KNN spend $390 million and get this kind of banner!!!

[exSINgaporean]

[I can bet this is the first YOG and will be the LAST.

Which country would want to spend US$250 million or more to host a boys-nd-girls game which noone wants to watch.

The amount of "motivational" acts done by the lower ranks and ministers to spur the local to buy tickets is another warning to future countries. later PM Lee and MM Lee will made emotional speeches during the National Day rally to appeal to the public to buy tickets.

They will end up forcing students and NS men to buy tickets and then "take attendance" at teh venues bec. they know many of them will not border to go if there is no some sort of enforement.

This stupied YOG was former World Youth Game but it was scripted just after one game and renamed it as "Youth Olypic Games"...a kind of glorified youth sports meet.

Below is an excerpt from the Wikipedia and you will notice the "official first YOG was in Moscow in 1998!

"The 1998 World Youth Games was the first international multi-sport event of its kind. More than 7,500 young athletes representing 140 countries [1] of the world participated in this event. Because the World Youth Games was under the patronage of the International Olympic Committee [2] [3] (IOC), it is also known as the first Youth Olympic Games. It took place in Moscow, Russia from July 11 to 19, 1998."

I always believe Stompers are boh liaos and goondoos and every now and then, they will prove me right.

If they can just make a search on Google, they will find that the Olympic Torch will arrive in Singapore on 6 Aug, hence marking the start of the event even though the competitions will only start days later.

Dunno how to ascertain facts and only good at kpkb, these are Stompers for you.

Above paragraphs are interesting.

If I recalled correctly, our MIWs said something like they will spare no expenses to host this event since it is the WORLD'S FIRST YOG, and that it will be in Singapore ?? Did I read wrongly or getting senile ?

Did someone pulled a fast one on his boss, the PM, to get the event approved and overspent by more than 3 times in millions ?

This time they host the Youth Olympic. 2 years later they will host the Little Miss Universe.

How do you explain the end date on the banner then?

Additionally, who puts the date of arrival of the torch as the start of the event?

Warped logic you have.
