As we all know, Beijing, China hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics, a major international multi-sport event held from August 8 to 24, 2008. Although the Beijing Olympics Beijing is all dressed up, but no one will participate because the organizer had difficulty managing an unexpected event within the venues of the Summer Games. Olympics officials are disappointed by the many empty seats at nearly every event and the lack of foot traffic throughout the park. To overcome the problems, officials are organizing state-trained cheer squads to help fill empty seats, improve the atmosphere and encourage residents to apply for access to the highly protected park. According to the executive vice president and general secretary of the Beijing Organizing Committee, there were many factors contributing to this problem, including the blame on the weather, which is both the extreme heat and humidity, and the downpours that canceled some events on Sunday . He also said some tickets include access to more than one session, which could encourage holders to skip the day's less interesting events. Another factor is strict visa restrictions that keep foreign ticket holders away. According to hotels and tourist sites, the Olympics were supposed to bring business to Beijing, but the reality is too far from expectations. It means they have to decrease the rate to attract more tourists to stay in their hotels. The organizers missed a great opportunity to celebrate their games and enjoy the festivities because masses of cheering fans and Olympic revelers would help present their country in the light possible, as the games are televised to an estimated worldwide audience of more than 4 billion. Also a tough organizer... at the center of the card... five actions by governments, businesses, communities and individuals. They can leverage positive changes in traditional consumption patterns and construction practices. They will probably produce a nice event in the future. Works Cited1. Peter E. Tarlow. (2002).
