Sarah Chung - Malaysia's Greatest Female Player
Sarah Chung is perhaps the greatest Taekwondo player ever produced in the
country of Malaysia. From 1980 to 1996 she dominated the female division
of almost every major Taekwondo event held in Asia. Sarah made Malaysian
Taekwondo history by being the first Malaysian to best Korea for the Gold,
doing so at the 1992 10th Asian Taekwondo Championships. However two of
her proudest moments were also in 1992 when she was awarded the Ahli-
Mangku Negara designation by The Majesty King of Malaysia, as well as
the Bintang Kinabalu designation by the Head Ministry of Sabah State.

Inducted Into the Taekwondo Hall of Fame April 6th, 2007
