Delegate from questioning financial transparency in OCA, claiming they always just rubber-stamping the reports. Hussein Al Mussalam quickly shut him down by saying OCA is doing good governance since it was formed

From this glitched stream of OCA, it seems like we will be having Asian Winter Games 2025 in Harbin

 

 

It's confirmed but I really think this event is unnecessary. Only East Asia and Kazakstan are competitive participants. For me, it's just another(or the best) opportunity for Korean male athletes to be exempt from compulsory military service.

It’s actually interesting to see a real election for a rather prominent position on the Olympic Movement.

It was a regional multi-sport games held under the auspices of Virtus, which is a para sport organization serving athletes with an intellectual impairment. Virtus is more about elite sport, as where the Special Olympics is more about inclusion (no matter ability level).
