From London to Beijing and back

Monday 18th of August 2008: only 4 days until the end of the Olympics in Beijing. Only 4 days to win the last medals. China is still at the top of the medal tally with 37 golds, 14 silvers and 14 bronzes – an insurmountable task now for any other nation to equal. Following USA, Great Britain have 12 golds, 7 silver and 8 bronzes, placing us on the third step of the podium, all the while studying how China is managing the Games and how the Chinese economy will be and is already growing on the Olympic wave. But the question is will the crest be as equally insurmountable for Great Britain when we are thrown in the deep end?

Some have marked this as the Asian Century – the Chinese power has grown and will continue to grow, followed by India and the countries of the Gulf. Though the Western powers are fast being overshadowed by the growth of the economies in the Orient, one way in which this has been marked is in the Occidental interest in Asian shares. Even if the market is volatile, Asiatic opportunities are new. And new spells potential for investors.

Open your eyes, be updated about new events and politics. The Times explored similar ideas in a recent article entitled ‘how to invest in China‘. We want to underline the importance of the Games and the broad importance of the next Games in London for London as well as for the Europe.
