The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) is putting in a bid to host the 2006 International Children Games (ICG).

Pranee Satayaprakorb, Director sports division of the BMA, was quoted Sunday by Thai News Agency as saying that at the International Children Games this year held last month in Greece, sports people from Bangkok competing in the event had proposed that Bangkok host the 40th Games in 2006.

The ICG would consider the request of Bangkok once an official petition was submitted by the Bangkok governor, she said.

Noting that the games served to boost good relations among cities around the world, with the games last month attended by young sports people from 145 countries and regions, Miss Pranee said that Bangkok Governor Samak Sundaravej was fully behind the scheme, and also wanted to see young sports people from other provinces involve in the scheme.
