PHNOM PENH-Indonesian Taelu Athletes Edgar Xavier Marvelo is targeting to make more thorough preparations ahead of the 2023 Asian Games multi-pronged sporting event which will be held in Hangzhou, China.

The closest ones are the Asian Games, but the names of the athletes who are leaving have not been notified because they still have to pass the review team from KOI and Kemenpora. So we'll just have to wait. I personally will always be ready if called and prepare myself as well as possible," said Edgar when met at Phnom Penh, Friday, May 12 evening.

In the final of the Vietnam SEA Games Changquan number, Edgar pocketed the highest score of 9.73 points and won gold. The silver medal was won by Jowen Lim Si Wei from Singapore with 9.67 points and Wong Weng Song from Malaysia won bronze with 9.66 points.

Gold at the Cambodian SEA Games is Edgar's third gold medal from the Southeast Asian country's multi-yearly event. Two golds were previously produced by Edgar at the 2019 SEA Games in the Philippines.

On the other hand, Chairman of the Review Team of the Indonesian Olympic Committee (NOC Indonesia) Jovinus Carolus Legawa or familiarly called Calvin gave his appreciation for the success of Edgar and his friends in the 2023 Cambodia SEA Games wushu sport.

Calvin, who also serves as Chairman of the Indonesian NOC Sports Development Commission, also asked Edgar and his friends to immediately prepare for the 2023 Asian Games.

"The Edgar movement was perfect when appearing in the Changquan number. Therefore, I asked Edgar to immediately prepare for the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games. Likewise, we will recommend other gold medal-winning athletes," said Calvin. Overall, the Indonesian wushu national team collected six gold, six silver, and two bronze medals as well as bringing Indonesia to become the overall champion in the wushu branch at the 2023 Cambodia SEA Games.
