Is there any way to call or write to the chinese to suggest the sport of san shou, the chinese way of muay thai. I know the chances are slim but could any body here tell me where to go for it.

The Chinese have no control over what goes into the Olympics. You would have to write a letter to the IOC. The Olympics address is http://www.olympics.org, go there and see what you can find out.

Doesn't the hosting nation get to demonstrate a sport that's not part of the Olympics? Isn't that how Tae Kwon Do got put in, because of Seoul Olympics? Could be wrong though, never really watched the Olympics since none of the channels would show TKD or Judo.

The olympics, i think, is only good if you're into running and gymnastics. Cos that's all they ever show.

I don't think that they allow that. If you mail the IOC, they will be sure to give you all the information you need.
