Evans Phidelis Aryabaha 6 June 2010, Beijing, China ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS With deep gratitude, I express my sincere appreciation to Ambassador Kishan S. Rana, Ms. Hannah Slavik and all Diplo Staff for their continuous support, patient guidance and invaluable insights throughout this course. My appreciation also goes to my colleague Mr. Michael Bulwaka for his inspiration and encouragement, and for sharing information about Diplo offers; and to Diplo Foundation for its partial sponsorship. I salute the Administration of the Foreign Ministry in Kampala and the Uganda Embassy in Beijing for granting me a study opportunity for career advancement, knowledge expansion and skills enhancement in Contemporary Diplomacy. Finally, I am greatly indebted to my dear wife Caroline Ngabirano Aryabaha for her love and support, thoughtfulness and understanding especially during the course of this study. iii DEDICATION To my precious trio; Ayesiga Alvin, Ashaba Anita and Aheebwa Alton, for their delightful compliments, fascinating curiosity and inspiration to greater heights. iv ABSTRACT The 2008 Beijing Olympics were ardently sought, lavishly staged and hugely successful, despite intense scrutiny, speculation and setbacks. Amplified by modern media, most controversies revolved around China‟s political repression, epitomised by Tibet brutality. Resultant protests threatened boycott and terror, putting internal cohesion, national image and Olympic dream at stake.
