Part 5

So for the YOG, what are some of the key success factors? How will you measure the success of the event? What are some of the ways you are looking at in determining success? Attendance?
To me, the most important thing is whether there will be an impact and a legacy left behind in Singapore. That’s why we bid for it in first place. Will we be able to mobilize the young people? Will we be able to actually create this sports culture in Singapore? That’s the most important (success) through the Youth Olympics.

Secondly, it’s of course for Singapore. Will we be able to organise an outstanding Games to enhance the brand and image of Singapore internationally, and put Singapore on the world map, and the world sporting map as well? We are right now on the world map for economics but what about sports? Can this Games help us? And then we will be really seen as the regional hub for sports.
