That story has partly come from our athletes who have really made us proud. I want to use this opportunity to sincerely thank them for the good work that they are doing for this country. I urge the Ministry of Sports and Youth Affairs to put in more money and focus in the Sports Department; as a country. That is one department that is taking us high up internationally."}
