There was a bit of confusion about the number of people who will be part of the Malagasy delegation in the 2008 Olympics. Official reports were not disclosed until a few days ago when we learned that 7 athletes will participate (fr) instead of the four initially announced at the beginning of the month (en). Moreover, the number of non-athletes official delegates is still unknown but all of the 107 gold medalists at the latest Indian Ocean Olympics Games will attend the games in Beijing as invitees of the president (fr).
