Singapore is host of the inaugural Summer Youth Olympic Games in 2010.

To screams of delight, the hope of the little nation was realised by the International Olympics Committee (IOC) in an announcement broadcast live from Switzerland on 21 February.

It beat Moscow,the other candidate city shortlisted with Singapore from nine other cities which had put in bids to host the inaugural event.

Some 3,200 athletes aged between 14 and 18 are expected to take part in the Youth Olympic games which will see sporting events as well as forums and educational workshops.
