JAKARTA - The Indonesian contingent has the opportunity to poke into the top three of the Cambodia 2023 SEA Games medal standings, Friday, May 12.

Currently, the Red and White Contingent is stuck in the fourth position they have been in since Wednesday, May 10, evening. Meanwhile, in the top three, there was a dynamic shift between Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand, which overtook each other.

The difference in gold medals that are not far apart between the top three countries has made the competition even fierce. Vietnam, which is at the top of the standings, collected 58 gold, while Cambodia has a difference of two gold from the Uncle Ho country team.

Thailand, which closed the top three, was recorded as having collected 54 gold as of Friday morning. The number of gold medals for the White Elephant Country contingent is 12 pieces adrift of Indonesia with 42 gold.

Even so, Indonesia still has the opportunity to get gold, especially since the main Red and White sport at the 2023 SEA Games has not yet been contested, including weightlifting and rowing.

Entering the seventh day of the 2023 SEA Games, Indonesia has the opportunity to win gold for bicycle racing in the men's mass start event which will be followed by seven national cyclists.

Wushu also has the potential to contribute gold in the men's Changquan number and even has the opportunity to marry gold on the men's and women's 52kg Sanda. Likewise with taekwondo in the men's individual freestyle number.

In the midst of his injured condition Lalu Muhammad Zohri will also appear in the men's 100 meters mainstay. The hope of gold is also in Odekta Elvina Naibaho who will compete in the women's 1,000 meters.

Additional gold for Indonesia is also expected to come from aquatics through today's finswimming.

The following is the standings for the 2023 SEA Games medal on Friday (12/5) at 09.00 WIB (there is no time difference with Cambodia) according to the official website of the Cambodia 2023 SEA Games committee (CAMSOC) games.cambodia2023.com, as quoted via Antara:
