Sports journalist Graig Nunis pointed out that it was rather odd for the university to give Malaysia such recommendations as even in Tokyo Olympics in 2020, Japan itself has set gold medals target of 30, which they only won 27.

In the latest episode of Sinar Daily’s Sports Matter Podcast, seasoned sports journalists, Arnaz M. Khairul and Graig Nunis, weighed in and offered a contrasting take over Malaysia’s 32 overall medal tally which was dyed in a celebratory hue by government officials, including Minister Hannah Yeoh.

More attention will be given towards the search for talented para-athletes to ensure Malaysia's continued success on the international stage, said Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh. - BERNAMA

The Paralympic Council of Malaysia (PCM) and National Sports Council (NSC) have reiterated a similar stance in stating that the national contingent are targeting 35 medals, regardless of the colour, for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Para Games in China. - BERNAMA
