Seven gold medals were won in the sports of shooting, wushu, BMX cycling, weight lifting, rock climbing and dragon boating.
Interestingly, there are also records achieved by proud Indonesian athletes. For example, Rahmat Erwin Abdullah who set a world record in the Clean & Jerk event with a lift of 201 kg.
Not to mention Desak Made Rita Kusuma Dewi from rock climbing who broke the Asian Games record for women’s speed with 6.522 seconds.
