Development course

The predecessor of the Asian Games was the Far East Games. In 1911, sponsored by the Philippine Sports Association, it was held every two years, alternately in Manila, Philippines, Shanghai, China and Osaka.

After the Second World War, many Asian countries got rid of colonial rule, gained independence and liberation, and established new social systems.

With the healing of the war trauma, people's life is becoming more and more stable, and sports are becoming more and more active. The Olympic Games, which was interrupted for 12 years by the war, resumed again.

under this historical background, people in Asian sports circles have a desire to form a unified Asian sports leading body to promote the development of Asian sports.
