Asian Games baseball rules need to be reviewed (Equity issues)

No translation in your language yet — showing the English version

Depending on whether a participating nation has professional teams or not, I believe it would be more balanced to allow teams like Hong Kong or Thailand to use aluminum bats.
While pitching strength is somewhat unavoidable,
the difference in hitting power is on a completely different level..
In matches between teams that own professional clubs, there isn't a massive gap in strength regardless of whether pro players participate, but in reality, the gap between Hong Kong, Thailand, the Philippines, and Palestine is more than the difference between college students and elementary schoolers…
In contact sports like soccer, you can somewhat narrow the skill gap through tactics and mental strength, but in baseball, which is a pure skill sport, that isn't possible.
At this rate, I feel baseball's standing in the Asian Games will continue to diminish.
To expand the base of baseball in Asia and increase its popularity, it is necessary to apply an advantage, such as aluminum bats, to participating nations from countries where baseball is a wasteland.
That is the only way to achieve some level of balance.
If we played under the balance mentioned above and our country lost to Hong Kong or Thailand?
Then we would just have to accept it.:
