** One World One Dream


Still one more week to go for Olympics 2008 to kick start. All preparations are ready and all sports persons are well prepared to face the challenges. Many countries are expecting this event a lot amidst of Terrorist attacks, Natural disasters and so on. Each and every citizen of the respective countries are expecting their country to win more medals in this competition. I think many of us are well known about the Olympic morale.

...::::: Participation is important, wining is not important ::::....

I want my fellow bloggers who are from various countries to share their thoughts about this event. And also share that how many medals you are expecting from your country. We will see that whether it's coming true or not.

Good Luck to every one

My expectation, India will get Gold : 2, Silver : 1, Bronze : 2

Note 1 :
Kindly try to see the previous posts which contains ** in it and comment there too. Because some of you may be missed it due to the sponsored posts. Thank you....

As far as security is concerned,I think it will be fine.I will be pleasantly surprised if India bags a gold.

My prediction is...

Drug Scandal: 3
Total Flop: 7
Last Place: 4

This is a country that is obsessed with cricket. So unless they introduce cricket in the Olympics don't expect any medals.

Never been quite a fan of the Olympics. Apart from Formula 1, I have no other interest in sports. If I have some time to kill, I'll definitely try and watch the Beijing Olympics.

I'm suffocated by the amount of exams I have! Hope to find some time to indulge myself in other activities.

I dont' know about India but the US is going to have a tough competition against China. Hopefully Russia & Germany will slip through for more medals as less pressure for them. I guess India can win a Cricket medal, nehi?

My opinion about this event?
Well...
I think I will censor it by not watching it.
I will censor it as China is censoring freedom and justice.
Shiva, you posted about corruption. Let me tell you that in China they could get the gold medal.
Investigation about the fact that construction companies cut the corners for so many schools in poor area in Sichuang (following the devastating earthquake)? Closed. Everything was good and done according the book...
But schools in more rich areas still stand...
Officials there are offering money to the parents if they sign a statement (to make it simple, just shut your mouth).
If you publish pictures of the devastating area, you are jailed.
No waves for the Olympic Games...
Even the IOC is in someways, an accomplice.
So yes... I will censor the games.

I agree with Franck, I would not look at the Olympic Games. For obvious reasons of human rights, I decided to boycott the televised retransmissions. Moreover, if you allow it to me Selerines, here a link towards a petition for the boycott of the Games: http://www.nogameswatching.com/
