Chief Executive Ho Iat Seng delivered a speech on the weekend on video at the launch ceremony for the 15th National Games, the 12th National Games for People with Disabilities, and the 9th Special Olympics.
In his remarks, Ho emphasized the government’s commitment to ensuring the smooth and successful hosting of these anticipated national sports events. As the country heads into athletic competition season, the National Games serve as a platform to showcase China’s comprehensive strength and promote sports exchanges across regions.
Under the guidance of the State Administration of Sport, Macau has collaborated closely with Guangdong Province and Hong Kong to advance various preparatory tasks through coordinated liaison mechanisms. Ho expressed gratitude for the support and assistance provided by the national sports authority, as well as the provincial and Hong Kong governments.
Macau will host four competition events for the 15th National Games, including table tennis, three-person basketball, five-person basketball (men under 18), and volleyball (women’s adult group). The region will also host karate mass events, as well as two badminton competitions for the Paralympic Special Olympics.
Macau’s Organizing Committee for the Games is currently undertaking an extended arrangement of preparatory work, spanning infrastructure, competition logistics, reception arrangements, and transportation. Ho expressed confidence that these meticulous efforts will culminate in a successful and memorable sports event.
In closing, the Chief Executive offered his sincere hope that the 15th National Games, the 12th National Games for People with Disabilities, and the 9th Special Olympics would each triumph.
