The Pan Asian sports games heading to China in 2010, is the hope of the people in Guangzhou, Shanghai that these games can do for your city, what the Olympics are in Beijing and to a lesser extent, what the world made for 'Expo added. After winning the right to host matches in 2004 (single candidate), the city has worked hard to make a real change in time to impress his big neighbor.
Guangzhouhas s always as one of China 'and cities and has a centralized government was elected with the largest after China, the symbol of this important regional event. The games themselves are 42 different events, including many who would never make the Olympic Games (Chess hold dragon boat races and kabaddi!), Providing a taste of Asia.
But what does it mean to Guangzhou? This means that the truck of the central government have been throwing money in the city (mainly because privatePartnerships have been difficult during the coming GFC) is a secret, poorly kept that the games have found their way to the first budget blown, and although the head of the Guangzhou Organizing Committee has ensured that the games would be held at 2 billion yuan (293 million U.S. dollars U.S. dollars) was the last estimate that the games are already costing up to € 4 billion.
