    :INA winning gold in Unversiade (plus the presence of the president at the OC) increased interest in this event. Friends asked me for streams of this event.

     

    But one downside: Some people freaking out when they found out Gaudeamus Igitur is played instead of the Indonesian national anthem :p (One even alleged it was Chinese anthem - how great is Sinophobia in this country)

    Imagine how much the organisers save by playing just that one song at the medal ceremonies. They don’t have to keep the recordings of over 100 national anthems on hand. Plus they won’t make the mistake of playing the wrong anthem. :d

    FISU has total participation around 6,500 athletes for these Games. It would be the smallest attendance since 1999. However, it is worth contextualizing that number with the double postponement, shaky trust (internationally) in the domestic health situation, and general global financial situation. 
     

    Edit: I believe this may also be the lowest number of nations in attendance since 1997.

    It could also be because of the crowded sporting calendar. Fencing and swimming are scheduled just after the start of their world championships. Athletics takes place just two weeks before the start of the worlds in Budapest.

    I hate my country, again the state TV cut to “competitive video gaming”

     

    Btw, they played Indonesian local folksong Ayo Mama during the Indonesian team march

    At least you still have the Universiade on television. The only sports on the TV in Manila is mostly men’s basketball and women’s volleyball :(

    I swear the OCA said we are cutting back after 2018, but attracts 1,200 more athletes lol

     

    It also confirms :PRK will compete

    The OCA doesn’t know the meaning of cutting back. What can you expect from the only Games that plans for a 32 team soccer tournament for men.

    At least it is a ‘working’ results system. They only forget to publish pdf-results or a complete resultbook. GSSE 2023 worked well during the event, but no results can be downloaded.

     

    One should think that the results are part of the legacy of the Games at last years this information seems to getting worse or challeging to find (for example: South East Asian Games 2023, Pan American Junior Games 20121, ALBA Games 2023)

    The last time there was a decent results system at the Southeast Asian Games was in 2015. I’ll consider it a miracle if we get it when Thailand hosts the Games in 2025.
