Mardy and Marsio
Where they're from: Jakarta , Indonesia
How they're related: They're brothers.
The 411: Born two years apart, Mardy and Marsio spent a lot of time together when they were young and even lived together in the US for a while. Now that they're adults, have jobs and their own families, the two haven't been spending as much time together. They believe joining the race will be a good chance to reconnect.
Their strengths: "Our biggest strength is our brain, and our perseverance," said Marsio.
Their fears: Although they are concerned that their physical state is one of their weaknesses, the two have similar motivations. "We want to win The Amazing Race Asia for our children and our wives."
Their strategy: Let other teams underestimate them. They may not look athletic but these boys are active too, even going diving together. "Hopefully our brotherhood will keep us strong and keep us going through the Race," Marsio said. "We can cover for each other," Mardy agreed.
Why you should root for them: According to a scientific study, siblings whose names begin with the same letter are 70 percent more likely to succeed than those whose names don't. Kidding.
