On the fifth day of the World Junior Championships , although the Russians made a big attempt to gain the medals of the weight categories of Women’s 69kg and Men’s 85 kg , those were the Asians who grasped the most medals at last .

In the weight category of 69kg Junior Women , the competitions towards gaining the titles of the first to the third place of Snatch and Clean & Jerk and Total were very exciting and except one silver and one bronze that ZUBOVA Mariya from Russia achieved , the seven remained medals went to the Asian weightlifters . In Snatch KANG Yue from China by haltering the weight of 113kg became the first and the athletes from Kazakhstan and Thailand became the second and the third respectively . In Clean & Jerk SUWANNARATANA Wiriya from Thailand by lifting the weight of 135 and because of having less weight in comparison to her Russian rival got the gold medal but in Total , this 19 years-old Thai weightlifter gained silver medal .KANG Yue who had gained bronze medal in Clean & Jerk , achieved the gold medal in Total with 244kg .

In the weight category of the 85 Junior Men , the Russian athletes made a big attempt so as to gain the most valuable medals ; however , it was ROSTAMI Kianoush from I. R.

The fourth day of the World Junior Weightlifting Championships was the day of Russians’ glittering in the weight categories of 63kg ( Women ) & 77kg ( Men ).

What happened in the first three weight categories of the Men’s and Women’s weightlifting Championships being run in  the Penang , Malaysia , was a glittering beyond the forecasted for the Asian Weightlifting , and it can be said that the Asians were the absolute conquerors of the majority of the  competitions’ light weight categories  .
In the Women’s weight category of the 48 kg the athletes of China and Thailand owned all the gold and silver medals and of course the representatives of N. Korea , Kazakhstan , Japan , Indonesia , Chinese Taipei  and even India offered an acceptable demonstrations .
In the weight category of 53kg all the medals reached to the Asians and the weightlifters of China , N. Korea and Thailand didn’t let the other countries’ weightlifters share  the medals and  even the forth position of total movements  reached to the japan .
In the weight category of the 58kg , the athletes of China , N. Korea , Thailand and Philippine could gain medals . The considerable point was that in the table of total movements the first 5 positions were allocated to the Asians .
In the Men’s Class , the performances of the Asian representatives were admirable . In the  weight category of 56kg , the weightlifters of China ,I.R. Iran  Vietnam and N. Korea owned the nine medals and in the final ranking the first seven people of this category were merely from Asia that it was very considerable  in its own share .
In the weight category of 62kg , the medals of gold , silver and bronze allotted to the weightlifters from China , Turkmenistan, S. Korea , Indonesia and Japan . In the weight category of 69 kg , although the Albanian weightlifter gained one gold and two silver , the representatives of China and I.R. Iran obtained 5 colorful medals as well.
However , gaining 47 colorful medals in the 6 weight categories in the World Junior ( Men’s and Women’s )  Championships  and   registering a new record in the Women’s 58 kg category indicates that making background in the weightlifting sport in Asia has been considered as a serious subject and also shows its real position in Asia .
It’s very important to say that from the 47 gained medals , the Chinese 18 medals , the Thais 9 medals , the N. Koreans 6 medals , the Iranians 4 medals , the Vietnamese 3 medals , the Indonesians and Turkmens each ones 2 medals and the representatives of the Philippines , S. Korea Japan each ones 1 medals were shared and it indicates the weightlifting sport has been made progress in many different countries in Asia and its progress hasn’t been allotted to some special countries.

Last year , this series of the competitions was held in Amman , Jordan in which some clubs from Uzbekistan owned the most titles of the Championships in the two Categories of Junior and Senior ; however , the first position of the Senior category reached to a club from Saudi Arabia .

It's remarkable that two years ago , the Uzbeks were the host of the Asian Inter-Club Championships that did very well in handling the competitions .  So this year also , they have requested to hold the mentioned Championships that after being  approved  by the AWF Executive Board   Members , they officially  gain the privilege of hosting in Tashkent .

These competitions , in fact are   considered as the 17th cycle in the Women's  Class and the 37th cycle  in the Men's Class . Last year , these battles were held by hosting the Bulgarians in which 247 weightlifters compete together and the Chinese , as usual owned the most medals in total of Men's and Women's Classes . In that Championship , the Asian appeared very excellent and demonstrated their dignities to their rivals much more than before .

