Thank GOD and thanks to the Olympic Council of Malaysia for nominating Mohd Azizulhasni Awang, a Malaysian cyclist to be the Malaysian flag bearer for the 2008 Olympics. The Malaysian National Cycling Federation and the Cycling fraternity are very honoured. This will definitely give vigour and enthusiasm for the cyclists to achieve more for our beloved country.
Below is what Arnaz had got to say for Azizul:
Azizul's rise has been as explosive as his riding style.
Within three years, he's turned from promising junior rider into one of the top riders in the world.
In 2005, he exploded onto the international scene by sweeping the three coveted sprint gold medals in the Asian Junior Championships in Kuala Lumpur. Azizul was simply in dominant form, taking the 200m sprint, keirin and 1km time trial gold medals ahead of more favoured Japanese and Korean riders.
One year later, he made his debut in the senior national team and immediately replaced Rizal Tisin as Asian keirin champion. This year, Azizul doubled that, by adding the 200m sprint gold medal to the keirin in the Asian Championships in Nara, Japan, making him the first Malaysian to take home the double. Rizal Tisin also showed how powerful Malaysia was in the sprints arena when he bagged the 1km time trial gold medal in the Asian Championships.
