Dear Journalists, As you may know, Yang Shu-Chun, a Taiwanese Taekwondo athlete, was accused of "cheating" and was disqualified while leading during a match on Tuesday (November 16th) in the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games. According to the Asian Taekwondo Union (ATU), Yang added additional sensors to the heels of her electronic socks in order to score more points, which violated the rules of competition and lost her qualification. However, the statement of ATU does not correspond to the video record. The following link is the video recording of the controversial match http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31IuoPWi9oE
We believe this record can help greatly on revealing the complete truth. From 2'10" to 2'35", you could see that per the organizer's request, Yang removed the sensors on her heels right after the pre-game inspection. Hence, Yang did not use unauthorized electronic socks during the formal competition. The sensors on the heels have been removed as required BEFORE the competition started, and there is no "cheating". Our question is, since no additional sensors (like ATU said) have ever been used in the formal competition, what is the reason to disqualify Yang? Truth speaks for itself, no matter how the organizer and ATU emphasized the correctness of the judgment in their Press Release. Taiwanese athlete did not cheat. Taiwan is never a country pursuing victory by cheating or playing tricks in competitions. . We are only looking forward to seeing fair and objective news coverage from you. Hope that the world can know the truth with your help, and give back the justice that Taiwanese should have. Thanks for your reading. Sincerely yours, Taiwan People -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 71.118.34.84
