The YOG is THE PAPies way of showing Singaporeans how great they are in staging the event. It's the typical propaganda bullshit from the PAPies. The YOG has very little in terms of selling Singapore to the world.

It''s not SG trying to use YOG to market itself.
It's SG trying to use itself to market YOG, which is partly the reason why it hasn't worked.
The other part of the reason why it hasn't worked is because certain individuals are trying to use YOG to market themselves.

true!!! i think ioc made a mistake by letting sinkapoor host it! if Moscow got it, it will really boost the profile of yog and i think more countries will give face to Russia than to sinkapoor. Russia is a strong country in olympic arena and they are really world class, it will lure more world class athletes to attend the yog compare to sg. u never know after sinkapoor first yog, will there be a sequel...

The MIWs should have held it onone of our islands instead. Or better yet, do a joint bid with Malaysia (Johore).

The only good thing from all of this is that the PAPies will no longer be allowed to host such an event again. They have shown how incompetent they are in even handling their budget, let alone setting aside arenas of international standing.

Ms. Danka Bartekova from Slovakia has better keep a VERY TIGHT watch over her country's sport-boy and gals.

If she is not careful, she may find all of her medal-winners holding Singapore passports even before she touch down back in Slovakia after the kiddy-games.

this will only materialize when they raise GST to 15%, and impose new forms of levies & taxes on the shitizens.

If the IOC wasn't invovled you would be certain that the cost increases would be kept a state secret. Afterall, we don't want our enemies to know how stupid our leaders and their planners are. :biggrin:

If Ng Ser Miang had not taken the VP post in IOC, we would not have been in this mess. Its sort of national service expected of someone who wants a powerful seat. At least, he should have got the organisation right and made it memorable for the country and the people taking part.

The ads have been dismal, the coordination bad and the whole thing is a train wreck. Even the state owned press is complaining.

Typical of Singapore, they will intrepret specs for the track and facilities in such a way that it meets the specs but everything else is a shortcut. Just like expensive HDB flats.

If you go to South Africa, you can see many of the streets and public facilities are following true western standards. Our is clearly asian standard.

People don't see what's in YOG for them. People dont see what the PAP govt sees in YOG. That's why it is a fialure. The approach is the same as the one taken with the S'pore Pavilion. Small-minded, tight-fisted, unclear expectations, feeling that they are not accountable, they waste our money away with slipshod decision-making. Not surprise it is because someone up there thought it was a great idea, and everyone below dare not naysay.

I wonder if a huge portion of this budget is stashed somewhere up north.

Her unusual outburst against the YOG is likely to exert pressure on the PAP which is facing a massive public backlash over the YOG exceeding its initial budget by more than two times to a whooping $387 million dollars.

SG is like City Harvest Sun Ho.
Using $$ to self glorify herself in US.
Spending millions of $$ on self made glorified MTV
and never heard before songs,
lavishing tons of $$ on highly class Hollywood mansion lifestyle.
Oblivious to the world. :rolleyes:
