HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — Vietnam has withdrawn as the host of the 2019 Asian Games, saying it lacked funds and the country's reputation could be at risk if things don't go smoothly. Listening to people's voices is a precious thing for the people to trust in the head of the government, and once there's a trust of the people all difficulties will be overcome. The sports ministry had budgeted $150 million for the event, but economists said the bill could be several times higher, and in line with spending levels for this year's Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea, which could reportedly top $1 billion. The Vietnamese government's initial decision to host the games had generated domestic opposition in the media and on blogs, as the country was still struggling to emerge from the global financial crisis.
