Local sports !

I think the SEA Games should remove all kind local sports such as Muay, Pencak Silat, Petanque, Finswimming, Shuttlecok and Karatedo (except for Sepak Takraw and Wushu because they are officially in Asian Games since 1990)

But local sport can play in Sea Games for show or example only.
When EVERY asian countries can play them, that's time to put local sport into Sea games.

Actually, I don't want to see all of them in Sea Games because they're not professional.

To become officially In Asian Game or Olypic Game it should be start from region my friend How can Wushu and Sepak Takraw become officila in Asian Game if at the began every body said that were Thai's and China local sport? Take it easy my friend.

Finswiming is not a local sport. It not show local character.
It isn't included in the Asiangames or the Olympic. Very small number of people in SEA play this sport.
Why it is included in this Seagames????

I think because of the host country want her communist friend to win the competition.
Is this correct?
Please give me a reason?

If you don't want to play, then just don't compete, it's so simple.

It's a game, you can choose to play or not. They're the host. Just wait until your country is the host then you can do what you want. Sitting here complaining cant solve anything.

Actually I think if you really tke the medals or official sports seriously, the local sports will be your advantages.
When others countries focus on locals spots, they waste their human power and money to invest in it, so your athletes have better chance in their profession, don't you think ?

When you're aiming for something bigger, why complain about silly things ?

When we see a silly things on the Seagames, we should complain on it, This will make the Seagames more fair, more professional ,more improved in the future.

Is this right?

It's a rule of the game you know, mate. I think everyone, except Thai, have no problem accepting it, as they will add their local sports when they organize SEA games

KinKin · Veteran Member

In fact before Sea Game I heard that Thai Olypic council accepted that they may be number 2 in total medal but should get the gold medal for football and untill 2day they lost all in football that why they start cry on other things.

I agree with you, It's rule of the game that the host(previous hosts also) can choose the sports to make some countries have obviously advantage/disadvantage. But I don't think this is a good criteria.

Is this right?

The reason was given before, but i think you did not read it;

-first, for a sport to be popular, it need to be played locally first. how do you want EVERY nations to play a sport before putting it in SEA games, it's impossible. You need to put it in SEA games for SOME to play before EVERY can play. It is the way for it to be more popular in the world, too.

-second, local sports show local character. It's the way to understand each other more, too

-third, every nations have chance to promote their sports, Thai, Viet, Laos, Sing.... all have same chance

-last but not least, playing local sports in SEA games does not have much impact with the developping of Olympics sports, they still have lots of chance to develop. We cannot blame local sport for low-standard of Olympics sports. It depends on many other reasons.

local sports make a sport that can boast of our country.

Hey hey
Please stay in the point of topic :(
It's look like you're maybe angry that why you put irrelevant thing to complain me (Thailand) in this topic, right ?

Actually, we don't care about medal tally in Seagames, we keep an eye on Asian Game & Olympic Games only.

In Sea Games, this year Thailand isn't strong like in the past, and many asean countries develop their ability in International sports. Yes I accept them like Vietnam and Singapore, but what about the successful in for local sport ???

Local sports?hmm..gud as promotion 2 d country.entertaining yet intererting.no prob 4 me.cheers Lao

I agree with MANZUST about the judges. There can be as many local sports as you want. I don't really mind. If Thai can't win the medal team because of these local sports it's fine by me.
I just want all the judges in all sports that participate in SEA games are to be professional.
Every time and everywhere SEA games 's host will take the advantage of being the host.
This time in Laos is one of the fairest SEA game in history. But next time can we count on the host and all the judges to be like this time in Laos?
When sports like gymnastic return I think they will end up the same as before,cheating by the referees and judges.
I don't want lacal sports to be cancel in SEA game, I just want all this cheating and bad judging to be gone in SEA game.
I think that's more important than the local sports.

You want every nations to take interested in our SEA game, make it PURE and you'll have it.
