Macao reaping gains and glory
Learning curve
Indeed, Macao will co-host the next edition of the National Games along with Hong Kong and Guangdong province. Officials from the Macao delegation are, therefore, keenly observing the operational side of things in Shaanxi this month.
"The organization of this year's National Games is very comprehensive and professional, which is a valuable experience for the organizers of the next National Games to learn from," said Pun Weng-kun, the deputy director of the Macao delegation.
"The pandemic-prevention regulations are especially impressive. All participants need to have regular COVID-19 test and health condition checks.
"The bio-secure bubble at the National Games is really reassuring. We have absolute confidence in our health and safety.
"The National Games are elite level, and our delegation boasts many young athletes. We hope they can level up their strength through the Games.
"I also came to watch how Xi'an is operating all the events here, and have learned a great deal from the smooth operation of everything.
"I must say, Xi'an is a wonderful place. This is my second trip to the city. This year's National Games will for sure be successful. I hope to get a chance to visit the Terracotta Warriors after the Games finish."
