00:00So let's start with the answer that has already been answered.
00:12The Malaysian KOM athletic union announced the sensation runner Mohd Azim Fahmi to fill the universal slot to accompany the Paris Olympics team.
00:21The official assessment indirectly undermines the dream of the track queen, Shireen Samson Vallaboy,
00:26when the single slot runner is not on her side.
00:29Let's continue with the report from Carl Nunez.
00:3423 days to the opening of the Paris Olympics team, the national squad now has 26 athletes in total
00:42with Azim Fahmi's nomination, which is given the mandate to participate in the Blue Ribbon event.
00:48Azim Fahmi's choice is based on a record of 100m in the 100m event throughout this season.
00:55If compared to Shireen Samson Vallaboy.
00:58It is also understood that one of the main factors for the KOM to choose Azim Fahmi
01:03is the strict criteria of this universal slot that only allows athletes to participate in the 100m, 800m and marathon events.
01:13For the record, this is the second time Azim Fahmi has been selected by the KOM to participate in the main event.
01:19After Azim Fahmi was also selected by the KOM, he handed over the wildcard slot to the World Championships in Budapest, Hungary in August last year.
01:27Realizing that there was a rumor that the KOM was more inclined to let Azim Fahmi choose the universal slot,
01:36the KOM president was called to revoke the claim.
01:40With this, the KOM has discussed yesterday and has decided to give this 100m wildcard to Muhammad Azim Fahmi.
01:50And of course, whoever we choose, we hope for a positive effect for the future of Cemerlang.
02:00Whoever is not chosen, whatever it is, it will be an effort to achieve more Cemerlang.
02:08This is not all, because we know that when we are chosen as a wildcard,
02:13we know that our achievements will certainly not affect us.
02:20But this is their chance to join the Olympics.
02:24But they all have a big chance.
02:26The best decision is based on the offer of the wildcard itself.
02:30Because if we don't choose the 100m, we will face problems.
02:36Because these two wildcards are not qualified.
02:39This is an offer to countries that have failed to send qualified athletes.
02:47The 800m and the marathon are open.
02:53But of course, athletes who are not trained for the 800m,
02:57they train for the 800m quite hard.
03:00So we follow the offer.
03:02Finally, Azim Fahmi hopes that the selection of the universal slot athlete
03:08will reach the optimum level in the city of Paris
03:12and will break his national record in the Ribemberry event.
