MORE CONTROVERSY AT BEIJING OLYMPICS


[+] serious ballot by JimmyJams
ACTIVE Thu Aug 21, 08 - Tue Feb 17, 09

Update.

This could get quite nasty. According to the Times Online, a hacker has successfully uncovered even more evidence that He Kexin of China's female Gymnast squad, is not even 15.

Apparently the hacker at first just tried Google, only to discover that an official listing by the Chinese sports administration that had originally given her age as 13 could no longer be accessed. He then tried the Google cache, only to find that He Kexin's name had been removed.

Additional evidence proves that He Kexin is under age and further, proves that the government of China knowingly lied and created false documents.

Now, three of those female Gymnasts are under international scrutiny, because in addition to He Kexin, Jiang Yuyuan and Yang Yilin are apparently not of age either. China has apparently done this before, and has a history of forging documents to falsify ages of their Olympic athletes.

Because of this fraud, China has taken medals is it not entitled to. In fact, it could mean that Britain’s Beth Tweddle could move from fourth place to bronze medal position. My shock and outrage stems from a government cover-up and outright lying. They want to be respected? They should then allow the medals their female Gymnasts have won to be stripped and give to the rightful winners.

I say this could get nasty because the internet is quite scary to the China government and it appears that their deceit is catching up with them.

China is in hot water now
It will be ignored and swept aside

Voted : China is in hot water now
I just had an epiphany. You all must think me mad. This is my third entry on this subect. I happen to be very focused on the Olympics.

I'm not sure what to think. I watched a BBC investigation on this and looked into the age of her classmates and found they were all 16.

Interesting. Can you post article. Would love to have a look. Well so far all information suggests she is 14 and the other two are around the same age. Not clear as to why the Chinese government would publish her age as 13 and then mysteriously, that's the one page pulled off the net. I tend to think that the evidence that there is cheating going in is absolutely conclusive and overwhelming. Please post BBC story.

Don't want you to think I'm lazy mate, but I did a search on BBC and nothing on her age came up. Message I got was

There are no results for kexin in the Beta Version of the BBC Audio & Video search. This is a new service and more content will be added in the future

Voted : It will be ignored and swept aside
At least until after Ol' Whatzisface steps up and proclaims the thing "Greatest Olympics Ever!" (which will bring a host of hisses from folks here in Atlanta, who *didn't* get that honorific back in '96 and are *still* miffed). In about a year, this'll all trickle out, and the medals China won improperly will be reassigned, and all will be well... :P

Further developments. From the press, this update.

The International Olympic Committee has ordered an investigation into the age of Chinese gymnast He Kexin, The Times of London reports.

Faced with almost insurmountable evidence which suggests that He is two years younger than the birth date listed on her Chinese passport, the IOC has launched an inquiry that could result in the stripping of He's gold medals.

This news comes on the heels of another Times report that details the findings of a New York computer security expert who found official Chinese documents that list He's age as 14 years and 220 days. Mike Walker used a Chinese search engine's cache feature to find He's actual date of birth on spreadsheets from a Chinese government website. The spreadsheets were taken down off the site recently and He's name had been removed.

Assuming the IOC is committed to a real investigation and not some dog and pony show, the revelation that the Chinese government covered up the ages of gymnasts could end up being the defining moment of these Games for the host country. Officials wanted the Olympics to be a coming out party for a new China. But while the Games have been a huge success, there is a legitimate possibility that China's legacy from Beijing '08 will be that of a massive government cover-up, not the magical Opening Ceremony or the transformation of Beijing or anything else positive.
