Don't Worry Be Happy

Extremely proud of fellow Malaysian, Lee Chung Wei because he managed to bag the silver medal for badminton. It is an achievement for the nation and i guess it will be the only medal that Malaysia will be able to get this Olympics. So, congrats for making the country proud. At least, we did see the Malaysian flag rise up alongside the two China flags during the prize-giving ceremony.
No doubt that Lin Dan is, shall I say, immortal, on the badminton court. He also had the advantage of playing at homeground where majority of the people were obviously rooting for him.
As forChung Wei, he has trained so hard and he managed to reach the finals which is a gigantic step for Malaysia. He should have held his head up high and waved to the crowd when the silver medal was placed around his neck. People are hating on him because he won silver, what about those athletes who did not even qualify?

Lin Dan wins the gold,China has won a gazillion gold medals.

Chung Wei wins the silver, Malaysia has that ONLY medal for this year.

Question : which player made a greater impact to their country? I personally say the one who got second place ;)
