Before the 31st SEA Games, during the past time, VOC has also called for socialization sources to have a hot bonus fund for the Vietnamese delegation. However, so far, no one has accepted the offer.

A sports industry leader shared: ‘Due to the influence of Covid-19 but many businesses have not done well, so they are not interested in supporting Vietnamese delegation. The hot bonus plan for the delegation has not been developed yet. We are still calling. Hopefully during the 31st SEA Games, the Vietnamese delegation will receive contributions from businesses. VOCs are funded each year by International Olympic Committee (IOC) level, but IOC recommends it for training and training athletes. The state does not have money to reward hot Vietnamese athletes compete at the big tournamentincluding the SEA Games”.
