SOUNDBITE: (Portuguese) Eduardo Paes, Rio de Janeiro Mayor

"I can affirm, reaffirm, guarantee how many times it is necessary that, in the history of the Olympic Games, there won't be a city which will receive so much impact in a positive way as Rio de Janeiro will be, regarding infrastructure, in things done for the people. With all the respect to Barcelona, we will have a major revitalisation of our central area and our image. The central area of Rio is just one element. The mobility, with the BRTs (Bus Rapid Transit systems), subway, increase in capacity to use at the trains, it is a program affecting the entire city of Rio de Janeiro. From 18 percent of people affected to 60 percent of the people."
