It is the courage that counts". In the last five days, we saw courage in the face of adversity, honour in defeat and faith in despair. Despite their inexperience and limited usage of the language, they demonstrated courage, determination and dignity against the odds. The LAWASIA Best Endeavour Prize is awarded to the team that overcame challenges, difficulties and obstacles to compete in this competition.
