Well actually the Thai athlete is from Southern Thailand which is the area with biggest Muslim population in Thailand. Same goes with Philippines... thepharoah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,179 Posted August 27, 2018 #1164 Share Posted August 27, 2018 That was... Painfully bad from the Indonesian pursuit team. Literally. Griff88 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted August 27, 2018 #1165 Share Posted August 27, 2018 They've taken him out with a strecher, but I think he should be alright. Fall didn't look bad at all for track cycling standards, so it could be just his lack of experience. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's just too used to in a ugly concrete velodrome But our men's cycling is just bad, unlike the women's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,148 Posted August 27, 2018 #1167 Share Posted August 27, 2018 well another "fantastic job" by refs in Karate. Poursheib got robbed big time in semifinal. of course we know the rules in AG. "when you win 2 gold medals, you can't win more" they never let Iran win more than 2 gold medals in men's karate. PS: Kuwait never did ANYTHING in international competition in Karate, but they always win gold in Asian Games. guess why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted August 27, 2018 #1168 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Korea beats everyone in men's pursuit by 13 seconds! Ridiculous domination from their teams. Did they steal equipment from GB or something? #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 6,770 Posted August 27, 2018 #1169 Share Posted August 27, 2018 5 ore fa, Olympian1010 ha scritto: I would imagine that the head covering is part of the uniform no, you can find videos of other competitions of Pencak Silat on YT and you can clearly see European women not covering their head/hair (did you know that the only gold medal of the 2017 world champs not going to South Eastern Asia went to Belgium -and to a girl with no Asian heritage at all? )... it's only a matter of culture of those Countries competing at the AG (some of them are definitely not Muslims, but probably also in their culture women must somehow cover themselves when going to public places)...

phelps 6,770 Posted August 27, 2018 #1170 Share Posted August 27, 2018 and INA has already got 5 of today's possible 8 gold medals in Pencak Silat... basically, in all the scheduled events, they are only missing 2 of the men's combat finals (not in today's program, though)...
