This's my article about Helmy El Saeed the Egyptian cross country skier , hopefully it'll make some noise and he can participate under Egyptian flag

84 nations have qualified for PyeongChang 2018. I have not included the Cayman Islands as they won't compete and included Ecuador who will make their debut.    The following should qualify

Mark  said just now that he had bad experiences with wax stores and needs a team to travel with. I asked Manikala‘s  manager, he said he could help out...  This will be interesting!   Else t

Apparently he hasn't competed since 2014 season.

 

Maybe the taekwondo player can do something, he does have an athletic background at least.

It's possible, I hope. But taekwondo isn't really an endurance sport, if he can train up his technique and endurance he could do well. We'll see at the World Champs!

Looks like he will make his debut in Lahti. :d

 

 

I hope Eurosport broadcasts the qualifying races like last year! He'd probably be an early starter.

:PRK North Korea suddenly has a bunch of alpine and cross-country skiers registered on FIS (some of them competing already).

 

Looks like they really want to be in South Korea for some reason. :d

To be honest politics aside they are an ideal country to develop winter sports, good snowy conditions and good bulk of gymnasts and sportspeople for ice sports! I know they've recently opened the first ski resort in North Korea so I wouldn't be surprised if they try and develop it over time. They must want to make their presence felt in South Korea at the Olympics but coming in as one of the last finishers in Cross Country skiing or Alpine doesn't really do that. They'd do better trying to qualify their figure skating pair that won a medal at the Asian games who have a more realistic chance of a good placing

 Had a little look and there are few more chances for some of the countries here to qualify:

 

:COL Colombia in Alpine Skiing (Michael Poettoz has got multiple runs under 140 FIS poits and should be already qualified)

:MAS Malaysia in Alpine Skiing (Jeffrey Webb again has multiple runs under 140 FIS Points and should qualify for Malaysia)

Both now depend on whether the National Federation will agree to send them but I can't see why not.

:KOS has officially qualified.

 

73 nations are qualified right now.

 

The following should qualify (all have athletes meeting part of the standard/good enough to qualify):

:IND

:TLS

:PHI

:HKG

:THA

:MGL

:PRK

:DMA

The following have athletes just outside qualification and may qualify:

 

:MAD

:BAR

:JAM

:NEP

:PAR

:TTO

:ISV
