Thai athlete Sasirawan Inthachot secured a gold medal and set a new record in the women's 200m T47 event at the 5th Asian Para Games in Japan.
On October 20, 2026, Thai athlete Sasirawan 'Aum' Inthachot delivered a stellar performance at the 5th Asian Para Games, currently being held in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. Competing in the women's 200-meter T47 class, Inthachot claimed the gold medal with a time of 25.23 seconds.
Her victory was particularly notable as she broke the Asian Para Games record twice during the competition—first during the qualifying round and again in the final. Maitree Kongruang, President of the Paralympic Committee of Thailand, publicly celebrated the achievement, noting that this marks the second gold medal for Thailand in the current games.
For residents and visitors interested in the Thai sporting scene, this performance highlights the growing competitiveness of Thai para-athletes on the international stage. The win also earned Inthachot a business-class flight back to Thailand as a reward for her record-breaking success. While the athlete’s performance has been confirmed, further updates regarding the final medal tally for the Thai delegation are expected as the games continue in Japan. This event serves as a point of national pride and underscores the dedication of Thailand's Paralympic team.
