For example, it is easy to guarantee the supply of low-price tickets for some less popular events but how many low-price tickets can be provided for the popular events? If those events became a gathering of wealthy spectators, it would harm the humanistic image of the Olympics.

Also, it is a major issue to distribute the low-price tickets fairly and let those who really need them get them. It is said that the tickets will be sold under real names and the number will be limited for each head, which is a good method. But what about those tickets that are not open for sale? How will that be controlled?

The extremely low-priced student tickets should be sold specially to young people. But how can they guarantee the right management and supervision?

For those tickets that are not open for sale, internal supervision should be enhanced. And the flow of the tickets should be publicized in bright sunshine because it relates to public welfare and the public's right to know.

More than 7 million tickets for the Beijing 2008 Olympics will go on sale next year, and the low-price tickets will be the centre of attention. Related departments should take prompt measures to guarantee the fair distribution of tickets.
