What a pity for Irawan.. He had 2 chances to lead. Clean n jerk

vs - hope there's another upset

Longova! Lovely (And Indonesian watchers in the stream agree )

I've never experienced a thrilling fencing match like this! Now I know another sport to stick with haha Perrier vs Ma Feel sorry to Perrier...

got its first gold medal, also 1st medal to the birth place of the Olympics

well Indonesia has got http://vidio.com but need a VPN for Indonesian IP and only a few events in 4 live canals.. (check the live section)

Silver for in the 1st official day!

Most of African countries always so amazing with their traditional outfits

Thanks guys So we have 3 people in traditional outfits: The girl (Yessy Yospautra) is wearing Lampung traditional outfit, the middle one in Papuan outfit, and the left one... dunno (maybe it's modified). And the whole Indonesian netizens are talking about how athletes from other countries are taking photos with Yessy

Lol ! It's between Lenchu or Karma though

The ceremony is certainly not as big as London or even Beijing, but still a festival The Parade of Nations was somehow in slower pace, maybe because of the music. Love the cauldron, just hoping it is a bit bigger The only problem was the censorship in Indonesian TV (Giselle Bundchen got blocked by with a white square and the ceremony is cut after the hoisting of the Olympic flag, fearing the butts of Samba dancers )

I knew that, during History lessons at school we were taught about the referendum.. Australian and Portuguese reaction etc, etc.. And actually most Timorese people are generally friendly to Indonesians, and I knew a Timorese customer from my father's shop who decorated his motorcycle extensively with flag of Timor Leste. (This should be in the off-topic )

Another big catch

Just like me Well since this is not Wikipedia, let's have fun in finding them I know the IOC will release the list before/after the ceremony later, and don't worry because I'll try finding and verifying the sources for flag bearers which we got from FB/emails

Personally I think there are some better candidates, but just let them choose the flag bearer... Sometimes there are countries which won't let their top athletes to carry the flag, ordering them to focus in getting the medals. Some others don't really care and want to make sure their best athlete appear in TV even if he/she is competing tomorrow in the morning . It depends on the country (and the officials). Talking about criteria in choosing the flag bearer, I think China has the best one: "must be a tall and handsome man" Btw, welcome to Totallympics

Yes. About 50.. I'm just curious how we'll be able to get the flag bearers from some "dark hole of information" area like for example

Yep it's Turkmenistan >> Building 18 + IOC + Refugee Team >> Building 15 >> Building 28 >>Building 17 >> Building 24

Yeah.. It's him, different romanization I think it's not official, I've just read a few articles that confirms he's just candidate.
