A dream of training at high intensity level in Germany has become a reality for national table tennis player Miguel Wong, after a benevolent group of members of the corporate community pooled resources to ensure he secured the required funds for the trip.
Ready Mix Concrete, who played a significant role, King’s Jewellery World, Beacon Café, Payless Variety Store, Power Producers & Distributors Inc., DemBake along with parents and members of the Titans Table Tennis Club all contributed to help the 18-year-old attend a three-month training camp in Berlin, Germany which commenced September 1.
It is understood the sum needed was $700,000, and the Guyana Table Tennis Association assisted Wong to acquire the visa.
