Philip Craven, IPC (International Paralympic Committee) head honcho, was impressed with the Paralympic Games preparations which Beijing has made. He felt like “over the moon” as the Olympic city was transformed into a Paralympic city in just days after the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics.

“The Paralympic Village is just fantastic. We’ve got the very best accommodation, the very best food, good transport.”

Craven was also content with the fact that China had been doing its best to fulfill its promise of making the Beijing Olympic Games and Paralympic Games equally splendid.

“The airport is very important for the people who use wheelchairs and what’s been put in place at the Capital Airport is state-of-the-art,” he said. “In fact the BOCOG has devised certain procedures that we have never seen before. That means when you get off the plane, very quickly after the plane arrives, your chair is waiting for you there. That’s one example.”

Fiona of QuirkyBeijing and CNReviews on what’s next for post-Olympics China.

- Human rights: Despite the high-profile sentences of two elderly women to labor re-education after they applied for protest permits, one Italian expatriate living in Beijing wanted to show the world that it was possible to protest. It wasn鈥檛. The United States sent in a strongly-worded statement to the Chinese goverment about human rights; China鈥檚 response from a Foreign Ministry spokesman creatively invokes Abraham Lincoln. The ongoing discussion and debate on China鈥檚 human rights record is sure to continue.

In the immediate future, one beneficiary of the Olympics is the Paralympics鈥搘ith the passion for spectator sports fairly undiminished, tickets for events have been going quickly. One loser? Olympic souvenir collectors, the value of official souvenirs is falling rapidly.
