This Day, That Year

Editor's note: This year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China.

On Dec 4, 1991, a Chinese delegation submitted its formal application to the International Olympic Committee in Lausanne, Switzerland, to host the 2000 Olympic Games.

In May that year, the Beijing Campaign Committee for the Games was established, as seen in this item from China Daily.
