Ms. Danka Bartekova is one of the 30 selected YOG Ambassadors from Slovakia; her job like any other ambassadors are to promote YOG.
When interviewed by Slovak media, she said:
“I’ve heard that some of the athletic fields in Singapore are no better than the standard school facilities, nothing special. Maybe Slovakia does have the potential to organise YOG, but I cannot imagine that our country would be able to accommodate the thousands of athletes and officials that would come to the games. That would require huge investments by any host country.”
She also pour scorn on Singapore spending its way to beat Moscow in organizing the inaugural YOG.
“Singapore knows that they cannot organise and hold a “Big” Olympics, so they invested a lot of money to hold a “small” Olympics instead,” she added.
