Some people think that hosting an international sports event is good for the country, while some people think this negatively influences the host country. Discuss both views and state your opinion.

Arranging an international sports event is a matter of pride for the

host

country

, while some argue that it has a negative impact on the

country

which is hosting it.

However

, In my view, it has a more positive impact compared to negative influences.

Firstly

,the

host

country

gets a chance to show its hospitality and culture to the world because these kinds of events are broadcast on television and are enjoyed by millions of people all over the world who will

also

judge the arrangements of the

host

country

.

Secondly

,If the international players who are visiting a

country

to participate in games and audience from other countries who are watching these sports on television are get impressed by the culture of that

country

then

there is the probability they will come to

this

country

again in future for tourism that enhances the international tourism and contributes to the nation's economy.To illustrate, the

last

Olympic games were hosted by Japan in Tokyo and I was so impressed by the presentation of that

country

that I am planning a tour to Japan soon.

On the other hand

, hosting international sports events sometimes proves very costly for the

country

because it includes a lot of things like arranging food and accommodation for the international players and their staff members for a couple of months. Arranging transport for their commuting purposes from the hotel to the competition venue.

Furthermore

, it is the responsibility of the

host

country

to provide security and medical services to the international players. For an instance, in the previous year during the pandemic , the cricket team of New Zealand refused to go to Pakistan and playtest series with the Pakistan cricket team because they believed they would not be able to protect them from the pandemic and were unable to provide proper medical facilities.

This

was a matter of shame for Pakistan. In conclusion, everything has some positive and some negative impacts,

however

, positive influences are more significant than the negative ones which could be managed.
