The government and the people have good support for sports, and in the martial arts, in disciplines such as Taekwondo, Karate, Judo, Wushu, Kurash, and other disciplines, given our position in continental and global events, indoor and martial arts games, Asian Games, Islamic Solidarity Games, Combat Games, and the Olympics, we are ready for any kind of interaction and cooperation, and we can expand it in other sectors”.
