The result was Keep. Significant notability established easily sufficient to surpass WP:GNG requirements. Non-admin closure per WP:NAC #1. --Hammersoft (talk) 21:59, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable sports event. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 16:11, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the Gnews links directly above reveals more than enough coverage to rather easily meet WP:GNG. Individual years at these games may well not be notable. But a main article seems a slam dunk. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:36, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep. 317 Gnews links, pages and pages specifically about this event, headline after headline. In addition, WP:GEOSCOPE – demonstrable long-term impact on a significant region of the world (640,000,000 people in South East Asia) from annual events since 2009. I don't understand why this was nominated. Jack N. Stock (talk) 05:57, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per the abundance of available sources. Lepricavark (talk) 17:56, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
