I won't even bother to wait for the remaining uniform set, starting today it will be "bashing-Indonesian-uniform-day"

1. Who were the most unexpected Qualifiers(Team/Individual) from your nation? Vidya Toyyiba (shooting) - basically I did not know anything about her and suddenly she qualified 2.Which athletes/teams ' not qualifying from your nation hurt you the most? Ketut Agus Aditya Putra (surfing) - he's so close to qualify... (he's now an alternate athlete, though) Doesn't guarantee they will qualify but the women's archery team defeat after that 4-0 lead against Mexico in OQT really hurts

Cate Campbell (swimming) and Patty Mills (basketball)

30 athletes

19

Meanwhile it sucks for me when there is an Asian Olympics... Basically I have to play cat-and-mouse with my boss and the supervisors for 2 weeks My Olympic watching history: Beijing 2008 - school vacation; enjoying the full broadcast London 2012 - basically up until midnight to the point my father pulled the plug of the TV Sochi 2014 - only the morning events Rio 2016 - college summer vacation; enjoying morning and night session Pyeongchang 2018 - still an intern, basically nothing to do so I can enjoy it quite a lot

named Lee Zii Jia (badminton) as their male flag bearer replacement

Meanwhile Khairul Anuar Mohamad will step down from the flag bearer role as he is focusing on mixed team competition https://www.bernama.com/en/sports/news.php?id=1977242 Also Carlos Yulo to reject the offer from his NOC, with officials claiming the flags are too heavy (I know they wanted to keep him fit for the 1st day of gymnastics competition, but hey at least say something better lah )

Fabrizio Zanotti (Golf) and Veronica Cepede (Tennis) Agnis Čavars (Basketball - 3x3) https://sportacentrs.com/tokija_2021/05072021-latvijas_karogu_tokijas_os_atklasanas_cer

Oui

@Vektorthe NZ player rejected the badminton quota, thus making Gergely Krausz getting the quota instead

Apparently there is one replacement surfer for Indonesia will be brought to Tokyo too.

also confirmed it 12 athletes contingent https://download.rtl.lu/2021/07/02/bee3dfaaef0cfa82adcae8b3d14373a9.pdf

will have 28 after confirming extra universality quotas in athletics (+1) and swimming (+2) https://www.antaranews.com/berita/2238690/indonesia-kirim-28-atlet-ke-olimpiade-tokyo

The damned media group from 2016 is rumoured to get the rights for Indonesia again, looks like I have to pay for a decent VPN this time
