In anticipation of the upcoming Asian Games scheduled to commence at the end of this month in Hangzhou, China, joining us this week is one of the emerging talents within the national delegation: 21-year-old swimming sensation Steve Khiew Hoe Yen who has rapidly established himself as a key figure in the swimming team, thanks to his record-breaking performances. Notably, he etched his name in history by securing Malaysia's inaugural gold medal in swimming at the 2021 Southeast Asian Games, all while holding several national records. As he gears up for his debut at the Asian Games, Steve is also harbouring his loftiest aspiration – to secure a spot in the Paris Olympics next year.
