Total SGC$: 14,295.43 | Asian Youth Games: Only 7% of tickets sold
SINGAPORE: Only seven per cent of the 52,000 Asian Youth Games tickets released to the public have been snapped up, the Singapore Sports Council revealed on Monday.
But Singapore Asian Youth Games Organising Committee spokesman Alvin Hang said that sales figures are rising steadily, with some events selling out.
"There were about 2,500 fans at the football match between Singapore and Iran and tickets for the final days of the bowling event are almost sold out," said Mr Hang.
The football tournament kicked off on July 22, and Singapore played Iran last Saturday. Bowling starts on Wednesday and ends on Monday.
"We would like to reassure everyone that stringent measures are in place to ensure all participants and spectators can enjoy the Games safely. This includes temperature screenings at all venues for spectators," Mr Hang added.
There are so far no new Influenza A (H1N1) cases among the teams, and the Ministry of Health has informed Saygoc that the one remaining case - a footballer from Hong Kong - has recovered and was discharged from SGH on Monday.
Meanwhile, at least two schools have stepped up efforts to get their students to support the Games.
East Spring Secondary School was one of the first to buy up its full allotment of tickets from the Ministry of Education, and principal Ong Teck Hui said students will be allowed to take leave from classes to attend Games events that they have tickets for.
Greendale Secondary School principal Mark Minjoot said at least 66 of their students have bought tickets for sailing, football and athletics, and the school is looking into getting more for other events.
"It will be a good experience especially for our school teams to see the kind of strategies employed by other countries," he said.

Beside the economical situation, H1N1 scenario & its only a regional youth game, there is little interest.

Either because of H1N1 or no time to watch.

If it really attractive, i think SARS also people go buy tickets.
If those famous boy band they come and hold concert in Singapore, you think those fans will give a damn abt all this illness going on.

To be honest, I don't find the Asian youth Olympic games that exciting at all, the Olympics is another event since it covers a larger scale but since we are the first country to host it I have no idea what to expect from it.
