Qatar hosted the 15th Asian Games in December 2006 — the first Gulf state to do so — and issued a commemorative series to mark the occasion. The games required construction of 37 new venues across Doha, a building program that reshaped the city's western districts in under four years.
Table tennis had been an Asian Games discipline since Bangkok 1978, where Chinese-trained athletes established a dominance that has never seriously been challenged in the event's history.
