THE Singapore Government has given its full backing to the Singapore National Olympic Council (SNOC) to submit a bid to host the 2015 South-east Asia Games.
Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean, who is also SNOC president, made the announcement at SCAPE Sky Park yesterday, during a flag-presentation ceremony to Indonesia-bound athletes for both the SEA Games in Palembang and Jakarta, and the Asean Para Games in Solo.
"The Games helps to forge regional solidarity, and bring great value and pride to the people and the athletes," he said.
"We want to play host to our South-east Asian neighbours by organising the Games."
The SNOC will make its bid submission to the SEA Games Federation at its upcoming meeting in Jakarta.
