Mr. Chadchart Sittipunt, Governor of Bangkok said that sports are an important matter for the city. It helps us to be healthy and have a clear mind. This is something we are proud of because it is Benjakitti Park’s sports center, which has various types of sports fields to play in. Today we are opening another court, namely table tennis. After this, there will be cycling, yoga, and extreme sports. For the Bangkok Sports Festival 2024, Bangkok organized sports competitions because competition is a part of stimulating people and increasing the potential of athletes.

In this regard, we would like to thank all the private sectors that help support this Benjakitti Sports Center to be a quality exercise place for the people of the city.
