A collection of 16 original Olympic Games Torches on loan from The Olympic Museum Collections have arrived in Singapore ahead of the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games (Singapore 2010).
These Torches – from 16 Olympic Games spanning 1936 to 2008 – will be on display at two exhibitions in August: Blazing the Trail at Level 3 of the International Convention Centre, and More Than Winning, which will be held at the Youth Olympic Village (YOV). This will be the first time that such a large collection of Olympic Torches are on exhibition in Singapore.
The exhibitions are produced in partnership with a curatorial team from the Singapore Philatelic Museum as part of the Culture and Education Programme for athletes and the public. Through artefacts – such as the Torches and Olympic medals – informative exhibition panels and interactive multimedia exhibits, the exhibitions will vividly illustrate how Excellence, Friendship and Respect have propelled the Olympic movement, right though to the creation of the Youth Olympic Games.
GOH Kee Nguan, SYOGOC’s Chief Executive Officer, says, "It will be a rare opportunity for everyone to see 16 original Olympic Torches in Singapore. These Torches, kept since 1936, are rich treasures of the Olympic Movement. I hope Singaporeans and visitors will enjoy the exhibition and experience part of the rich Olympic history."
Tresnawati Prihadi, General Manager, Singapore Philatelic Museum, says, "The inaugural Youth Olympic Games is a once in a lifetime event. We are very honoured to have the privilege to be part of this milestone event."
