19to continue to the LAA.
03:21But I think for me, I just need time to sit down with the family,
03:24clean my mind, because what happened was something unusual for my career.
03:32But for me, they know that even if I stop,
03:35I will still be active with SUKAN.
03:38Mostly, I will still ride my bike.
03:40But I think the most important thing is that they need my help.
03:43Maybe if Shah needs a sparring partner to push him,
03:46or other young riders need a sparring partner,
03:49or anything, if the team needs me.
03:52But for now, I think I need time.
03:54Because the prep this time is very tough and challenging.
03:58Not physically.
04:00Physically, training hard is normal for me.
04:02I can accept that.
04:02But mentally, I have a young family.
04:04The kids are growing up, always keep asking me.
04:07If you remember what happened to me two years ago,
04:10when they found out about the heart attack,
04:12my family told me to stop.
04:14That's it.
04:15Nothing more to achieve.
04:17But I said, I promise.
04:18Give me one more Olympics.
04:20Last Olympics.
04:21You know, I promised to my mom, one of my kids.
04:24I just want to do it for my country, you know.
04:25But I'm also disappointed with what happened.
04:28But I need time now.
