The Malaysian team, who will led by team manager Wan Mohd Kamaluddin, will arrive in Holland on 5th September.
It is Malaysia’s fifth participation in these world championships, having participated in 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2019. Classified as an FEI CH-M-YJ-E 120, Malaysia had a 4th place team finish in 2013, and a 5th place team finish in 2019.
While Malaysia is hoping for a podium finish this time, Kamaluddin said, “Our Malaysian team has had good results in the past, but this time we face strong competition from Netherlands, France and UAE. There is no target for an individual result. The aim is for all riders to complete the ride.
