SEA Game 30: Curtain falls, SEA Games flag goes to Vietnam
Thursday, December 12,2019
AsemconnectVietnam - The 30th Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games 30) in the Philippines ended with a spectacular music and light feast-inspired closing ceremony, and the official flag handover to Vietnam – the host of the 2021 event.
A drone show then turned the inky black sky into a stunning screen showcasing the different sports contested at the Games. The captivating showcase then culminated in the display of the Games theme: We Win As One.
The organising board presented individual awards to SEA Games’ best male and female athletes, Singapore’s Quah Zheng Wen and Vietnam’s Nguyen Thi Anh Vien. Both swimmers won six gold and two silver medals.
