Asian Games organisers are
poised to switch the
quadrennial event from 2018 to
2019, to avoid clashing with
the Commonwealth Games in the
future.
The general secretary
of the Olympic Council of
Malaysia, Sieh Kok Chi, told
the Star newspaper that the
decision had been taken by the
Olympic Council of Asia.
He said the council had decided
that the Asian Games should
not be held in the same year
as the Commonwealth Games
because it did not benefit the
athletes.
