Yau Ka Wai marshaled the defence efficiently allowing little space for whatever Vietnam might have hoped.
Scores
Hong Kong 78 (Koon Ho Kin 24, Tsin Yuen Fun 17, Yau Ka Wai 11) bt Vietnam 59 (Nguyen Thi Ngoc Ha 20, Ngyuen Thi Le Van 15, Trat Thi Nguyet Nga 10). (Quarterwise: 18-11, 42-28, 58-43, 78-59).
Singapore rally to down Lanka
Sri Lanka seemed to have got the measure of Singapore with the dimunitive B Fernando and the hard working D Thalagala sinking baskets in tandem. But Singapore staged a remarkable rally in the early phases of the third quarter that took the match away from the Lankan grips.

Singapore 70 (Zhou Lei 24, Lee Jee Jing 16, Poon Shuwen 15) bt Sri Lanka 59 (B Fernando 25, D Thalagala 12, G Silva 10). (Quarterwise: 5-16, 28-34, 51-44).
