Some people think that Olympic games are exciting event that brings other nations together. Others say Olympics expensive waste of money that would be better spent on other things.

Discuss both these points of view and give your own opinion.


It is said that, holding Olymic games brings a variety of countries together, while others think that it is a waste of financial resource which can be used for vital issues. I strongly believe that the Olympic games is the event which holds all countries together to one goal.

According to the point of view, the international sport games such as Olymic games which is the big event that holds once every four years. It costs a huge financial investment to hold this action. For example, the Olympic games was held by African countries and had to spend big investment in 2010. Because of this event, the government had to rebuild a lot sports stadiums, attracting tourist destinations and hotels around the countries to hold the number of tourists who came around the world.For some country holding this action just a simple event. This is reason why many countries spend over trillion dollars to organize this event while they could spend that amount of money to their society.

On the other hand, holding th Olympic games has a lot of benefits to that holding country particulary every country over the world. A major sporting event like the Olympics can attract thousands of people from over the world.These foreign tourists bring a boost to the local economy. In particular the local tourist trade, shops/hotels will benefit from visitor numbers also, after the event the stage of tourists may continue visiting that country. Moreover, major sporting events require investment in building stadium and hotels. This creates jobs for the population of country in 4 years before the event.Because of this event, the unemployed can find job opportunities for themselves and this would help for its local econmy. Particularly this event mey increase interest for young generations in sports who want to achieve a gold medal for their country and maybe because of this, the young generation will get to see the participation of their best athletes.

In conclusion, there are benefits and drawbacks of the Olympic games. In my opinion, I strongly believe that this event should happen continuously. This event unit every country over the world and every country wants to be part of the Olympic games.
