In an effort to control the budget, Beijing halted construction work on several

In an effort to control the budget, Beijing halted(暂停) construction work on several venues(会场), including the high-tech National Stadium, last month.

"We stopped construction work mainly in order to make our design perfect so that we can reduce costs," said BOCOG'S Executive Vice President Liu Jingmin. "But the new design will not affect the basic functions of the stadium,"he added.
