Former Malaysian squash champion Choong Wai Li has a cabinet full of trophies from the five years she played for her country, but if her son were to inherit her sporting talents he would not be able to represent the nation.
That is because Malaysia is one of 25 countries that do not give mothers and fathers equal rights to pass their nationality to their children.
Choong's son Michael has his father's Irish nationality and is considered a foreign national in Malaysia, the country they call home.
