Our Team Singapore Olympians made us proud in Tokyo. Now, it’s our Paralympians’ turn to fly our flag high, as the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games kick off today.
Our Paralympians have sacrificed and worked hard to make it to this pinnacle event for sports. Not only have they trained relentlessly, but they have spent their lives overcoming peoples’ expectations of the differently-abled. Now, they will represent Singapore at the Paralympics. Some, like Nur Syahidah (Archery), who tells her story in the video below, have already proven themselves on the world stage. Others, like Steve Tee (Tandem Cycling), are making their Paralympics debut. Steve is also one of my residents in Ang Mo Kio GRC!
Whatever the results may be, I know you’ll all make us all proud. Let’s go, Team Singapore! 🇸🇬 – LHL
