Instead of training a few athletes to win medals at the Olympics, governments should spend the money on programmes encouraging the public to be active and stay healthy.To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?Give reasons for your answe

It is true that the government are spending a tremendous amount of money on the nation's champions. Hence, some people believe that the government should allocate more resources on campaigns to promote citizens to be active and healthy rather than spending money on a few athletes to win tournaments and championships. In my opinion, I partly disagree with the statement since contesting athletes bring their countries foreign investments and benefit the public greatly.
Firstly, investing more resources in maintaining athletes ensures more chances of victory in the Olympics, and this tournament is worldwide. This is a matter of patriotism and pride since a country with many medalists will be seen as the top country for certain sport. For example, vietnamese athletes travel to the US to study archery. Secondly, money spent on athletes concludes the construct and maintain of sports facilities that can be useful to the public. Practice is needed for an athlete to compete in such large competition; thus, all sport equipment should be in constant good shape. Lastly, the athletes represent their countries, they show other countries the economic power and living condition of their homeland. Their performances in the game show the world the capability to train athletes and the power of the nation. For example, athletes from foreign countries travel to countries with gold medalists to train.
However, all things should be balanced; If the government neglects the public's health, there will be consequences. A society with a downgrade physical health means a decline in the work force, thus can affects the economy adversely. Moreover, ifthe public's health condition is bad, the public can be vulnerable to diseases and again stunt the nation's economy.
In conclusion, resources should be spent equally on athletes and the public to ensures the development of a nation.
