China ready to deliver safe Games

Contingency plans to ensure good air quality during the Games, including shutting down factories and taking 45 percent of vehicles off the roads, come into effect for two months from July 20.

Xi said China needed the same energetic attitude it displayed after the devastating May 12 earthquake in Sichuan, which left more than 80,000 people dead or missing and united the nation in grief.

"We must transform the great spirit of earthquake relief into practices and actions for the preparation for hosting the Olympic Games," he said.
