Beijing is getting ready for the next Olympic Games
by Natalia Holvova


Republic of China is getting to host next summer Olympic Games in august 2008. The preparation and organization is as big as China alone is. The host city Beijing is changing, everything is in process and progress at the same time. China is going to be grandiose and extraordinary. The great torch relay is planning to be the longest and the most impressive ever even though critics can see some other aspiration in gorgeous plan. The track will start 130 days ahead and will end on Mount Everest where the Chinese-Nepal border is situated. One of the necessarily component on this route is communication at all times. That's the reason why China Mobile had built new cell phone station on the mountain. This new facility will provide continuously signal and will enable torch holders to be in contact with the rest of the games team as well with the general public watching incredible final steps. The climate conditions in this area are not very easy as well so the organizers had to develop new ways how to make the signal work and how to ensure stable fire on the Olympic torch. Over 200 days have left to the start of the event on the old continent. Test is already taken and the station is packed away for the winter so they can bring it back in the summer to provide the gleam and glory to the opening ceremony for the 29th summer Olympic Games.
