Can Malaysia Deliver? Asian Games 2026 Preview

 

After a long wait, the latest edition of the Asian Games is finally upon us, with Aichi-Nagoya welcoming athletes from across the continent to compete in the 20th edition of the Games. Malaysia will be sending 352 athletes, with a medal target of six gold, seven silver and 20 bronze — an ambitious but achievable target for our current squad. Ajitpal Singh, sports editor at the New Straits Times, joins us to break it all down, from the sports we're counting on for medals to the athletes we should keep an eye on. We also discuss some of the stories surrounding the Games as athletes begin to arrive.
