The 2nd Asian Winter Games (Japanese: 第2回アジア冬季競技大会, romanized: Dai 2-kai Ajia tōkikyōgitaikai), also known as Sapporo 1990 (Japanese: 札幌1990), were held from March 9 to 14, 1990, in Sapporo, Hokkaidō, Japan. India was originally scheduled to host the second edition of the games, but due to technical and financial difficulties it gave up its hosting rights to Japan in 1989. The 2nd Winter Asiad saw three NOCs participating in the games for the first time: Chinese Taipei, Iran and the Philippines.

Sports

Events from only six sports were held in the Second Winter Asiad. Figure skating was temporarily out due to conflict with the 1990 World Figure Skating Championships, while Large-hill (90m) Ski Jumping was again a demonstration sport.

Participating nations

Teams from Iran, Chinese Taipei and the Philippines made their debut at the event, which had a total of over three hundred athletes entering from nine nations.

Hong Kong, which had sent a delegation of figure skaters to the last games, this time sent only officials.
