In two days’ heated competition, international students showed their spirit of solidarity, mutual support and fighting. Paul, a Ugandan athlete, lived up to expectations and once again won the first place in the men's discus and the second place in the shot put. This was the fourth time that Paul has won the championship of discus in GPNU sports meet. He was the veritable king of this project. Between the games, international students’ African drums and singing and dancing attracted many onlookers and became a beautiful landscape outside the field of play. The attendance of international students added an international color to the Games. It also enabled the faculty and students to see the vitality and enthusiasm of international students, and helped international students to experience the campus culture of GPNU and better integrate into the big family of GPNU.
