dcro 10,179 Posted August 24, 2017 #344 Share Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) Commentators here were saying a couple of times that this is the biggest sporting event in Taipei history. And that made me think, I really cannot remember any remotely serious event that took place there (not even Olympic qualification tournament or even some Asian championships). And It's not like Taipei doesn't have resources, but I guess politics has A LOT to do with that fact.

Yeah, it is pretty hard to do Asian champs or Olympic qualification tournaments when China probably won't show up and will complain about it!
