  • Ideals and Significance of the Paralympics: Observations from Temporal and Spatial Dimensions
    Ideals and Significance of the Paralympics: Observations from Temporal and Spatial Dimensions Ideals and Significance of the Paralympics: Observations from Temporal and Spatial Dimensions Kazuo OGOURA Introduction As the Paralympics becomes more widely recognized and the public’s knowledge and interest grows, Paralympic competitions are, in part, starting to be commercialized and made into a form of entertainment. The current situation calls for a re-evaluation of what has been considered as the essential significance and effect of the Paralympic Games and the Paralympic Movement on society. In other words, there is an increasing need to look back on the history of the Paralympics to examine its original significance and ideals and, at the same time, to re-evaluate or re-examine the significance and ideals of the Paralympics through comparisons with similar international games and movements. From this perspective, this article will attempt to revisit the original ideals of the Paralympics and to look back on the history of the Paralympics. It will also discuss the significance and ideals of the Paralympics from social and international perspectives, in particular through comparisons with other international disability sports competitions: the Deaflympics, Special Olympics, the VIRTUS（previously INAS） Global Games for persons with intellectual disability, and the Invictus Games. The observation and analysis will focus on Paralympic ideals through the following eight dimensions:（1） as symbolized by the Paralympic symbol;（2） the slogans of the Paralympic Games;（3） the words of Sir Ludwig Guttmann;（4） the speeches at the opening and closing ceremonies; （5） the stage performances at the opening and closing ceremonies, medals, and songs;（6） the achievements of the recipients of the Whang Youn Dai Achievement Award; （7） comparison with major international disability sports competitions; and（8） comparison with the ideals of Japan’s National Sports Festival for People with Disabilities.

  • Administration's Paper on Proposed Injection Into the Hong Kong
    LC Paper No. CB(2)1681/18-19(03) For discussion on 24 June 2019 Legislative Council Panel on Home Affairs Proposed Injection into the Hong Kong Athletes Fund Purpose The Government proposes to inject $250 million into the Hong Kong Athletes Fund (HKAF) and enhance the dual career support to athletes under the HKAF. This paper seeks Members’ views on the abovementioned proposal. Background 2. The Government established the HKAF1 in 1996 to provide grants to support the dual career development of athletes, so as to encourage them to pursue sports excellence and education at the same time and lay a good foundation for building a career after retirement from sports. The scope of the HKAF was later extended to cover young and retired athletes. The HKAF currently provides three main areas of support, namely – (a) education grants for eligible athletes; (b) one-off cash grants at the time of retirement from sports training through the Elite Athletes Performance Recognition Scheme (EAPRS) for eligible retired athletes; and (c) cash incentives through the Youth Athletes Scholarship Awards (YASA) for junior athletes participating in major sports events, such as the Youth Olympic Games. 3. The number of grants and cash incentives provided under the HKAF in the past four years are tabulated as follows – 1 The HKAF is a sub-fund of the Sir David Trench Fund for Recreation established under the Sir David Trench Fund for Recreation Ordinance (Cap. 1128). The HKAF received the Government’s allocation of $8 million and public donation of $5.171 million in 1996-97 as well as public donation of $0.077 million in 1997-98.
