Thailand has reaffirmed its full readiness to deliver one of the most extensive broadcast operations in SEA Games history, as representatives from ASEAN broadcasters gathered in Bangkok on 14 November for the official Broadcaster Meeting and Press Briefing ahead of the 33rd SEA Games and 13th ASEAN Para Games.
The meeting, held at Avani+ Riverside Bangkok Hotel, brought together broadcasting delegations from across Southeast Asia to finalize preparations for the regional multi-sport event, which Thailand will host from 9–20 December 2025 across Bangkok, Chonburi, and Songkhla.
