Japan is making a joke again! Even the national flag was hoisted wrongly at the opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games: the gold medal peeling off was not the most outrageous thing

Although the Tokyo Olympics has ended, the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee has become the target of criticism from the outside world. From the cardboard beds in the Olympic Village, to the poor water quality in open waters that caused athletes to vomit, to the peeling of Olympic gold medals, it has to be said that the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee is really full of flaws. But this is nothing in comparison, because at the opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games, Japan even raised its national flag wrong!

On the evening of the 24th, the opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games continued to be held in Tokyo, Japan. Although the popularity of the Paralympic Games cannot be compared with that of the Olympic Games, as a major event, the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee does not dare to neglect it. But what I didn't expect was that during the flag-raising session of the Paralympics opening ceremony, something outrageous appeared on the scene!

During the flag-raising stage of the host country, the flag-raising personnel on site actually raised the wrong Japanese flag. Originally, the rectangular flag should have the wide side next to the flagpole, but when the flag was raised, the long side was next to the flagpole, so an embarrassing scene occurred. Compared with the flags of other countries, the length and width of the Japanese flag are not easy to identify. Therefore, after the flag was first raised, the on-site staff did not notice that it was raised incorrectly.

It wasn’t until a while later that the staff hurriedly corrected it. Although the live footage did not show the correction, this mistake became a hot topic after the opening ceremony.

I have to say that the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee really made another joke this time. I thought it was outrageous to lose the Olympic gold medal, but I didn't expect that they could even raise their own flag wrongly. This means there were no spectators at the scene. If there were, maybe the spectators would have thrown bottles! After all, the national flag represents the face and image of the country, but in such a large-scale comprehensive event such as the opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games, it is really outrageous to make such a low-level mistake!

Speaking of the issue of Olympic gold medals peeling off, there are currently three athletes in our country who have experienced this situation, namely trampoline champion Zhu Xueying, gymnastics champion Zou Jingyuan, and swimming champion Wang Shun. Among them, Zhu Xueying and Wang Shun both saw stains on their gold medals, so they picked them with their hands and lost a large piece of skin. Zou Jingyuan said that the damage to his gold medal was not that serious and could not be seen without looking carefully. He also revealed that the bronze medal was fine.

Regarding the peeling off of the gold medal, the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee said: The peeling part is the coating film and does not affect the quality of the medal. Such a response is obviously unconvincing!
