BIRMINGHAM, Great Britain – Birmingham could become the sole bidder for the 2022 Commonwealth Games as Kuala Lumpur is unlikely to secure the backing of the Malaysian government, informs insidethegames.biz.
The deadline set by the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) for cities to announce their intentions to bid for the event is 30 September.
The country’s Prime Minister Najib Razak has said he would prefer to consider a bid for the 2026 Commonwealth Games instead.
