Ok.... as you hard understood in the previous awful post (I really hate writting on the phone) the reasons Lima could lose their right to host 2019 Pan Am is due to the lack of support of Peruvian goverment which did not approved the necessary budget for organization purposes this year, which means Lima will not have any advance in 2015. Peruvian Olympic committee chairman Jose Quiñones, dropped out just yesterday (January 8) and the Peruvian Institute of sports (the organization in charge of Peruvian sport) is ran out of a president for more than a month and still has no a poposal name to take it over....

Just in case Peru is revoked from the games, Santiago will take over the right to host just in case the goverment accept the proposal. Anyway. Chilean president Michelle Bachelet in her farewell to the Olympians who participated in Naning 2014 past July (2014) asked Chilean Olymic Committee (COCH) to bid for 2023 Pan Am, having all goverment support to get them....

Only next Tuesday January 13, a special meeting of ODEPA - PASO will define if 2019 Pan Am continue in Lima or not....

Pan American Games 2019: Government reacted and agree that Lima will host

Until finally the Executive reacted to the version that Chile would take to Peru to host the Pan American Games 2019. The Education Minister Jaime Saavedra said that our country has reiterated the Pan American Sports Organization (PASO) its strong commitment with the completion of the event, as was defined in Canada on October 11, 2013.
"The Peruvian government is taking the necessary actions to make this event of great international importance to develop successfully. Objective will comply, "said the official Andina news agency.
Jaime Saavedra recalled that an important step was the opening last December, the High Performance Centre National Sports Village (Videna) located in the district of San Luis, work that required an investment of S / 132 million. "This new infrastructure is part of a process that has to continue," he said.
"The Pan American Games are an event that gives us the possibility of reviving the Peruvian sports and continue to support the high performance sports and sports work and physical education in schools across the country," he said.
INVESTMENTS
Jaime Saavedra said that a fundamental step that will in the coming days has to do with the final shaping of the Organizing Committee for the 2019 Pan American Games as well as the organizational structure for implementing investments to have the necessary sports infrastructure.
In this regard, he noted that the investments planned for this year are related to the preparation of technical files, to be financed with resources from the contingency reserve. "The most important resources in terms of capital investment it would have to run in 2016 and 2017," he said.
Saaverdra also noted that investments in sports infrastructure must be taken with care, because they have decided not only in terms of the Pan American Games, but also the needs of the city over the next decade.
"We can not create white elephants that are used only for the Pan American Games, but should be well studied investments," he said.
Jaime Saavedra said that it is not for the Presidency of the Council of Ministers (PCM) approve or review the proposed work plan submitted by the Peruvian Olympic Committee (COP), but it corresponds to the Peruvian Sports Institute (IPD) .
NOT AFFECT
Education Minister also clarified that the resignation of Jose Quinones for president of the Peruvian Olympic Committee has no impact or jeopardize the work of the country and the city for the realization of the Pan Lima 2019.
He considered that there has been confusion in some quarters about the role that can meet the COP in the development of games. He said that the COP is a private entity and the decisions taken therein need not affect the organization of the Pan American Games.
As regards the alleged offer of Chilean authorities to Odepa to its capital, Santiago, is the headquarters of the Pan 2019, Jaime Saavedra stressed that there is so far no official statement from the country and have only circulated newspaper speculation.
"There is absolutely nothing official than the reiteration of the Peruvian Government's commitment to continue with the organization of the Pan American Games. There is not any official communication from Chile or any other country to show interest in replacing Lima to host "he said.

Lima finaly will host the 2019 Pan Am Games. They rectified the Games with goverment support for 2019. It has been said that Chile was aware to take over the host if they withdraw. Nevertheles, it has been said it was a way of pressure from ODEPA - PASO to COP (Peruvian Olympic Committee) Anyway Chile again is left on the way :( :( :(

By the way the discussion, Lima has hosted many important events. Indeed it will host 2017 IOC session.

Santiago now has to wait for next bid process in 2017 to the race for 2023 Pan Am Games, facing bids such Medellín and a posible Central America bid.

A hard race to Santiago....

