WTF reform

Korea -- Choue Chung-won, the president of taekwondo's world governing body, said Wednesday he will complete full-fledged reform of the global body by this month, including recruiting foreign employees.

"Reform is the only way for the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) to survive, and without change the WTF has no meaning to its existence. With sweeping organizational changes, the body will soon embark on a new start," Choue said in a news conference in the body's headquarters in Seoul.

"I will transform the WTF in a drastic way and put more internationally minded and professional staff into the secretariat to make the WTF a truly global sports federation, helping taekwondo retain its Olympic status for good," Choue said.
