The Singapore flag was officially raised in the flag plaza of the Olympics Village's international zone on Tuesday afternoon.

Team Singapore was represented by sprinter Gary Yeo, hurdler Dipna Lim-Prasad, weightlifter Helena Wong and team officials that included chef de mission Jessie Phua.

Other athletes such as the table tennis team were kept away by their training schedules.

Singapore is fielding a 23-strong contingent at the London Games, contesting nine different sports.

The paddlers, who delivered a silver in the women's team event at the 2008 Beijing Games, have also set a two-medal target for themselves.
