To prepare for the coming Asian Games, we have a lot of things to do. First of all, we will build one more National Stadium, some sports buildings and car parks. The National sports Centre and local stadiums are not in good condition, so they need to be immediately upgraded. And we will widen the training areas and the roads to the sports buildings. Then we have to equip all the hotels and guest houses with modern facilities to welcome foreign athletes and visitors. These hotels should also have special services for disable athletes. It is necessary to promote and advertise all the preparations for the Asian Games on the radio and TV. Finally, we need to recruit volunteers to serve the Games. These people should be university teachers and students with good English. One more important thing is that we have to hold a competition to choose an official song for welcoming the Asian Games.
