hard to say,
if i dont remember wrongly singapore is currently also running
on deficits.
to balance the books , it could be one of their strategy. becoz
the govt employ heaps of civil servants and they spent alot on YOG,
this and that event which all running on govt budget.
i dont understand why we need to host YOG. just waste of govt
resources without the impact of global influence. coz nobody give a
damn about YOG.
yes, YOG is nothing much in the sport arena, but the objective
of YOG is to gather young peoples to take a good look at Singapore,
and hope that they can come back as tourist, PR or citizenship.
Moreover, our casinos needs them for future profits
