Timor-Leste trends on Twitter as SEA Games community boosts its medal bid
"Timor-Leste" is trending on Philippine Twitter, with more than 3,600 tweets as of writing.
The reason? As of 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Timor-Leste has yet to win a medal in the ongoing Southeast Asian Games and the entire community is cheering for them in their bid for at least one medal.

The tweets are very heart-warming, to say the least. They all bear with them the message of the Games: We really do win as one.
