The Chinese Taipei delegation participating in the 19th Asian Games said that they were deeply touched by the warmth and kindness of local people, which made them feel “at home”.
In the women’s semi-final of kabaddi, Chinese Taipei beat Iran, securing a score of 35 to 24 to get a spot in the final. This achievement went beyond its previous best record of a bronze medal at the 2018 Asian Games.
In a post-match interview, Feng Hsiu-chen of Chinese Taipei’s kabaddi women’s team said that the exciting cheers from the audience left her with “a feeling of being at home”. “While competing, I could hear the cheers and calls of support from the stands,” Feng said. “Hearing the crowd encouraged me to persevere and never give up during the match.”
Another kabaddi athlete, Hu Yu-chen, expressed deep gratitude for the enthusiastic local fans cheering them on. “Having the crowd firmly in our corner provided enormous motivation,” Hu said, adding that her team was encouraged by the lively encouragement throughout the match.
Chinese Taipei gymnast Lee Chih-kai, who took gold in the men’s pommel horse, expressed his gratitude for the support. “I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for the audience’s continued cheering.”
Chinese Taipei table tennis player Chen Szu-Yu, who competed in a women’s doubles match, told the journalist that the local stadium is more spacious than where she had played before, allowing for a larger number of audience. The enthusiastic crowd created a really heated atmosphere, Chen said.
Hsiao Shu-feng, a sports researcher with the Chinese Taipei delegation, said that everyone she encountered, from volunteers to staff members and local residents, displayed a remarkable politeness. “Their warmth left a lasting impression on me,” Hsiao said.
Sun Jie, a 40-year-old science teacher from Xiaoshan, Zhejiang province, said he has been a long-time fan of Chinese Taipei’s kabaddi due to its past achievements in this sport and hoped “They can feel the support of their compatriots (同胞) for them.”

The opening ceremony for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games was held at the Olympic Stadium in Tokyo on July 23, 2021 after a year of waiting due to the pandemic. Let's take a look at the highlights which make this opening ceremony unique.
No spectators
There are no spectators during the opening ceremony in an effort to prevent the spread of the coronavirus infections. About 950 people, including officials and journalists, will watch in the main stadium, organizers said. Fewer athletes are expected to attend the ceremony because many are not allowed to stay for the entire Games due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Male and female flag-bearers
The International Olympic Committee has actively encouraged all delegations to select two flag-bearers at the opening ceremony, including one woman, as women's participation in the Tokyo Games reaches 48.8 percent, making it the most gender-balanced Olympics in the history of the event.
Oath (宣誓) session updated
One of the most symbolic parts of the opening ceremony—the Olympic oath—has been significantly adapted in order to “highlight the importance of solidarity, inclusion, non-discrimination and equality”. The number of oath-takers is also extended from three to six—two athletes, two coaches and two judges.
Simplified ceremony
In the 30-second video showing the rehearsal of the opening ceremony released to the public, the performances are integrated with dances, scenery and other display elements used in Japanese traditional festival activities.
In order to prevent and control the COVID-19 pandemic and manage the cost, the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee said that the performances of the ceremony will be greatly simplified, with more light and shadow technology used instead of real decorations at the scene.
