The Singaporeans had earlier won the race on Saturday (May 14) evening with a time of 3:17.19 ahead of Malaysia and Vietnam. But official results later disqualified Singapore and Malaysia.

Because they also don't know why SG team kenna DQed.

Sounds like the coach knows.

"I think it's based out of a technicality. It's very tough to actually make a protest of the result as well. Even though we're trying to find a reason and we wanted to make sure that this was not a issue of the technical error," he said.

So which technicality is it specifically? They only have to ask.

Even if its a BS reason, let the readers judge for themselves instead of publishing an incomplete story.

And we are paying 180m a year for such useless reporting

 

[tauntme]

Really lousy reporting ..

Means what? Cannot explain why disqualified in proper black and white?
I thought all these competitions everytime got such decision always very transparent de, within a few minutes everyone knows why and can point to which rule disqualified them

[Ashton]

Jin satki, DQ first and second place so that host country can win.
Sounds legit.

Then stupid media outlets like this accept the non-explanation.

Can mobilize RSAF?

 

[blackestvoid]

technicality on nsf allowed to participate?

 

[ultrasad]

SG was 4 sec plus faster then Vietnam and MY 1 sec plus. Viet lost by a big margin.

It is possible we may have made a mistake and MY won the gold but ironically both us and our brothers to the north both made the same error

 

[starmerck]

Only

Write so much, but didn't say why disqualified. Waste my time.

160 reports true news hokay

 

[Iamdone]

[Bam25th]

Hahaha lucky they in NS already. Imagine granting deferment for such standards….

 

[Tuckie]

For two countries to be disqualified, that’s some serious stuff

 

[Hiling care]

Write so much rubbish but never say the reason.

''I don't want to put it in a bad way, but there have been a lot of problems with what's been happening technically on the ground here. We work with whatever the circumstance is and we work with it.''

honestly speaking. i watch this event live, during the 1st takeover, i do notice malaysia 2nd swimming jump too early ( malaysia leading at 1st turnover).
Singapore error seem to be schooling jumping too early into the pool.

that how i feel when i watch it live. so i aint surprise, when i saw this news.
The way i see schooling swim 100m freestyle, he look finished and past his best! he is done! this could be his last sea games anyway.

 

[KYZT2021]
