XI Asian Games



OCA lost its President, Sheikh Fahad Al-Sabah during the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait . This was the most shocking news surrounding XI Asiad. OCA headquarters were temporarily moved to U.K. where Mr. Muttaleb Ahmad was independently carrying out his duties as Director General. After the liberation of Kuwait in 1991 the OCA HQ was re-established. Beijing overcame these and other crisis to be remembered as one of the best Asiad in the history. Total of 27 disciplines including Canoeing, Kabaddi, Speak Takraw, Softball and Wushu were competed. As the host country, China demonstrated her pride and strength by winning nearly 60% of gold medals (183), securing her stand as the Asian super-power in sports.
