As Guangzhou is accelerating its preparation for the 2010 Asian Games, Guangzhou citizens in every field are making an endeavor to help the host city take on a new look. On the 5th of January, Mayor Zhang Guangning announced that the government is considering giving its people a big Asian Games present as a reward for their cooperation and devotion to the Games. As to what the present would be, relevant departments would collect ideas from the citizens.
This good news has brought about great guesses among Guangzhou people. Thus various opinions have emerged. Some prefer to have several days’ holiday as a reward, while others hope to receive the tickets to the events in the Asian Games. Sports lovers are eager to have free access to city stadiums. Some opportunists suggest the government hand out lottery tickets, in which case they may have the chance to win a big fortune. In contrast, those who hold a down-to-earth attitude are looking forward to some new year lucky money or to have more discounts when taking buses or the subway. For apartment hunters in their 20s or 30s, nothing can be more comforting than the thought of being able to buy an Asian Games Village apartment at a reasonable and acceptable price.

To express thanks to its citizens, the Guangzhou government plans to deliver an Asian Games present to them. As to what present they would like to receive, opinions vary from person to person.
The idea of delivering an Asian Games present is encouraging, not only because of the present itself, but also because it is a symbol of the government’s care for its citizens. By handing out the presents, the government will show its gratitude as well as fill the people with a feeling of being focused on. In this way, they are more pleased to serve the city and lead a happier life, which is bound to contribute to the harmony of our society. Therefore, this act would be mutually beneficial.
As a Senior Three student who is going to university soon, I suggest the government should help pay part of the university tuition fees, for university students are the future of the city. Besides, this will rid poor students of the worries about the heavy burden of the fees, helping them better concentrate on their studies. I am looking forward to this present!
