And what's worse, it's sometimes half an hour ahead and sometimes half an hour behind. For eg, the JPN v HKG basketball match today starts at 4 pm indonesia time but is listed at 4.30 pm on the site. On the other hand, the COR v INA match starts at 6.30 pm but is listed at 6 pm !! Thankfully, wikipedia has the correct timings atleast so far It's normal now..

I think the official website tries to adjust the timing with each user's time zone . that's why they are making such a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, websites of MotoGP, World Superbikes and I believe European Athletics or IAAF for example always simply list both the local time and the user's time and it works perfectly fine. South Korea might have been mostly known for corruption in terms of unfair results and Koreans being heavily favoured, but at least they had the expertise to host an event in today's internet-age..

MHSN 3,221 Posted August 15, 2018 #134 Share Posted August 15, 2018 now we know why China registered in weightlifting https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1068823/chinas-weightlifters-hope-iwf-will-allow-them-to-compete-at-asian-games-despite-year-long-ban even if they clear China to participate there are still questions about their " whereabouts" as mentioned in the article. in weightlifting you can't just jump in and participate. they have to test you for few months prior to the competition. this will be ridiculous they let China to participate but knowing IWF that most probably will happen. this will affect our gold medal chances directly 85kg gold medal is 100% gone with Tian Tao. even though I doubt still anybody can touch our possible gold medals at 94 and +105. and there will be a hell of a competition for 105kg with Yang Zhe , Olympic champion Nurudinov, the other Uzbek guys and two Iranian weightlifters , including the current World Champion Hashemi.

Nurudinov didn't appear even once since Rio?
