The 2008 Summer Olympics (simplified Chinese: 二零零八年北京夏季奥运; traditional Chinese: 二零零八年北京夏季奧運; pinyin: èr líng líng bā nián běi jīng xià jì ào yùn), officially known as the Games of the XXIX Olympiad, will be celebrated from August 8, 2008, to August 24, 2008, with the opening ceremony commencing at 08:08:08 pm CST (12:08:08 UTC) at the Beijing National Stadium in Beijing, People's Republic of China.[a] Some events will be held outside Beijing, namely football (soccer) (in Qinhuangdao, Shanghai, Shenyang and Tianjin), equestrian (in Hong Kong) and sailing (in Qingdao). The Olympic games were awarded to Beijing, People's Republic of China after an exhaustive ballot of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) on July 13, 2001. The official logo of the games, titled "Dancing Beijing," features a stylized calligraphic character jīng (京, meaning capital), referencing the host city. The mascots of Beijing 2008 are the five Fuwa, each representing one color of the Olympic rings. The Olympic slogan, One World, One Dream, calls upon the world to unite in the Olympic spirit. Athletes will compete in 302 events in 28 sports, just one event more than was on the schedule of the Athens games of 2004. Several new National Olympic Committees (NOCs) have also been recognized by the IOC. The Chinese government has promoted the games to highlight China's emergence on the world stage,[2][3] amidst concerns about environmental issues, human rights violations in Tibet and other part of the state. Nevertheless, former IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch has said the Beijing games will be "the best in Olympic history."[4]

what you know about tibet? you brainwashed bastard, you are a fed up with tv propagandas, go out and see what is it

Tibetans are subject to arbitrary arrest and detention Torture still prevails in Chinese prisons and detention centres Enforced disappearances, where a person is taken into custody and the details of their detention are not disclosed, continue to occur. The 11-year-old 11th Panchen Lama has been missing since his status was announced in 1995. Today, it appears the Chinese are using Tibet as a dumping ground for their, and foreign, nuclear waste. tibet(.)net (Central Tibetan Administration)
