You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

Arranging the multi-country sports games is a way to compete among each country in a friendly manner. I strongly believe that holding these regularly is essential in expressing the friendship and trust between the

countries

and is to strengthen the diplomatic relations. So, I genuinely think that it is an excellent action in building a peaceful nation. Being a host means inviting the guest to our country and giving them a chance to learn about our culture and heritage.

This

can assist in developing tourism and in turn, improving the investment from foreign

countries

and the economy.

For instance

, the 27th Sea Game was held in

Myanmar

with ASEAN

countries

as participants and

Myanmar

gain plenty of recognition from

this

event. The downside of

this

whole scheme might be the need of allocating a huge amount of budget for the occasion and for the developing

countries

it is quite tough. As

Myanmar

is a developing country in South East Asia, it was challenging for them to invite the ASEAN

countries

.

However

,

Myanmar

was able to pull

this

off in 2013, a small step but a giant leap for

Myanmar

. To conclude, it is a very nice idea to celebrate international sports events regularly and

this

behaviour between the nations indicate that the world is changing to a better place. For the future generation, the war and conflicts among the

countries

should only be in the history books.
