Shi Tianshu, Candidate for UAM President

Representing China, I am standing here before you and asking you for support for my bid to become the next UAM President.

I am doing so out of my aspiration to contribute to the development of motorcycle sports in Asia.

Asia, a Great Continent

Asia boasts the largest population in the world

Asia’s economy is developing very fast

There is a bright future for the development of motorcycle sports in Asia

China, Potential Market for Motorcycle Sports

China boasts not only a population of more than 1.3 billion, the largest in the world, but is also a huge market for motor sports and motorbikes.

The Chinese Motor Sports Association is a national sporting authority governing all kinds of motorcycle sports in China.

CMSA enjoys rich experience in administration and strong support from the government.

Dynamic Economy and Thriving Motorcycle Industry

Since the early 1980s, China has witnessed sustained and rapid economic development.

China's gross domestic product ( GDP) grew by more than 9.4 percent in 2005.

The country produced more than 15 million motorcycles in 2005 and exported 3.87 million of them.

Sports Industry Booms in China Thanks to 2008 Beijing Olympic Games

China, particularly its capital Beijing,  will be the focus of world attention in the coming years as the 2008 Olympic Games will be staged in the capital city.

As China is to host the Olympic Games in 2008, many international sports organizations have set up offices in the country.

The 2008 Olympic Games has given a new impetus to the development of the sports industry and the economy as a whole in China. This will be beneficial to Asia and the world in general.
