At the age of 30, G.Shanti made stunning return in the 1997 Jakarta SEA Games by winning the 100m Gold, ending a 16-year dry spell for Malaysian women.
She also won the Gold in the 200m event.Her victories in Jakarta made her the fastest woman in South-East Asia and it was a fitting tribute that she was honoured as Sportswoman of the Year in 1998.
The best part was, she came back in 1997 after giving birth to her 1st child and became super mum on the track.
