Yesterday evening, Raffles City was loudly filled with screaming voices and dressed in red with supporters and well-wishers there to welcome home Team Singapore and to express a special ovation for the women's Table Tennis Team which brought back a silver medal after a 48-year drought.

Weightlifter Tan Howe Liang, the silver medal winner during the Rome Olympics, was there to welcome them. So too were the ministers and officials of Singapore's Olympic Council.

I also joined in the celebration. :)

Great to see other athletes are there too besides the Tables Tennis team. Good show from all of them! They deserve a warm round of applause from their fellow Singaporean.
