  2. Thank you, Ken. Next time, if you mean next World Championship SC, it will be in 2014. And, nobody knows, will Chamraen be selected or no, to represent Cambodia, at what distances he will be put to swim, will be put for 50 freestyle or no, will be 2nd distance selected according his best perfomance or no, as it happened already for 3 last WC incl. 1 LC, and will he be able to swim all distances availabe or it will be, like happened at this WC, when 2nd distance was canceled, or like in last SEA Games 2011, when 3 distances were canceled, without any reasons told why? And of course, it will depend, on the training process, during next two years. At this Championship, Chamraen jumped over his head, as after taking into account all factors, we were predicting that his best perfomance will be, if he swims around 26.20-26.50 sec. He managed to swim faster than 26 sec, made 25.85, and became the first swimmer participating in competition under Cambodian flag who swam 50 m distance faster than 26 sec, for both Short Course and Long Course...
