when people say that Singapore won't make it... But we did!"
Winning the bid to host the inaugural International Youth Olympic Games in 2010 must have been one of the proudest achievement for Singapore. The win did not come easy and it took a lot of courage and hard work to even dare dream and strive towards this goal.
Winning seemed so surreal and I wonder how many Singaporeans are actually feeling the pride and anticipation... I hate to think this way but I just got a feeling that some are still too caught up with their own businesses, rising prices and their desire to strike TOTO to actually care. So winning the bid is an excellent opportunity to rekindle that fighting spirit our forefathers used to have and tune Singaporean's mindset (even mine) that the only people who can prevent us from achieving anything is ourselves!
I'm proud to be a Singaporean!