In relation to the World Junior Weightlifting Championships , it is said that , this event began in the Men's Class by the hosting of Marseille , France  in 1975 in which 142 weightlifters compete with together . However , the record of the most participants  relates to the competitions held in Belgrade by 217 lifters in 1987 . In 2007 that the competitions were held in Prague , the participated teams' number in the Men's Class was 49 that it was an interesting record. Now , in Penang we should wait and observe whether  these records will be broken or not .

In the Women's Class the World Junior Weightlifting Championships began in Warsaw , Poland by the presence of 75 female athletes . The year in which the most participants were present in the Women's Class  was1998 held in Sofia , Bulgaria by 104 weightlifters .

In the previous cycle , the Chinese except the weight category of +75 owned   the gold medals and the championship titles in the other weight categories.  In the Men's Class the titles of championships were allocated to the Chinese and Iranians in 3 weight categories . In fact it's expected , this year also , like the previous years , the World Junior Weightlifting Championships might be a site for demonstrating the pure talents of the Asians and also their glittering in the territory of Weightlifting .

The first cycle of these battles  was held in Chiang Mai , Thailand in May , 2009 that those competitions were also considered as the 2010 Youth Olympic Qualification. For this reason , in the competitions of the two years ago , we were the witnesses of attendances of 148 young weightlifters in the 7 weight categories of the Girls and 202 young weightlifters in the 8 weight categories of the Boys  .

This year's Youth World Championships will be held in two groups of A and B and the participants will compete together in Maria Angola Convention Center in order to own the colorful medals and valuable titles .Peru has provided suitable facilities to hold the competitions as well s possible . It's expected that the Asian Weightlifters  who gained gold , silver or bronze medals in the former Youth World Championships , also might  own the good titles in the two portions of Boys and Girls this year and improve the current records of this  age category –some records haven't been changed from 2004.

The 2011 Asian Senior Weightlifting Championships was held by hosting of Tongling , China during 9-18 April . This series of the battles in fact was considered as the 23rd of them in the Women’s category and 42nd of them in the Men’s category that occurred by the presence of the representatives of 13 countries in the Women’s category and 17 countries in the Men’s category .

The 2011 competitions were held by the absence of some popular women and men weightlifters of Asia and the world  ; however , the attempts of 33 women lifters and 54 men lifters caused to be broken the records of Asia for three times ; ZHOU Lulu the 23 years-old from China the weightlifter of +75 kg. of Women category in the absence of JANG Mi-ran from S. Korea took a huge step by haltering the weight of 141 in Snatch and improved the Asia record for one kilo .

In the Men’s category YANG Zhe the weightlifter of 105 kg. from China could registered the new  records of Asia in Junior by haltering the weight of 187kg. in Snatch and 403kg. in Total movements . Although , the Chinese as usual owned the majority of the vintage medals and got 35 gold ,6 silver and 2 bronze medals in the two categories of Men and Women . However , the hands of the other athletes of the Asian countries were not empty and in addition to the host country 11 other countries shared in gaining the medals .

In the Women’s portion beyond the Chinese , the performances  of Macao , DPR Korea , Chinese Taipei and even Hong-Kong were considerable and of course Japan , Kazakhstan and  India in the aspect of medal gaining , had good situations . In this portion ,  the   absence of Arab countries representatives were obviously clear.

In the Men’s portion , The Iranian and Kazakh did well and compete closely together to gain the second position in the   team scoring and in fact the Kazakh with a more weightlifter and obtaining 19 points stood on upper than Iran on the second winner place . Although DPR Korea appeared very well in this portion , the phenomenon of the battles was Syria that could attract the attention of the experts to itself .

As a whole , this year’s competitions displayed a few new figures as phenomenon and surely the competitions in the men’s portion were more sensitive and compressed than the women’s portion . Anyway , it’s expected the Arab countries’ presence would be strong in the further competitions of Asian Championships so as to add to the excitement of them and spread in all over the widest  continent of the world.

The election of this cycle has an essential difference with other former cycles because of the numbers of the candidates and now the most Asian countries hope to take the opportunity to achieve the management seats in a democratic atmosphere without any secret activities in back of the curtain.
The presence of some young and experienced figures by together proves that the intention to serve in Asian weightlifting has been made among  all classes and categories  and it is regarded as a privilege for the continent's organization.  On the other hand , the section of several experienced Asian managers in the IWF Elections two years ago ,  proved that owning experience and being success in handling the Asian affairs of weightlifting can  be a launching platform for those who has aimed the distant horizons of IWF . as the current IWF General secretary has grown from the heart of the Asian Weightlifting and finally achieved whatever was his worthiness .

This matter shows that the procedure offered by the AWF authorities and handlers was efficient and right that led to such conclusions.
