Policy of mass physical fitness

By Zhang Xiaoxuan | China Daily | Updated: 2014-12-17 07:46

The government has made the promotion of the sports industry a national strategy. This innovative policy will, indirectly and directly, help people maintain physical fitness and increase their (especially youth's) participation in different types of sports.

Even though the government had been urging people for a long time to exercise or play sports regularly to keep physically fit, it was difficult to make it work. But the innovative policy, apart from boosting the sports industry, will also spread health awareness among the people. In this sense, it is a significant reform - from the narrow focus on performances on the sports fields to overall promotion of physical fitness and sports.

Most people watching games, including the Olympic Games and the World Cup, on television are unaware of how important sports are, despite their love for sports. In general, people see gold medallists as jewels, discounting or discarding the other athletes. This attitude is an insult to athletes and exposes people's ignorance about competitive sports. Performance is not the be-all and end-all of sports.
