At the closing ceremony, swimmer Jiang Yuyan and track and field athlete Di Dongdong served as flag bearers for the Chinese delegation. The night before, at Paris La Defense Arena, 19-year-old Jiang shattered the world record in the women’s 100-meter backstroke S6 final with a time of 1:19.44, claiming her seventh gold medal at the Paris Paralympics.

“Standing on that podium, watching the flag rise and hearing the (national) anthem play because of my own hard work — it’s a feeling of pride and fulfillment that’s hard to describe,” Jiang said. “I often sing the anthem as loud as I can, I wonder if you can hear me.”

The Chinese delegation reaffirmed its dominance in swimming, athletics, table tennis, fencing and badminton, securing 22 gold medals in swimming and 21 in athletics.

Paralympic pool prodigy Guo Jincheng, who is easily recognizable with his shaved head and no swimming cap, competed in nine events, bringing home four gold and two silver medals.

Olympics: China Urges US to Stop Racist Propaganda! (7.8.2024)

07/08/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Foreign media, such as The New York Times, has been making false doping accusations targeting two Chinese swimmers involved in a case that was proved to be a food contamination incident in 2022. The athletes were subjected to routine drug test the day after they had Coke, hamburgers and fries together at a restaurant in Beijing in early October that year. The result came back positive for an anabolic steroid the following month, The New York Times reported in July.

The accusations, although denied by the WADA, led to more frequent than normal doping tests for Chinese swimmers before and during the Paris Games.

Regarding being tested frequently in Paris, backstroke veteran Xu Jiayu said the athletes have no problem with that. “We follow the rules. I don’t want to make any excuses. We did overcome some challenges,” he said.

China: US Racism Aimed at PRC Swimmers! (29.6.2024)

Regarding the request of the USADA CEO at the hearing to review the case file of the TMZ contamination case, its purpose is to legitimize the illegal access to and unauthorized disclosure of the information in the case file by media outlets including the New York Times and ARD, and then form distorted and misleading conclusions through the so-called review and investigation with already preconceived judgement, so as to reach the purpose of politicization of the contamination case. Such request, without any legal basis, is in violation of the World Anti-Doping Code and the legitimate rights and interest of the athletes. We will never accept the request for the publication of the case file made by USADA and certain members of the U.S. Congress, and we resolutely oppose the impudent request for reopening the investigation as claimed by USADA.

Keenan rushed to her aid and guided her to the surface. She made it out unharmed but he blacked out and was found floating face down some distance away.

This is a selection of the hundreds of photographs our family took whilst aboard the ‘Quantum Class’ Cruise-Liner ‘Anthem of the Seas’ – which is owned by Royal Caribbean International! This was part of the ‘999’ give-away deal which allocated ‘free’ four-day cruises to 999 members of the British NHS, Police, Prison Officers, Fire-Brigade, Army and other members of the Emergency Services! This was a ‘thank you’ by Royal Caribbean for the bravery and determination of the ‘Blue-Light’ Card holders who kept the UK safe during the ongoing Covid19 pandemic! My partner – Gee Wyles – won this cruise as she has served on the NHS frontline from day 1 of the emergency as a London Midwife!
