Jirapong Meenapra Clocks 10.61 100m, Ng Chin Hui 47.92 400m - 7th SEA Youth Singapore 2012

Thais sprinter Jirapong Meenapra claimed gold medal in the men's 100m during the 7th Southeast Asian Youth Athletics Championships 2012 in Singapore after clocking a season best time of 10.61s (0.0).

The 19-year-old whose personal best is 10.45s competed in U-21 (new / additional category in SEA Youth) has beaten Indonesia's Sapwaturrahman (10.72s) and another Thais Kritsada Namsuwan (10.74s) in silver and bronze medal positions respectively. 

Zaidatul Husna Zulkifli,19, made a success for Malaysia after winning the women's 100m in a time of 12.14s (-0.4). Silver and Bronze medals went to Thais Chorlanda Kirdbut (12.31s) and Supawan Thipat (12.44s).

Cambodian Hem Bunting Renews National Record 2:23:29 at Paris Marathon

Cambodia's Hem Bunting has made a significant effort in his first Marathon outing of the year after finishing in top 50 (42nd) at the 36th edition of Paris Marathon (15.04.2012) with a fastest time he ever run in his life 2:23:29. The time also improved on his previous national record 2:25:20 set during 2009 SEA Games in Vientiane where he won bronze medal. Not only that, his official intermediate time at half marathon shows 1:09:04, which is a new national record as well.

The race was won by Stanley Kipleting Biwott of Kenya in a time of 2:05:12, followed by Ethopians Raji Assefa (2:06:24) and Sisay Jisa (2:06:27). 

The 26-year-old who represented his country at 2007 World championship in athletics won silver medal at 2007 SEA Games at Nakhon Ratchasima, and then bronze medal at the next edition but surprisingly was not in the 2011 SEA Games team although remain unbeaten in Cambodia and has recorded the fastest time at the year.

Bunting's outstanding performance in Paris would certainly gain him an "auto slot" for the Olympic Games, that when it counts the fairness and appropriateness in the selection of athlete in a major event, and of course this apply when there are no other athletes in Cambodia that achieve the required standards of the Olympics.

For a record, his time is the fastest in Southeast Asia so far this year, and even much better than the winning time of 2011 SEA Games (2:27:45).
