This follows a recent controversy regarding the official attire initially unveiled for the Malaysian contingent to wear at the Olympics
The initial outfits drew criticism from Malaysians for their 'low-effort design', 'cheap quality', and being 'outdated'.
Many felt it was an embarrassing representation of the nation at such a large-scale global event, especially compared to other countries.
Following the backlash, the Olympic Council of Malaysia apologised and unveiled a new, "fiercer" design.
