Many in China regard the Olympics as the nation's coming-out party -- a milestone in its ascent as a global power.

Indeed.

Many in China regard the Olympics as the nation's coming-out party...

No doubt.
Given China's "one child per family" policy, selective sex abortion has created a country with a demographic imbalance of men unable to find wives.
That doesn't seem to embarass their exalted leaders as much as bad translation however.

"We cannot leave [these signs] up just for the amusement of foreigners," says Olive Wang...

She's got the perfect name to be the spokesperson for this.

I lived in China from 1993-1998 and reading the signs was one of the most entertaining things about living there. Any China hand would agree.

says Olive Wang, marketing manager for a major sportswear company.

Was her name shortened from Olive-colored Wang?

My first reaction to the thought of anyone going to the Olympics being held in Red CHina was 'Do you have a death wish?' But after reading about several point of interaction between muslims and the Reds, I think one should be perfectly safe. It appears that any muslim shennanigans are dealt with quickly, quietly, and fatally (for the muslims involved). Too bad we cannot summon up the stones to emulate this behaviuor.
