Youth Olympics held in Singapore some years ago was widely criticised for massive budget over-run. That event cost SGD hundreds of millions but brought in little economic benefit. These days Singapore Tourism Board much smarter to target F1, Taylor Swift etc that can really bring in tourism money.
Cost of Living in Australia is very high that's why they are uncompetitive in hosting Commonwealth Game. Our cost of living is many times cheaper, we can host the games cheaper
