Volunteers hit by diarrhea
Wow, the volunteers have great stamina to keep their waste inside for so long. Instantaneously, the incident comes to mind - Indian 'Rojak' food poisoning - the stall owner was fined and was sentenced to jail.
At a major event, which they are trying to show case to the world? The person who provided the food is going to suffer very serious consequences. Now I guess, all the food has to be tested before they are being served, just like in the movies when somebody wants to poison the King.
I think hosting the YOG allows Singapore to promote her own unique identity and herself as a commercial, educational. financial and tourism hub. It also presents Singapore in a different light as a global sports centre. The event is expected to attract thousands of visitors to Singapore and will bring substantial revenue to her economy. Successfully hosting an event can significantly propel Singapore's development and renown when acclaim is garnered from prominent figures and world leaders. This can give Singapore the confidence to host more high-profile events in the future. But now, with the volunteers having food poisoning, all of this may disappear. If the word gets out, which has already happened, Singaporeans would be blaming the cater company who prepared the food. But thankfully, the volunteers have all recovered.
