134 delegates of the Chinese Taipei have left for the Tokyo Olympics in Japan this afternoon. But the latest news of positive COVID-19 cases detected on 3 South African footballers have worried some athletes and their families. Despite the safety concern, the contestants still shoulder the high hopes of winning medals for Taiwan. Premier Su Tseng-chang, the Minister without Portfolio Audrey Tang, along with other government officials showed up to bid farewell to the athletes.


“The Chinese Taipei delegation team has left the "bubble zone" in Zuoying early in the morning.”

134 members of the Chinese Taipei delegation team woke up early on July 19 and left the National Sports Training Center (NSTC) in Kaohsiung for Songshan Airport. They took the High Speed Railway to Taipei and then got on to shuttle buses before finally arrived their destination.

Weightlifting contestants Kuo Hsing-Chun, badminton contestant Dai Ziying and gymnast Lee Chih Kai, were the most prominent athletes among all delegates. They waited in line to have their luggage disinfected before check-in. 

Swimmer Wang Kuan-Hung takes pictures with his family while maintaining social distancing. The latest news of COVID-19 cases in South Africa's football team did worry his father.

Lee Wei-kun, Swimming Contestant Wang Kuan-hung's Father:”I heard in the news that members of the South Africa soccer team were being infected with the virus. But the Chinese Taipei team should be staying at a different dormitory.”

Despite the safety concern, the contestants still shoulder the high hopes of winning medals for Taiwan. Premier Su Tseng-chang, the Minister without Portfolio Audrey Tang, along with other government officials showed up to bid farewell to the athletes.

Su Tseng-chang, Premier of Republic of China:”On behalf of the government and fellow nationals, I wish all of you to show your best and achieve the best results.”

Delegation Takes Chater Fight to the Tokyo Olympics

 

 

前進東京奧運的我國代表團選手郭婞淳、戴資穎、李智凱等134位團員,今天下午1點,將從台北松山機場,包機前往日本,進行最後備戰!不過中央社報導,東奧選手村累計有3名南非男子足球隊的成員確診,上午有陪同送機的家人表示,現在最牽掛的還是當地疫情。

「今天中華代表團是起了大早,一大早就離開了左營泡泡園區。」

東奧我國代表團134位成員,19號起了大早,從高雄左營的國訓中心,包艙兩節高鐵專屬車廂,再搭乘專車抵達松山機場。

選手們的行李一一消毒、整裝待發,舉重選手郭婞淳、羽球選手戴資穎、體操選手李智凱等人,一一現身機場大廳,帶著護照完成報到程序。

游泳選手王冠閎隔著防疫紅線,和家人合影。根據中央社報導,東京選手村已累計3名南非男子足球隊成員確診,王冠閎父親掛念的不只是兒子的參賽成績,更擔心當地疫情帶來的風險。

游泳選手王冠閎父親 李尉坤:「確診當然是有聽到這個消息。只是應該跟南非那邊的選手,應該是(住在)不同的棟。」

儘管心情忐忑,選手們仍背負著為國爭金奪牌的厚望,上午11點行政院長蘇貞昌,和取消赴日行程的政務委員唐鳳等官員親自送機。

行政院長 蘇貞昌:「我特別代表政府,代表國人同胞,期待各位,盡最大的努力,得最好的成績。」

掃描護照、準備入關,華航包機將於下午1點出發,正式前進東京奧運!
