Thailand criticizes organisation of Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games
Summary

Thailand has publicly expressed dissatisfaction with the organisation of the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games in Japan, describing it as similar to a chaotic game of 'musical chairs'. Athletes have faced issues including inadequate accommodation, late transport services, and food complaints. The National Olympic Committee of Thailand reported a shortage of housing for athletes, with some required to make their own arrangements and pay for food. Efforts to improve transportation have been acknowledged by the Games organisers, though delays have been a concern since the event's start. The Asian Games features over 17,000 athletes and officials and has experienced logistical challenges in its first week.
