00:00This year's Asia Sepak Takraw trophy stole the attention of the world.

00:04Sukarno, when it comes to the participation of the great power of Thailand,

00:07is still hesitant to participate in the competition.

00:11This competition is scheduled to take place next May

00:13and the national team is expected to undergo intensive training

00:16every day until the day of the competition.

00:19If this situation really happens, it will open up a great opportunity

00:22for other teams to compete for the championship

00:24that was previously almost impossible to win due to the domination of Thailand.

00:28The national team started their first training session after resting for a week

00:32and the head coach of the national team is very optimistic

00:35about Malaysia's chances this time.

00:41For us, the national team, we will continue to focus on preparing for the Asian Cup

00:46even without the presence of the Thai team.

00:49However, I believe the Thai team will take part in the first edition of the Asian Cup.

00:54And we are focused on preparing for the Asian Cup

00:58for the doubles and the quadruple sculls.

01:02A total of 15 players from 21 players have applied,

01:06while the rest of the players are still waiting for the release of their employers.

01:11And we believe that by next week, all the players will be available

01:15for the preparation for the 2025 program.

01:19Experienced Takraw players,

01:21Farhan Adam also shared his feelings after the first training session.

01:25Although without Thailand, the competition is expected to be tight

01:28with teams such as South Korea and Indonesia being the main challengers.

01:32However, for Farhan, Thailand still needs to be there for this reason.

01:39The presence of Thailand is not an easy task for us as players.

01:46Of course, we have to fight against Thailand.

01:49There are many other countries that we need to fight against.

01:53But for me, I hope the Thai team can win this competition

01:59so that it will be a challenge for us.

02:02Because we know that the Thai team is a strong team.

02:07So we want to beat the Thai team.

02:12For me, I need the Thai team to be in the Asian Cup this time.

02:17If there is no Thailand, is this an opportunity to determine

02:20the rise of Malaysia in the international arena?

02:23Let's wait and see.

02:28And for the Takraw fans, mark your calendars.

02:32Takraw fans, the Asian Cup will arrive on 9-18 May

02:37at Titiwangsa Kuala Lumpur.

02:41There will be a competition between teams.