After a good time without pc, some news about Lima 2019:

Lima 2019 Pan American Games Has Organizing Committee

Finally Lima 2019 will Organising Committee (Copal). Since we were selected to host the Pan American Games October 11, 2013, have passed 16 months and tonight at the National Stadium, the installation meeting of the committee will be held.
El Copal, as has been decided to call this committee responsible for organizing Lima 2019, will be chaired by Luis Salazar Steiger, president of the National Society of Industries, member of the Peruvian Olympic Committee and former secretary of the Federation of Swimming.
Salazar Steiger work alongside 11 others (10 full members of the commission and one member as an observer with voice but without vote). The chosen representing public and private entities related to Lima 2019.
The Ministry of Education will have two representatives, one president Luis Salazar Steiger and other Jaime Crosby. By the Peruvian Olympic Committee will be their leader, José Quiñones, and Maggie Martinelli, president of the Federation of Gymnastics and head of the national delegation at the Olympic Games in 2012. The Municipality of Lima will be represented by Arturo Woodman, former head of IPD and Alfredo Deza, former athlete and former president of the Federation of Athletics.
Organisms that have only one representative are the IPD (Desilu León), the Regional Government of Callao (VP Walter Mori), the Ministry of Housing (Luis Tagle), the Ministry of Transport and Communications (Carlos Lozada) and the Ministry Economics (Eloy Duran). The 12th member, with voice but no vote is Ivan Dibós who belongs to the International Olympic Committee.
Lima 2019: what emergency measures to the organization?
Last night at the National Stadium, the Organizing Committee of the Pan American Games Lima 2019 was installed The move comes 16 months later (but before there was a committee chaired by the Peruvian Olympic Committee that there was formalized by supreme resolution) and time is short .We chose to host in October 2013 and now, almost a year and a half later, work is piling up. What are the priorities that have the OC?
1. List of sports
For Luis Salazar Steiger, president of Copal, first of all, you must define 100% on what sports will compete for Lima 2019. There are 37 that are required: the Pan-American character, but also the host city has the option to add some discipline. The thought of the surf Peru (where dreaming of medals available), the kung fu (wushu) and (closely linked to popular pediment) pelota.
To add to these sports must be authorized by the Pan American Sports Organization (PASO), it must meet certain requirements (number of countries where it is practiced, legal associations, etc.). The truth is that define the sports program is urgent; can not cook the menu without the ingredients.
2. Roadmap
The Master Plan. Yes, this guide will define what and where sports infrastructure projects be made to Lima 2019. "I know there are already proposed, but should be discussed within the Organising Committee," Salazar says Steiger. These projects are presented by the COP and the IPD. While there is some overlap, mostly differ (especially in terms of budget and elected spaces). Without the green light to the Master Plan, technical studies not start. No profiles are not tender or the work to private companies is offered.
3. Home for athletes
The Lima Villa Panamericana 2019 is another long discussion pending. "Not solved the place where it was built and who is going to do, state or private enterprise," said Arturo Woodman, former president of IPD and a member of Copal, if representing the Municipality of Lima.
There were three proposals (the barracks Hoyos Rubio Rimac, the Larco Herrera hospital and beating the sea coast of Callao), but none has met so far the competent authorities.
4. Lines of Communication
Transportation in Lima is chaos and Lima 2019 Pan American Games are the perfect opportunity to work in their favor. "In 2019 we will have 400,000 more cars. EMAPE and MTC are already working on a program to improve the lines of communication, "Woodman said.
And Lima 2019 website is done.

Surfing added to Lima 2019 Pan American Games programme

Surfing has been added to the programme for the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, it has been decided here today.

It will add to a line-up of 38 sports set to feature in the Peruvian capital, together with all 28 Summer Olympic sports and nine other disciplines currently on the Pan American Games programme.

These are baseball, bowling, karate, racquetball, artistic and speed events in roller sports, softball, squash and water skiing.

The news is a major boost for surfing following its selection as one of eight shortlisted sports for inclusion at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Both stand up paddle and big wave surfing have been proposed, with the Punta Rocas venue set to be the same one on which competition took place at last year’s World Surfing Games.

International Surfing Association (ISA) President Fernando Aguerre told insidethegames afterwards how he was excited and "very stoked" at the decision.

“Peru is a perfect location for surfing and has consistent high quality waves,” the official added, before reiterating the sport’s case for Olympic inclusion.

“We really believe surfing has a lot to contribute to the Movement.

“It embraces everything it stands for and is a true Olympic sport.”

He added that regular surfing and stand up paddle events have been proposed for Tokyo 2020, with an artificial wave pool set to be utilised for surfing due to the lack of natural waves in Japan at the time of the year the Games are held.

Stand up paddle racing does not require any additional venues, it was explained, since it could be held on any existing body of water, such as the Sea Forest International Regatta course proposed for rowing or canoe sprint action.
