00:04The 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya, Japan officially kicked off today.
00:08But the competition hasn't officially started yet.
00:09Athletes and delegations from various countries were already struggling with accommodation and transportation issues.
00:13It's giving me a headache.
00:14Nagoya was hit by record-breaking torrential rain last week.
00:17The temporary container dormitories set up by the organizers were flooded.
00:21The delegation was ordered to evacuate in an emergency.
00:23The South Korean basketball players also complained after moving in.
00:26The bed board is too short.
00:28Embarrassing situations such as water leaks when washing hands.
00:30This prompted the vice president of the Korea Basketball Association to directly criticize
00:33This was the worst stay experience ever.
00:36And this is just the beginning of the nightmare of accommodations at this Asian Games.
00:41With the competition approaching
00:43Delegations from various countries have been arriving in Nagoya in recent days.
00:46Then came the peak of the reporting period.
00:49However, the on-site situation was disrupted because the contestant information in the conference system was incomplete.
00:53Unable to arrange transportation and accommodation.
00:56One of the famous gymnasts from the Chinese gymnastics team pointed out
00:59Due to a system malfunction by the Japanese organizing committee
01:02Unable to arrange shuttle bus
01:03The Chinese team was stranded at the airport for 6 hours.
01:06As a result, I didn't eat anything for a full 12 hours.
01:09Unexpectedly, we encountered bad weather that night.
01:12Unable to board the ship and check in
01:14In the end, I had no choice but to pay out of my own pocket to arrange another hotel stay.
01:17So the Chinese team wasn't the only one to have a similarly poor check-in experience.
01:21An Indian fighter also waited anxiously in the assembly area for 10 hours.
01:25hour
01:26Just boarded and checked in
01:27I never expected to encounter the awkward situation of multiple people assigning rooms to me halfway through my sleep.
01:31Because he was told he had two more roommates
01:34I have to share a room with him.
01:35Besides the accommodation issue, what else...
01:37Transportation connections are also rife with problems.
01:39Some Indian shooting athletes need to travel for an hour and a half every day.
01:43Only then can we reach the training ground.
01:45Even more shockingly, a football team was once taken to the wrong destination by a bus.
01:48It was sent to the baseball field.
01:50It delayed their competition schedule.
01:52We've been mentioning boarding and check-in just now.
01:55That's right
01:56This was the first time the organizers had used a large cruise ship.
01:59To serve as a floating athletes' village
02:01Although the ship has a swimming pool and entertainment facilities
02:04Full of vacation vibes
02:06However, the room's space was met with collective criticism from the players.
02:10A Hong Kong contestant unpacked and tested the product.
02:13The guest room the two shared was very cramped.
02:16Especially when the suitcase is fully opened
02:19There was almost no space to move around in the room.
02:22That, plus the ship rocking on the sea surface
02:25This also caused many athletes to feel dizzy and uncomfortable.
02:27Although the cruise ship is docked in the port
02:30However, it is still possible to be affected by wind, waves, and tides.
02:33Also, the influence of a tropical cyclone that may appear near Japan in the near future.
02:37The safety and stability of cruise ship accommodations have become a major concern.
02:41Now, after reading this, you might have a question.
02:43A prestigious large-scale international event
02:45Why isn't there a decent players' village?
02:47Originally, in response to the recent increase in construction prices
02:52This has already caused labor costs to skyrocket.
02:54Under these pressures
02:55The organizers made a bold decision early in the planning stage.
02:58They abandoned the idea of building a new traditional athletes' village.
03:02In order to implement environmental protection and save budget
03:04The organizers switched to using hotels
03:06cruise ship
03:07There were even makeshift wooden shipping containers.
03:09The arrangement of these components was used to accommodate tens of thousands of delegations from various countries.
03:13However
03:15The imagination is wonderful.
03:16Reality is much harsher.
03:17The original concept of organizing the competition in a simple way
03:19It seems to have evolved into the current public relations crisis with its constant turmoil.
