MHSN 3,212 Posted April 22, 2022 #53 Share Posted April 22, 2022 This is very disappointing to cancel such a big event this close to the competition. specially when things are going back to normal in most countries postponing it to the next year is also a bad idea because of the Olympic qualifiers in most sports next year. I still hope it doesn't happen. @Vic Liu I asked you about this couple times before sorry but now I have a valid reason to ask again. what's our chance ?

I still think the postponement is very unlikely. No major Chinese media or official report the possible postponement though I also see the news from some tabloid or self media. I hope the committee clarify it as soon as possible. MHSN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic Liu 1,591 Posted May 6, 2022 #56 Share Posted May 6, 2022 It's official now. The Asian Olympic Council announced on the 6th that the 19th Asian Games, originally scheduled to be held in Hangzhou, China, from September 10 to 25, 2022, would be postponed.

Mkbw50 381 Posted May 6, 2022 #58 Share Posted May 6, 2022 This is quite sad I wonder what other events they will come for in China. Nanjing 2023? As now we come across the world To share these Games of old Let all the flags of every land In brotherhood unfold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff88 1,735 Posted May 6, 2022 #59 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Might as well announce another postponement for the Asian Youth Games too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,212 Posted May 6, 2022 #60 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Really really disappointing, having the games in 2023 will conflict with lots of Olympic qualifiers. I hope OCA seriously looks for another host. you can't trust China with hosting things anymore even though it's probably not possible to organize such a huge event in less than a year.
