The wait is finally over.
The first international youth Olympics will be hosted in Singapore!. One more feather to her cap I would say. Recently, the trend is such that Singapore is out and about to get her hands on everything! And she slready has her hands full; She announced the Casino project, first Formula One night race and now the first International Youth Olympics.
This opportunity has come at the right time. Singapore saw the first sports school open in 2004 where it aimed to nurture students who had the passion for sports with curriculum. This would provide the morale boost for the students as well the nation as a whole to see what its calibre is.

I am eagerly waiting to participate in all the happenings and Proud of you Singapore. All the way! 
As a Singaporean I’m extremely proud. What makes me even more pleased is the fact that Prime Minister Lee H.L. was right there with the whole team! I know it’s not a political move on his part but frankly, his presence there can only result in one very positive image in the eyes of the Singapore youth. I’m certain he’ll be supported by them for years to come. After all, today’s youth are singapore’s future. Kudos to our beloved Prime Minister and everyone involved in the bid!!
