A Taiwanese delegation will depart for Seoul Friday to attend a meeting of the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) disciplinary committee on an Asian Games disqualification dispute involving one of Taiwan's top competitors. Among the delegation members is Yang Shu-chun, who was disqualified from the women's under 49-kilogram division in the taekwondo competition at the Asiad in Guangzhou, China on Nov. 17 for allegedly wearing extra sensors in her socks in an attempt to score more points. Yang will be accompanied by Chinese Taipei Taekwondo Association (CTTA) President Chen Chien-ping and her two coaches, Liu Ching-wen and Liu Tsung-ta, CTTA Secretary-General Ho Feng-yen said Monday. 'They will attend a WTF disciplinary committee meeting scheduled for Dec. 18 and present written testimony in hopes of getting a fair solution to the dispute, ' Ho said, adding that the delegation will return to Taipei that same day. The 25-year-old athlete, who was one Taiwan's top hopes for a gold medal at the Asiad, was disqualified during her opening bout for using the extra sensors, according to taekwondo officials. Video footage of the match released later showed, however, that Yang was not wearing the sensors during the bout. Inconsistent explanations by WTF and Asian Taekwondo Union (ATU) officials of why Yang was disqualified have added to the controversy. Taiwan filed a protest over the decision with the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) but also vowed to take the case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport if other appeals failed to provide a satisfactory outcome. The Sports Affairs Council (SAC) commissioned the law firm Lee and Li Attorneys- at-Law to file an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) on Dec. 8 for Yang's controversial dismissal. SAC Vice Minister Steven S. K. Chen said last Friday that Taiwan could withdraw the arbitration appeal if the WTF issues an acceptable statement after its Dec. 18 meeting. Major South Korean newspapers have prominently covered the disqualification row, which they said has stalked anti-Korean sentiment among ordinary Taiwanese people. The sentiment was exacerbated by reports over the weekend that Korean electronics company Samsung provided evidence in the European Union's price- fixing probe against four Taiwanese display panel makers that led to stiff fines against them. Samsung, the world's largest flat panel maker, was also allegedly part of the price-fixing cartel and may have even led the group, but because it tipped off authorities in Europe to the behavior, it was not disciplined in the case. The Korean news agency Yonhap said in an editorial Friday that Taiwan's anti- Korean sentiment could pose a diplomatic crisis for South Korea. It urged the Korean government to consider how to maintain friendly ties with Taiwan in the wake of these incidents.
