00:00Let's open with the star of the show today, Tamasha Sukan Paralympic Paris, who has officially started the opening ceremony, which shows a difference far from the usual.
00:20In addition to holding the ceremony outside the stadium, this edition also emphasizes the presentation of aesthetic art.
00:26However, despite the busy schedule, the national athletics team continues to prepare the outstanding players for the actual competition with a new face as the prospect of the gold medalist in Paris.
00:37Let's listen to the latest developments with reporter Karl Nunez.
00:40Quoting words from the national athletics school, the city of Paris is not a holiday destination. On the contrary, it is the best place to achieve success in the highest level in the world.
00:51The national athletics school has often presented the gold medalist since the Rio 2016 edition.
00:58And 8 years ago, the status remained as the best source for the country to continue the tradition of the gold medalist.
01:09However, do you know the two athletes who should be given attention in this Paris edition?
01:15Jonathan Wongkagi and Ama Ayman Nur Azmi.
01:19Let's start talking about Wongkagi who came to Paris with a clearer picture than the previous edition in Tokyo.
01:27He has a fairly ideal height in the long jump event.
01:33Wongkagi was made a prospect to dominate the podium after making a record that matched the winner of the gangster side in the previous edition in Tokyo.
01:43At the same time, he colored the sports squad in the city of Paris.
01:57Yeah, at first there's a trauma. So it took me a while to recover from my injury and then get back my long jump technique.
02:05So over the years, I think right now I got back my jumping ability.
02:11So hopefully I can perform with my right technique. I'm sure there's no problem for this competition.
02:17Expectation Paris, of course, I want to do my best, achieve my personal best.
02:21So hopefully I get a medal for this Paralympic.
02:25My coach has always been training me speed. So he said my speed is not a problem.
02:29So the only little thing that I need to tweak is my takeoff, my technique.
02:34More confident than last time. So more relaxed, I think.
02:38That's why I can achieve my technique much better this time.
02:43But I still do visualization the night before and also before competition.
02:48So less stress, just enjoy the game and perform my best.
02:52Meanwhile, the gold aspiration of 400m T20 runner Amar Aiman is increasing
02:59when his performance is reaching a perfect level.
03:02Amar, the Asian record holder and the 3rd best runner in the world at this time,
03:07promises to break the dominance of a runner who is much more experienced than him.
03:14At that time in Paris Open, I felt like a different fielder.
03:20But in the Olympics, the fielder is more active.
03:28So I just pray that I can achieve my personal best.
03:35So that I can get the 3rd medal, 47.4.
03:40If I get the 3rd medal, I feel like it's not enough.
03:47My target is to get the gold medal.
03:51So I will do my best in the Olympics for Malaysia.
03:56For me, if I get 46, it won't be difficult.
04:01I just need more training and discipline.
04:11According to the coach, if Allah wants me to get the gold medal, I will get it.
04:18If Allah wants me to get the gold medal, I will get it.
04:24Who knows, maybe I will get the gold medal.
