Fuwa of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games

The official mascots of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games are five lovely Fuwa which are blue, black, red, yellow and green in colour. These five colours represent the five rings of the Olympic Games.

The names of the Fuwa are Beibei, Jingjing, Huanhuan, Yingying and Nini. When put their names together, it forms a phrase "北京欢迎你" which means "Welcome to Beijing".

The mission of the Fuwa is to promote friendship, peace, positive attitude and the loving of natural environment to all children of the world.

Jingjing

Huanhuan

Yingying

I have only three Fuwa, namely Jingjing, Huanhuan and Yingying. My son bought them when he visited China during last year summer holidays. Perhaps he had given the other two Fuwa to his friends.

One World One Dream

The long awaited Beijing 2008 Olympic Games finally had started.

I leaned on the easy chair to watch the live broadcast of the open ceremony of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games at 8.30 pm August 8.

The fireworks that brightened Beijing night sky had widened the vision of the world and strengthened the relationship of mankind.

Beijing 2008 Olympic Games is not only the glory of the Chinese but also the beginning of the "One World One Dream".

Hopefully the Olympic spirit will exist forever to achieve a peaceful and harmony world.
