Tokyo Olympic chief apologizes to IOC over stadium change

Boston was initially chosen by the USOC to be the American candidate for the 2024 Games, but following the refusal of the city’s Mayor to commit to bidding for the multi-sport event, had its application rescinded in dramatic fashion. And if that’s confusing to the IOC president, than it shows exactly why the IOC is in the position they are, in not having multiple countries bid for the Olympics.

Luckily, the city gave the Olympic committee at least 24 hours notice, nine years to be exact.

Vocal groups of Boston residents opposed to the games had said that taxpayers could well end up footing the bill. “He said this can not be left to the Japanese government alone”, former prime minister Mori added. The interesting thing about the IOC is, this is starting to look like a real crisis for them.

So it could but would IOC members welcome it?

“And Thomas Bach’s rules and regulations basically were saying to us that Boston and the taxpayers of Boston were going to have to pay for any overruns or if the games got cancelled, Boston would have to pick up the cost”. The IOC is eager to have a strong candidate from the U.S., which hasn’t hosted a Summer Games since Atlanta in 1996.

Meanwhile, Olympic Council of Malaysia (OCM) president Tunku Tan Sri Imran Tuanku Ja’afar, in his speech, expressed his gratitude to the government of Malaysia for supporting and sponsoring the event.

“Los Angeles has great history, lots of experience”, he said.

Bach, who will travel to Rio de Janeiro for the one year countdown on August 5, said in an interview Thursday that he believed the troubled preparations would be completed just in time. New York finished fourth out of five finalists for the 2012 Olympics. Economists roundly agree that the Olympics are a money-losing proposition. “It’s preseason. They have all the right to change the team and make their final adjustments”.

Today, neither the committee nor city officials would comment. “London spent $500 million on their broadcast and media center”.

The United Kingdom hired Szymanski, the Michigan professor, to be an independent referee for the report. He says the process took about three years.

“I would be pleased to engage in discussions about how precisely to present the best and most fiscally liable quote with respect to our area and land, with all the USOC”, Garcetti said. The Youth Orchestra then performed more traditional Malaysian music, including the popular song “Tanah Pusaka”. “Generally speaking, Southern cities were growing faster than the nation”.

So bring back the Olympics to California. He said he refuses to “mortgage the city away”. The city of Boston is cheering, the city of Boston is crying.

The move was a blow to that campaign and came after four out of six cities withdrew from the 2022 Winter Games race, leaving China’s Beijing and Kazakhstan’s Almaty as the only bidders.

Ten IOC members resigned or were expelled, and the IOC adopted a series of reforms to clean up the organization. Not to mention the public transportation system (the MBTA) would not be fit to host so many people in such a short time. Cities struck by recession could reap tangible benefits from an influx of construction and a revamped reputation.

The reaction of the Boston populace after their marathon was bombed taught us the meaning of the term “Boston Strong”. “My proposal would be that a city like Detroit should be awarded the games”.
