Jakarta has had less than the normal amount of time to prepare for the Games. It was selected only four years ago after Vietnam, the original host, pulled out due to financial setbacks. This allowed for only four years of preparation, instead of the usual six to seven years.
Although Jakarta had to organize the event in a short time, on a tight budget, the capital city has proved that it can host a multi-sport international event involving 45 countries and regions.
It's the second time for Jakarta to host the Asiad, which had its fourth edition in the Indonesian capital in 1962.
