Interview on Arrival at Monte Carlo, Monaco

22 September, 1993

Journalist: Sydney appears to be dropping back

PM: It's easily the prettiest city and the most attractive and the best technical bid, so why would it drop back?

J: Beijing appears to be the favourite? 

PM: I'm not sure that's true. I don't think... Sydney. as a city, is a place for athletes and this is going to be a decision taken about athletes and athletics and sports. Sydney is by far the most superior place and I expect it to get up.

Ends.
