Beijing 2008 hasn't yet started, London 2012 is still haggling over its budget, but Olympic planning has moved on to 2016. The Madrid 2016 Olympic bid has launched various parts of its website in two new languages, Chinese and Arabic, in addition to the already available English, French, and Spanish. As a result, Madrid is the only candidate city to host the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games that offers contents in both Arabic and Chinese.

 

So far, so global but you almost half expected the next quote - so here it is. "With this initiative, in which we are pioneers with respect to our competitors, we want to present our Olympic and city project, "The Games of the People", to the whole world," said Mercedes Coghen, Madrid 2016 CEO.

Yes, 2016 - Games of the People.
