The opening ceremony of the South East Asia Games in Kuala Lumpur took place on Saturday 19th August in front of almost 90,000 spectators. WGA was engaged to design the catenary (cable network) system that was used to ‘fly’ an athlete from the centre of the field and then 20m above floor level to light the cauldron. The cables spanned nearly a quarter of a kilometre across the stadium!
