Last year, Vietnam also claimed gold medals at the prestigious contest, which is held annually by the Hwa Chong Academy in Singapore to generate greater interest in mathematics among pupils in primary schools and sharpening their problem-solving skills.
This year’s event drew around 260 contestants from 13 countries and territories in the Asia-Pacific region.
