In my search for new speakers at our now very soon starting speakers bureau I bumbed into this website by Beijing resident Gilbert van Kerckhove, also advisor of the Beijing government regarding the Olympics next year.
On his weblog he describes the still unclear features of what will happen to Beijing during the Olympics and it is not a happy story.

Yesterday I met a lawyer with office in Jianwei SOHO. They received notice they will not be allowed to operate during 3 weeks. SOHO to be closed. Forced holidays. Hm…. interesting. Switch off your computers, lock the door and come back later. More puzzling, many firms in SOHO - and other buildings - will have a peak of workload during the Games as they will be involved in organizing events, assisting visiting foreign colleagues and clients, and much more.Foreign residents are already planning a holiday in Thailand during the Olympics, he suggests. A much needed call for sanity.
