Apart from the new events, eight previous games records were beaten at the competition, as well as 29 national records. Many champions from the 1999 edition of the tournament retained their titles: Arumugam Munusamy (men's 1500 metres) and Supriati Sutono (women's 5000 metres) won their third straight SEA Games titles, Juthaporn Krasaeyan had her third consecutive women's shot put and discus throw double, Loo Kum Zee won his fourth men's high jump gold, James Wong Tuck Yim took a fifth title in the men's discus and Nur Herman Majid extended his unbeaten run in the 110 metres hurdles to six titles.
Thailand had a sweep of the relays and several Thai athletes won multiple gold medals.

Wassana Winatho won the women's 400 metres flat and hurdles, while Nattaporn Nomkanha was the men's gold medallist in the long jump and triple jump. Outside of Thailand, three other athletes topped the individual podium twice. The Philippines' Eduardo Buenavista won the 5000 m and 3000 metres steeplechase (knocking fifteen seconds off the games record in the latter). Pham Dinh Khanh Doan did a women's middle-distance double for Vietnam, while Indonesia's Supriyati Sutono improved the standards for the 5000 m and 10,000 metres, setting meet records in both.
