The road to the Tokyo Olympics is expected to be a costly one.
And according to secretary general of the Barbados Olympic Association (BOA), Cameron Burke, it can take approximately $1 million to get the home team to the 32nd staging of the most prestigious sporting event.
He made that prediction during yesterday’s launch to the countdown of the games and the Barbados Lottery’s Going for Gold scratch game at the BOA headquarters.
“[We don’t have the exact] estimate as yet. As you know, Tokyo is a little far away so if I am to do an estimate looking at what happened before when we went to Beijing, it was just over $1 million, so I suspect that it will be in that ball park again,” he said. (RG)
