Special Report:   2008 Olympics Countdown

Beijing's Olympic organizing committee has started an initiative to enroll 300 native English speakers to be volunteers for the 2008 Olympic Games.

So far, BOCOG has signed agreements with thirteen foreign universities for volunteer enrollment. It's estimated that nearly 22,000 foreign journalists from over 200 countries and regions will come to report on the Beijing Olympics.

Native English speaking volunteers will help provide accurate information, such as the schedule of events.
