Bye-bye, Doha – Xinhua

China Daily’s report says, “Chinese men’s basketballers won the nation’s last gold medal at the Doha Asian Games on Friday, increasing the number of golds won by the Chinese to 165, the second-best record behind 183 at the 1990 Beijing Games.” At the closing ceremony of the 15th Doha Asian Games Chinese artists were singing and dancing like celebrating a big festival. The coming Asian Games will be held in southern Chinese city Guangzhou in 2010.

Here are some photos from Xinhua at the closing ceremony of the 15th Doha Asian Games:
