VietNamNet Bridge – Another unfair case occurred yesterday, November 21, for Vietnam at the ongoing Southeast Asian Games 2011 in Indonesia.
The victim is aerobic artist Vu Ba Dong. Dong won the highest mark but referees announced the  Thai artist - Phairach Thottchancha – as the gold medalist.

Dong’s coach Vu Thi Tuyet Oanh said that marks of athletes were made public on electric boards during the competition.

“Dong performed firstly, earning 20.250 points while Thailand’s Phairach Thottchancha scored only 19.8 points. His mark was detected by two points due to some mistakes. The referees changed the results,” said Oanh.

The Vietnamese aerobic team did not accept the results and it has lodged a complaint to referees.

Similarly, Vietnamese aerobic pair Ba Dong and Thu Ha nearly lost their gold medal at the SEA Games 24 if the Vietnamese team did not complain.
At the ongoing SEA Games, some Vietnamese athletes were unfairly treated. On November 17, Vietnamese judo artists were unfairly judged in the finale.

As the current champion couple, Nguyen Ngoc Son and Nguyen Thanh Tai performed very well but they did not win any medal. All medals were presented to athletes of Indonesia, Laos and Thailand whose performances had a lot of errors.

Similarly, Le Ngoc Van Anh and Nguyen Hoang Cam Ha performed perfectly in comparison with other rivals but they did not receive any medal. Vietnamese female Judo artists busted into tears.
