Dr. Sirichet said “I thank every member country of the Asian MMA Confederation for trusting me to serve as Vice President of the Asian federation. It is a responsibility to build the future of MMA in Asia to be stronger, to push toward the Olympics in the near future. What I emphasize is building a safe athlete-development ecosystem from the youth level, with a clear pathway, standards, and the ability to grow from national to continental level, and on to GAMMA's international competition platforms. Thank you for the hard work of every member of the association's executive board, who together pushed Thailand's mixed martial arts to the front rank of Asia in a short time. Today we are not looking only at how many medals Thai children will win. We must build a system that gives new athletes a chance to grow and go as far as they can on their own path.” The Thailand Association of Mixed Martial Arts continues developing Thai mixed martial arts from the youth base, coach development, international competition experience, through to pushing Thailand's role in Asian and world sport organizations. From building new athletes in Thailand to helping shape the future of MMA in Asia 🇹🇭 Cheer on the 4 Thai athletes fighting for gold in tomorrow's finals! #TAMMA #TeamThailand #ThailandMMA #GAMMA #GAMMAAsianChampionship2026 #MMAThailand #AsianMMA
