Risk management is a critical component in China's ability to pull off a successful Olympics, with the country's reputation as a stable and secure business center at stake, according to a risk intelligence expert.
Kevin Liu, head of the Asia Division for Exclusive Analysis in London, which assesses violent risks globally, noted that China's efforts to accommodate protestors during the Olympics could be a positive step toward improving the country's overall business environment.
In addition, he said that visitors to the Olympics will see a renovated city because of massive improvements to Beijing's infrastructure. For example, he noted that airports have been renovated, new railway stations opened up, new roads built and other roads repaired.
