1st Asia U16 Basketball Tournament for Men 第一届亚洲16岁以下男子篮球赛

1st Asia U16 Basketball Tournament for Men is now being held at Stadium Terbrau, Johor Bahru. Today is the 4th day for the tournament, however, I do not see any crowded in the stadium.

In the day time, the situation is even worse. Not more than 100 spectators was in the stadium. It is better during night time, but it also didn't over 500 pax, according to the statistic of media.

What is the main reason for the less support from JB citizens? Is the tournament not exciting enough? Or they have other activities? I remember that 13 years ago, there was a tournament at the same place, and my father brought me to watch games there. There was always full at that time but I wonder why having a similar game at the same venue can't attract the same support from the same group of people.

I do hope that all basketball fans can come out to support this tournament so that the organising committee gains the confident to organise higher level tournament in the future.

第一届亚洲16岁以下男子篮球赛目前在新山市政局体育馆举行。今天虽然是第4天的比赛，但是我却没有看见任何的人潮。

新山市民没有给予大力支持的原因是什么呢？是比赛不够精彩？还是他们有别的活动？我记得13年前，也有一项比赛在同个地点举行，当时我父亲还带我到哪里观赏比赛。那时候可说是场场爆满，而我不明白为什么类似的比赛不能吸引同样的观众来支持？

我希望所有新山的市民们能够踊跃出来支持这项赛会，让主办单位能更有信心在以后举行更高水平的比赛。
