I think that the Youth Olympic Games is a great way of showing the world that Singapore can also hold wolrd-wide events such as the Youth Olympic Games and the upcoming F1 night race.This gives Singapore a better understanding of what holding big events are like and learning from the experience.Youth Olympic Games also shows the worls Singapore's hospitality in the tourist and athelets. With the tourist and athelets that visited Singapore during the Youth Olympic Games,they will want to come and visit Singapore again which benefits Singapore in terms of tourism
Beside the Youth Olympic Games benefiting Singapore in the economic way,Youth Olympic Games also show the world that Singapore can also have good medal-winning athelets.The Youth Olympic Games will also inspire the younger athelets to do better so when it is time for the next Youth Olympic Games they can participate and represent their country.
