RMJM’s chief executive Peter Morrison has criticised the decision of key figures, such as the artistic director for the Games, Steven Spielberg, who are boycotting the Games because of the country’s human rights record and more recently China’s alleged inaction to stop atrocities in Sudan’s Darfur region.

Morrison’s firm has designed the Beijing Olympic Green Convention Centre which, in addition to being the venue for the fencing and pentathlon shooting events, houses the main international media and broadcast centre which is expected to attract 5,600 journalists from around the world. Morrison states that the opening of China to the world’s media is a major step forward for a country which is better known for its media censorship
