More than two million Thai youths are at risk of gaming addiction, the Ministry of Public health revealed yesterday, as they asked parents to limit their children’s game play to a maximum of two hours a day.

Public Health Minister Dr. Piyasakol Sakolsatayadorn said at the opening of the ceremony for this year’s National Mental Health Week that the World Health Organization (WHO) announced their plan to add “gaming disorder” to the global list of medical conditions earlier this year.

The disorder is defined by the latest International Classification of Diseases as a pattern of gaming behavior characterized by impaired control over gaming, prioritizing gaming over other activities to the extent where it takes precedence, and continuation or escalation of gaming despite negative consequences.

Same same facebook then.

Only 2 million? And they want to recognise it(gaming) as an Olympic, um, 'sport'?
