The investment put into the event, through sponsors, time spent by our staff and volunteers, and the effort taken by athletes and officials to travel to Singapore have been wasted beyond measurement. The Singapore Swimming Association, along with FINA deeply regrets canceling day one of the finals. On our part, the SSA will seek legal advice and may consider joining other parties and individuals in any class action suit which is brought against any Singapore-listed company which is linked to the burning of forests in Indonesia which is now causing one of the worst haze episodes to affect the region and in particular Singapore.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Jose Raymond, Vice-President (Finance), Singapore Swimming Association and former CEO, Singapore Environment Council<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Not only has the SSA been forced to refund tickets from the first night, meet organizers are still required to dole out prize money for the first night based on times from both Beijing and Hong Kong stops as well as any times swum during day one prelims\/timed finals.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s a huge financial hit considering a meet like this is typically not well-attended in the first place and much of the money is made via sponsorship dollars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After poor
