<Topic> Some people say that international
sporting events contribute greatly to peace and stability in the world. To what extent do you agree or disagree? |

It is clear
to say the reason why global sports events were created is in order to forge the
solidarity and world peace among countries. Nonetheless, the gargantuan
number of people give their voice to revoke holding international sports games
these days because they believe that it conveys detrimental impacts on people.
As I have an inclined notion against the positive effects of international sports
games, the supportive ideas will be discussed in this essay to reinforce my standpoint.
First and Foremost,
I strongly feel that global sporting matches such as Olympic games or Asian games
do not pursue the prosperity of world peace but summon conflicts up. This is because
many people can see that a radical backlash after the games owing to the misjudgment
and the hooligan is one of the interminable issues in sports industry. For
example, in 2002, an Italian soccer team terminated a contract with a Korean soccer
player since his national team won the football game against that of Italian counterpart
due to his golden goal in overtime. It causes a tremendous demonstration in Italy
and Italian football fans condemned his team. By the time, the conflict between
Korean and Italian sports fans was worsened and it also became a diplomatic issue.
Furthermore, as
those matches require biblical investments, it can be a burden of citizens. Constructing
stadiums accommodating millions of people, athletes’ dorm, and managements of
those facilities after the game need exorbitant taxes. For example, although Korea
held the Seoul Olympic Game successfully in 1988, scores of people complained
about leaped taxes and criticized the government’s policy which was conducted
before the game. Because the administration intended to clean the streets in
Seoul by removing homeless people and houses of citizens in penury. As Brazilian
people also struggled the same problems prior to hold the Worldcup, now lots
of people doubt the necessity of international sporting events. To conclude, even
though global sports events were created to thrive peace on the Earth and the
social prosperity, I am firmly convinced that those games are not indispensable
since it can ignite conflicts among people who have different nationalities
and require a plethora of taxes. |
