'Failing, chaotic, musical chairs': Teams slam Asian Games organisers

Multiple national teams have strongly criticized the organizers of the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games in Japan, describing the event's administration as "failing" and "chaotic." Thailand has emerged as the latest country to voice sharp discontent, explicitly likening the logistical management to a game of "musical chairs."

Athletes and delegations have pointed to a range of operational failures during the Games. Specific grievances include cramped accommodation facilities, significant delays upon arrival at airports, and lengthy, hours-long waits required just to board a cruise ship serving as part of the event's infrastructure.
