Asian Youth Games 2009

The Asian Youth Games,
or AYG in short,
has officially started in Singapore
on 29 June!

Welcome to the athletes from 45 countries in Asia,
to compete against Asia's best,
and to bond over their passion.

My photographer Jonathan and i
attended the AYG Opening Ceremony
at Singapore Indoor Stadium last Monday
to experience for ourselves,
the vibrancy and energy of the participating youths -
be it performers or athletes,
and enjoy the performances.

When the Singapore team paraded out,
this Malay woman was enthusiastically waving the flag
cheering for them.



It was really cool,
to see foreign journalists typing away
on their laptops,
ready to send in their article
for the next day's papers,



as well as photographers
sweat in concentration
holding their cameras
shooting away the best moments of the event.
