PROBLEMS OF FIVE RINGS.
PROBLEMS OF FIVE RINGS.
GAMES WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD.
Nikolay DOLGOPOLOV, member of Executive committee AIPS.
Summer п п п п п©п п п?п -2000 promises to become one of most
Expensive in Olympic history.
And all began about enough reasonable figure. It was supposed,
That the budget of Sydney will make somewhere 967 million dollars, well in
Extreme case - billion. Today the figure has already come nearer to
To mark in 1,7 billion, however and billions, apparently, not
Will suffice. And it thus, that owners of the future Games have already distributed
200 million which have been given out by it by the International Olympic committee
As to a city-organizer.
It would seem, what to us business to the problems which have arisen in Sydney?
Let Australians understand with charges in the address
Own Organizing committee Olimpiady-2000. And these reproaches rather
Are serious. It was suddenly found out, that 434 thousand somewhere have disappeared
The cheap tickets intended for rather poor citizens and
Schoolboys. And only after angry performance of the prime minister
The countries tickets were suddenly found. However, organizers of Games even
Have not apologised. The director of Organizing committee for commercial questions pol
Riding has not considered it necessary julit before the press:
- I am a disgusting person of capitalism, - he has declared.
Riding recognised, that any remorse because of concealment
Cheap tickets does not test, for its purpose as much as possible to raise
Incomes in budget п пЁя -2000. About what here Olympic principles
Or at least rules it is possible to speak, when round the Olympic Games
Such commercial race has begun?.
By the way, it of all though has concerned with the slightest image
Connected with Olympic affairs. At recent session of Executive committee
The international Association of the sports press (AIPS) have sounded
Disturbing notes. If the prices for residing in Olympic Sydney
Contrary to Olympic rules will raise with same
In the speed shine Games can only selected. The prices in hotels
Increase at all by any high percent, and at once in
Two, sometimes three times. Moreover specially to the Olympic Games
It is supposed to impose the special tax, to pay which it is necessary
To all who will reach Sydney. Executive committee AIPS will address in MOK with
The request to understand an event. But, to tell the truth, hopes on
That will put organizers of Games into place, nevertheless is a little.
