2013 SEA Games
The 2013 SEA Games (Burmese: ၂၀၁၃ ခုနှစ် အရှေ့တောင် အာရှ အားကစား ပြိုင်ပွဲ, romanized: 2013 Hkunnit Ashetaung Asha Agaza Pyaingbwe, pronounced [n̥ɪʔtʰàʊɴ tɪʔsʰɛ̀ θóʊɴ ṵn̥ɪʔ ʔəʃḛtàʊɴ ʔàʃa̰ ʔáka̰sá pjàɪɴpwɛ́]), officially known as the 27th Southeast Asian Games, or the 27th SEA Games, and commonly known as Myanmar 2013 or Nay Pyi Taw 2013, were a Southeast Asian multi-sport event which took place in Naypyidaw, Myanmar from 11 to 22 December 2013. Around 4730 athletes from 11 participating nations competed at the games, which featured 460 events in 34 sports.
It was the third time for Myanmar in hosting the Southeast Asian Games. The country hosted the Games in 1961 and 1969 respectively in Yangon, then capital of the country. Singapore withdrew its hosting rights due to expected delays in the completion of its new national stadium, and it eventually hosted in 2015. Naypyidaw became the second city in Myanmar to host the Southeast Asian Games. The games were opened and closed by Nyan Tun, the Vice-president of Myanmar at the Wunna Theikdi stadium.
The final medal tally was led by Thailand, followed by host Myanmar and Vietnam. Several Games and national records were broken during the games. Though there were several controversies, including the inclusion of the traditional Burmese game of chinlone as a competitive sport, the Games were generally deemed successful with the rising standard of competition amongst the Southeast Asian nations.[citation needed]
Myanmar, Vietnam, Philippines and Thailand revealed their intentions to host the 2013 edition. However, since the latter three nations hosted the 2003, 2005 and 2007 editions, respectively, these countries were less favored to host this edition.
Myanmar held the longest interval between hosting the games, spanning a time of 44 years. The Southeast Asian Games Federation (SEAGF) Council met in Jakarta on 31 May 2010 unanimously agreed to award the Myanmar Olympic Committee the right to host the 27th edition of the games. The official website of the Olympic Council of Asia also approved the fact that Myanmar would host the 27th Southeast Asian Games in its news launched on 7 June 2010. ASEAN Football Federation (AFF)'s official website also announced that Myanmar would host the games.
The Myanmar SEA Games Organising Committee (MYASOC) was formed to oversee the staging of the event.
