🇲🇾 FLYING THE JALUR GEMILANG AT THE ASIAN GAMES
By Dr. Amarjeet Singh @ AJ
When we speak about Malaysians at the Asian Games, our attention naturally turns to athletes, coaches, victories and medals.
But Malaysia is also represented by highly respected technical officials whose knowledge, professionalism and integrity earn them appointments at the highest levels of Asian sport.
One such Malaysian is Daljit Singh, appointed by the Asian Hockey Federation as Assistant Technical Delegate for the hockey competition at the 20th Asian Games – Aichi-Nagoya 2026, Japan.
This is not simply another overseas appointment.
THIS IS MALAYSIA ON THE INTERNATIONAL STAGE. 🇲🇾
Daljit’s journey spans almost two decades of technical officiating across major competitions in Malaysia and internationally.
He has served at the Asian Games, Commonwealth Games, SEA Games, Asia Cup, Asian Games Qualifiers, Nations Cup, Sultan Azlan Shah Cup and Sultan of Johor Cup, progressing through responsibilities as Judge, Technical Officer and Technical Delegate.
He has also developed from official to educator, sharing his experience with the next generation of hockey officials.
That is what makes this journey powerful.
You learn.
You serve.
You gain experience.
You lead.
Then you develop others.
International appointments are earned through years of performance, discipline, knowledge and, above all, trust.
When Daljit walks into the Asian Games hockey competition, he does not walk there only as an individual.
HE CARRIES THE JALUR GEMILANG WITH HIM.
His achievement should also remind young Malaysians that representing your country is not limited to becoming an athlete.
Malaysia needs players, coaches, umpires, technical officials, educators, administrators, scientists and sporting leaders capable of performing internationally.
Congratulations, Daljit Singh.
May this appointment inspire another generation of Malaysians to aim beyond our borders.
Different roles. Different journeys. One flag. 🇲🇾
The feeling of Malaysia on my chest is one thing the flag flies high because of each Malaysian is gretest feeling we have as Malaysians.
*MAKE MALAYSIA PROUD.*
