began on November 21st, women's football on November 23rd, sailing on November 26th, and tennis on
November 26th.
The first gold medal of the games was awarded to Singapore on November 25th v/hen their water polo team
came out undefeated during the round-robin tournament round. The Philippine team took the silver medal in that
event, and Malaysia brought home the bronze.
The Games were also considered a valuable opportunity for athletes to gain competition experience and
preparation for the upcoming Asian Games and Olympic Games. It was purposely created to strengthen
friendship, solidarity and understanding among neighboring countries in the region.
This was the third SEA Games to be hosted by the Philippines. The last two times the Philippines hosted the
games were in 1981, and again in 1991.
