event description

Canagasabai Kunalan – or Mr K, as he is better known to students and colleagues – is a legend in Singapore’s sporting history. With a total of 15 SEA Games and 5 Asian Games medals under his belt and a host of National Records to his name, he is an inspiration to his students, colleagues and fellow sportsmen.
But beyond his sporting success, Mr K faced battles in his personal life that few are aware of – from his struggle against racial taboos to marry a woman of another race to juggling the roles of teacher, son, husband, father, coach and sportsman.
