Ecuador, very good; amazing numbers!

When you do something, you make an improvement; we cannot talk about improvement when the government completely ignores areas such as sport, education and health. For example, the High Performance Centre has been abandoned. Then, it is not about improvement, but about starting to deliver on the goals that central and local governments were elected to.

Several things must be done. Invest in top-level sports facilities. There must be adequate infrastructure to train and prepare athletes. This includes building or renovating stadiums, gyms and high-performance centers. Also increase financial support for athletes; many athletes face financial difficulties in supporting themselves and training professionally, so it is necessary to increase scholarships and subsidies for athletes to help them fully devote themselves to preparation. Encourage grassroots sports development and invest in sports promotion and training programs from an early age so that sports talents can be discovered and cultivated from an early age. It is necessary to develop a comprehensive work plan involving all sports-related institutions from sports federations to educational centers. (profound)

Jose E. Otoneda Sanchez

In order for our athletes to compete in the next Olympics, the national government and the Ministry of Sports must make improvements, among which the following points must be considered:

Provide adequate and timely financial support to athletes of all professions, with reasonable distribution and control. Necessary sports facilities where athletes can practice and thus be fully prepared to achieve good results in future competitions. Appropriate medical control so that they can receive timely and correct treatment according to their requirements. Similarly, the behavior and daily activities of athletes must also be monitored to protect the investment in these matters. (profound)
