Taiwan athletes bagged another silver medal and three more bronzes at the East Asian Games in Hong Kong Saturday, moving into fifth place on the medals table one day before the games end. In the men's discus event, Taiwan's Wang Yao-hui finished in second place with a throw of 55.18 meters in his last try, while Chang Ming-huang won a bronze medal with a throw of 54.92 meters in his second attempt. The gold medal went to Japan's Shiro Kobayashi, who threw 55.98 meters. Wang expressed regret over the results, saying that they could have been very different had he not been faulted by the judge in the second throw, which he said would have been easily over 57 meters. 'I didn't grab the chance to win the gold medal when I could. I need to adjust my technique because when I throw, the angle of elevation tends to be too big,' he said. In finals of the 100-meter sprint, Taiwan's Yi Wei-chen finished third in a time of 10.49 seconds. China's Su Bingtian won the race in 10.33 seconds, while Japan's Shintaro Kimura clocked 10.39 seconds to take second place. In the women's 400-meter hurdles, Taiwan's Chang Ai-hua took a bronze medal, finishing in 1 minute 3.57 seconds, while Japan's Miyabi Tago and Kana Tsuru took gold and silver, respectively. China is leading the medals table with 91 golds and a total medal count of 189, followed by Japan with 51 golds and 163 total, South Korea with 36 golds and 124 total, and Hong Kong with 20 golds and 89 total.
