Anywhere but Oslo.

I voted "no" in last year's referendum. 67% of citizens in Oslo are against the 2022 Olympics.

It's interesting. Most people in Beijing support it, but many in other places of China are against it.
Obviously people in other Chinese provinces cannot enjoy the benefits but will pay the bills.

Highlands of Scotland!

On a serious note. I like the sounds of Oslo???
The Chinese don't deserve it because those communist bastards had a summer one not that long ago! Also the Chinese government would probably destroy peoples livelihood in the areas they'll build stadiums or whatever! Na Norway is a good, pleasant and respectful nation!
