National Day Rallies have always been 3 weeks late. This year it's a few additional days late.

Hah, I did a search.
2007 - 19Aug
2008 - 17Aug
2009 - 16Aug

Its 10 days at the most, not 3 weeks

Original strategy was to have the Rally after a very succussful YOG to enhance everyone's patriotism and so on. :smile:

However, the poor showing of the athletes without any Gold to show and the food poisoning, bad food for volunteers etc etc may result in the opposite effect, actually.:(
