Compulsory Blog Entry #3

Recently, there has been the Winter Olympics taking place in Vancouver, United States. There has also been news of Singapore hoping to groom athletes to qualify for the 2014 Winter Olympics held in Sochi, Russia.

I feel that this is a brilliant idea as it would allow Singapore to strengthen their bonds with the countries participating in the Winter Olympics. This is because the majority of countries participating in Winter Olympics are usually located at a place far from Singapore e.g. Canada, United States etc. This would benefit Singapore as with closer political ties with other countries can Singapore do even better politically.

It would also be Singapore's first appearance at the Winter Olympics and it would be a significant milestone in Singapore's history.

I hope that Singapore would be able to groom athletes good enough in time for the Sochi Winter Olympics 2014.
