At the end of my trip, I came to the conclusion I needed. Today, the World Kurash Family is approaching nearly 140 country- members. Many of them, which developing steadily and receiving the support from their goverment, which they have deserve. But, unfortunately, they are those, which still not yet much developing and they are not even trying to do it by themselves.

This year on February 8-10, Pattaya held the training for Thailand referees. The seminar was attended by 20 strongest referees, from about 10 provinces of the Kingdom of Thailand.

This year the IKA’s Directing Committee determined best events, athletes and officials in ten different nominations judging their overall performance and contribution to Kurash promotion in their respective countries, continents and in the world.

We hope that the New Year of 2020 will be one of the productive years for all of us and for our favourite Kurash. I am happy to send you my sincere wishes.
