SHANGHAI, China (AP) - The success of Beijing's 2008 Olympic Games rests as much on good manners as on the quality of facilities and athletic performances, China's senior delegate to the International Olympic Committee said Monday.
"It's the rude bus passenger or a witness to an accident who fails to lend a hand that stands in our way of staging an impressive Olympiad," He Zhenliang said in Shanghai.
"People are talking about showcasing our culture and the country's economic power through the extravaganza, but I think good manners should be put at the top of our agenda," He was quoted as saying by the Shanghai Daily newspaper on Tuesday.
