ASEAN Para Games End with Thailand Topping Medal Table
(MENAFN) The 13th Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Para Games concluded Monday evening in northeastern Thailand's Nakhon Ratchasima province with a ceremonial closing event.
Thailand, leveraging home-field advantage and dominant showings in core competitions, captured the medal standings with 175 golds. Indonesia claimed second position with 135 golds, while Malaysia secured third place with 64 golds.
At a pre-closing media briefing, ASEAN Para Sports Federation president Osoth Bhavilai described the Games as a landmark edition that set new benchmarks for scale and competitiveness.
These games marked not only the successful return of the ASEAN Para Games to Thailand after 18 years, but also a strong reaffirmation of the resilience, growth, and maturity of parasports in the ASEAN region, Bhavilai said.
