Separate from the Steven Seagal angle, “Nations appear to approach the event with varying levels of seriousness. The Pakistan and Turkmenistan teams arrived in the stadiums in sharp, matching official teamwear, while the Italians looked dressed for a summer garden party. The Emiratis entered the stadium together with their hunting falcons, while the Madagascans entertained the crowd with a group dance. There were surprisingly large contingents from India and the United States, and plucky one-man delegations from Botswana, Zimbabwe and the Democratic Republic of Congo”

“The intentions of the new system are not only economical, fighting fraudulent practices, but also moral. ‘This is a deliberate effort by the Chinese government to promote among its citizens “socialist core values” such as patriotism, respecting the elderly, working hard and avoiding extravagant consumption’, says Creemers.
