I caught a glimpse on the Beijing 2008 Opening Ceremony on my cable TV after coming home watching Mummy 3 (which I felt it's a disappointment - its like the Americans really want to earn some cash showing their interests in China history). The ceremony was grand and the opening credits were beautifully carried out by a whole lot of our Chinese cultural arts presentations. The best part is the opening drumming sessions, sky Olympians presentations and of course, the major fireworks.....Suddenly I felt China is well-prepared for this event, whereby are they over-prepared for this?? Though we might say it is a 100 years dream, the whole world is looking at China but how about other organizing countries?? Man, I mean next stop London - UK got to do some real serious preparations.... to maintain with the new standard set by Beijing this year for the OC.
Many ppl I spoke to - they mentioned.... its normal as you know - Chinese likes to show-off.... but is that true?? I put myself into their shoes and I felt if we have been dreaming for this thing in 100 years time... then this 1st time will be the best at all cost.... that's the seriousness of being an Olympic organizer.... and the rest might just have to review their attitude towards this event and keep up with China standard....
Proud to be able to see this event of a lifetime.. and may China success in superb results for 2008 Olympic.... Congratulations, China Beijing! Good Job!
p/s - I wonder will they ever have any event in Diving Competition.... measuring who can dive the longest time records using 200bar cylinders... at least, Buddy Alvin will out beat both buddy Marcus and me.... hahaha
