Article Abstract:

Organizers of the Commonwealth Games in Malaysia in 1998 are experiencing major difficulties such as the Asian currency turmoil, drought from El Nino, low interest in games, and the heat and humidity. They hope that interest in the games will rise, but so far only 6% of the 1.2 mil tickets have been sold. Organizers are concerned that the weather will adversely affect the lawn bowls.
