To me winning just to get fame and a gold trophy means nothing.We should uphold the true spirit of Olympic just like what Mr.Kunalan said.He also said that Sports kept him strong, everyone can use their own strengths to keep them confident.
It would be much easier to do things in life if we remember the Olympic values of Excellence, Respect and Friendship.
I think Mr Kunalan must have worked hard in his studies as well as in his sports.
I do not think I can be like him, I am not so hardworking, but if I try maybe I can be.By revising my work and have self-confidence in myself to win many many awards like Mr. K.
We all can learn a thing or two from Mr. K, we can be more hardworking as ever and maybe think of him as a goal in life. Friendship, Respect and Excellence is very IMPORTANT !

He respects others by not cheating in the games ,he shows friendship by not being competitors when they are out of the match and he shows excellence by not giving up despite the difficulties faced
I think that I can be like him if I am willing to work hard.I will try to revise my work after I come back home.Yes, I think we can because it will lead us to success.
We will be able to learn more values and practise them to develop our character.This will improve our personality and lead us to a wonderful life.

To me winning without any efforts is just like not working. Mr C Kunalan had ran for many years and of course with his efforts and also lots and lots of trainings and pratices before the olympic games commence. There are 3 values of YOG and they are friendship,respect and of course excellence.Friendship is congratulate people who have won or console them when they have lost.Respect is to play matches without cheating.Excellence is to play the games wth cofindence,pride and passion.We can learn lots and lots of things from Mr C Kunalan. We are actually very good and we canget everything done by putting in our very best efforts.In the end,friendship,respect and excellence is super important and do your best in everything!

I think that the essential thing is not to have won, but to have fought well. Mr C Kunalan trains hard for the YOG and upholds the three olympic values of YOG. They are respect,excellence and friendship. Mr K.strives for excellence. He is resilient by not giving up in the face of challenges. He does not give up when he is exhausted and is willing to do his best during the competition. He shows integrity as he did not take drugs to run faster. He also maintains harmony and shows care and concern for his opponents.
I think I can be like Mr C Kunalan in school by not giving up when I face challenges,showing integrity by standing up for what is right and showing care and concern for my schoolmates.
If we uphold friendship, excellence and respect, we may win medals like Mr K and have values to develop into a good character.

I think that winning is not the best but to do our best. Mr C Kunalan trained hard for YOG. The Olympic Value is excellence, friendship and respect. I think he display the all the Olympic value. He is excellence is not because he won but is because he does his best. He also display friendship too as he befriend others competitor and of course, respect. He respects his competitor by showing integrity because he did not cheat.

I think I can also be like Mr C Kunalan in school.
Excellence- I do my best in my school examination.
Friendship- I befriend everyone although there are from different races.
Respect- I respect my teacher, I greet them.
And of course, I think I can follow the Olympic Values in school.

These values are important and should be with you forever.

To me winning is not everything because when you only think of winning you will not be able to enjoy the sport that you are playing.I think Mr C Kunala shows respect to other by not cheating because if anyone cheats in the Olympic games,it would be unfair to the other competitors as they trained hard for it.I think that when Mr C Kunalan was a little boy, he would not be too proud and boost to others when winning in a game or anything.Not being too proud will make us a better person.Most IMPORTANT,respect,Friendship and Excellence are very important in not only in sports and games but also in our daily lives.

Linghui said...

Linghui says ... ...
In the games,the most important part is the procedure.The end is not important.Even if you won the gold medal by cheating,it is not important but an embarassment to your country.The values of sportsmanship are excellence,respect,and friendship. Making friends with the players from foreign countries-shows friendship,doing your best in the games-shows excellence and not cheating shows respect.

After all, we should display the values in every game nevertheless competition,or just afriendly match ... ...

Mr C Kunalan practise the Olympic Values in his life by:
-Not cheating during the game.(Respect)
-Congratulating those who have won and console those who have lost.(Friendship)
- not giving up and tried his best.(Excellence)
See, he is so kindhearted and honest!
Well, I think I can be like Mr C Kunalan IF I work hard and practise the three values! I know it is very hard to do it, but I really liked sports very much! It helps me to be more relaxed and I can forget anything to realease my stress!
I can see that Mr C Kunalan worked very Very VERY hard to get all these trophies. The trophy is nothing, it is the attitude that is the most important. Well, some of you may look down on yourself and led a miserable life, but if you start to practise the three values now, you may become a successful person like Mr C Kunalan which can make Singapore proud. So, start practising the three IMPORTANT values now and believe in yourself that you can do it!

Mr C. Kunalan displays excellence where he strives for excellence. I think if we are willing to learn and work hard, we will be able to be like Mr C. Kunalan. If I were to choose, I would study everyday but of course, not 24/7. I think the benefits are that we reap what we sow and we will get good results for the hard work that we have put in. My teacher, Mr Asraf told us that a good result consists of 99% intelligence and 1% hard work.

I think winning is not the most important thing during the olympic games. Instead we should uphold the true spirit of olympic and we should also be friendly to the people. We should never give up when we play the game and we should always give them a handshake eventhough we lose.

I can have new friends to hang out with and maybe when I need help, they will be the first to give a helping hand to me. I can help them in their problems and be friends and respect people even if they are not nice to me.

He showed the values excellence as he tried his best in achieving the result that he wanted.I think that I can be like him as I tried my best during the exams even if the question was difficult, I respect everybody in my school and I made friends from other races. I could achieve all these result by studying hard before the exams,play with my friends from other races during recess and greet everybody when I see them. All the people in my school would be happy and we will live in harmony.

I think I cannot be like Mr Kunalan on school as I give up easily and I am lazy, but if I try to be more hardworking. I might show the 3 Olympic values( Respect,Friendship,Excellent) in school.
We can learn about to be respectful,to have more confidence and to never give up!

I think that the three values,friendship,exellence and respect are important in our daily lives.I believe that we can show the three values in daily life by: Friendship:We can make friends,and treat them nicely as they will treat you nicely too!
Exellence: We strive for exellence,and achieve our goals and targets.
Respect:We can greet our teachers and other guests in the school,and we also respect our family members and our friends.
Mr C Kunalan has shown these three values and he pratices these values and he won a trophy.
