Here in the Philippines, our official broadcast Partner, the National Broadcasting Network (NBN 4) had plugs of the event. Maybe you should watch out for that carefully.

Oh!! I have a question. ^^ The first guy was from Qatar, right? And then he passed it on to the guy who represented India? The last person's from China, but whose country did that woman (who turned into a shark) represent? :D Just curious.

[axxess0429]

Maybe she's from Thailand or from the Philippines. :D

[axxess0429]

Maybe, I don't know if she's from the Philippines, Thailand or maybe an Indian also just like the first one.

[JermaineFaith]

Nice. ^_^

[axxess0429]

Why did they put a Western dragon in this video? Shouldn't it have been a Chinese dragon seeing how this is the Asian Games?

The girl that jumps into the sea represents Thailand. You can see that weird looking shaped island is called Ko Tapu.

Try en-wikipedia-org/wiki/Ko_Tapu
