18Th Asian Games Success Story
18th Asian Games Runs Faultless Secure Network The 2018 Asian Games, held in Jakarta and Palembang, enjoy secure and faultless network performance. Customer: The 18th Asian Games Industry: Sports/Entertainment Location: Jakarta, Indonesia and Palembang, South Sumatera The Challenge – Security On A Large Scale The 18th Asian Games, also known as Jakarta–Palembang 2018, was a multi-sport event held from 18 August to 2 September 2018 in Indonesia. The Asian Games are one of the world’s largest sporting events, held every four years since 1954. More than 16,000 athletes from 45 Asian countries participated in the 2018 Games. For the first time, the Asian Games were co-hosted in two cities; the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, and Palembang, the capital of the South Sumatera province. Preparation for the Games involved building new venues and renovating existing venues across four provinces in Indonesia: Jakarta, South Sumatra, Banten, and West Java. A total of 80 venues were involved, with the main stadium, Gelora Bung Karno, located in Jakarta. The Asian Games are a large-scale international event. The 2018 Games had to cater to many thousands of people—including athletes, spectators, organizers and supporters, from 45 different countries. An incredibly robust video surveillance system, along with many other security measures, was essential for both smooth operation and for the safety and security of everyone present at the Games. The Asia Olympic Committee worked with PT. NEC Indonesia (NEC Indonesia), the ICT security system partner for the 2018 Games. Their goal: to create a smart, safe and highly-efficient environment, by deploying an innovative network infrastructure alongside advanced video surveillance systems.

Games and Sports : a Gateway of Women's Empowerment in India
Games And Sports : A Gateway Of Women’s Empowerment In India Dr. Krishnendu Pradhan ABSTRACT “Sport has huge potential to empower women and girls” - Remarks by Lakshmi Puri; UN Assistant Secretary-General and UN Women Deputy Executive Director. The purpose of this paper attempts to shed light the status of women’s empowerment in India through games and sports and highlights the issues and challenges of women empowerment in the field of physical education and sports. Sport is an integral part of the culture of almost every nation. However, its use to promote gender equity and empower girls and women is often overlooked because sport is not universally perceived as a suitable or desirable pursuit for girls and women. Today the empowerment of women in games and sports has become one of the most important concerns of 21st century. But practically women empowerment in games and sports is still an illusion of reality. It is observe in our day to day life how women become victimized by various social evils. Women empowerment is the vital instrument to expand women’s ability to have resources and to make strategic life choices. Empowerment of women in games and sports is essentially the process of upliftment of economic, social and political status of women, the traditionally underprivileged ones, in the society. Today sports and physical activity as a strategy for the empowerment of girls and women has been gaining recognition worldwide. Women could be empowered through education, sports and physical activities and by giving them equal opportunities in different walks of life. Research on sport, gender, and development indicates that sport can benefit girls and women by: Enhancing health and well-being, fostering self-esteem and empowerment, facilitating social inclusion and integration, challenging gender norms and providing opportunities for leadership and achievement.
