The formal events of the 18th Asian Games were finalized by the Asian Olympic Council and the Organizing Committee of the 2018 Jakarta Asian Games on September 25, 2016. At the general meeting of the Asian Olympic Committee held in Incheon in September 2014, the Asian Organizing Committee of Jakarta proposed an initial plan for 39 events, namely 28 Olympic events plus baseball, softball, bowling, kabadi, rattan, squash, martial arts, cricket, karate, paraglider and water bike. With the return of baseball and softball to the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee has added karate, rock climbing, skateboarding and surfing, increasing the number of Olympic events from 28 to 33. However, the Executive Committee of the Asian Olympic Committee believes that bridge should be added to further adapt to the development direction of the future Asian Games. Today, the Asian Olympic Council has decided to reduce some of the events in the 18th Asian Games, including cricket, skateboarding and surfing. According to the constitution of the Asian Olympic Council, the Asian Olympic Council is the only highest leading organization with the right to decide the competition items of the Asian Games. Therefore, the Asian Olympic Council and the Asian Organizing Committee of Jakarta have finally determined that the competition items of the 18th Asian Games of Jakarta are the following 40:
32 Olympic events
Bowling, kabadi, rattan, squash, martial arts, bridge, paraglider, water bike
