The preparations in my view are right on track. The arrangements are excellent. The organizing authorities are really doing a wonderful job. And you can imagine it's less than one year to the Games, but the Chinese are already prepared for the Games.

So it's excellent. Recently we were invited to Tian'anmen Square to watch a rehearsal for the preparation for the Games. It was spectacular; it was great; it was wonderful.

I must definitely see the Games. I would love to see them very much. And I will attend. I have the confidence that the Games will be successfully held. I just hope that my team from Uganda can take home gold medals. I'm worried that China will take most of them!
