During the holiday season when most of us are enjoying a break, TNZ President Grandmaster Tae Kyung Kim, and Senior Vice-President Grandmaster Han Hyoun Lee, have been on a goodwill visit to the WTF and Kukkiwon to further promote and develop opportunities for WTF Taekwondo in New Zealand. Positive and constructive meetings were held with WTF President Chung Won Choue, and Kukkiwon President Yong Gye Um along with many other WTF and Kukkiwon officials. TNZ's position as the interim governing body for WTF Taekwondo in New Zealand was confirmed and reiterated by the WTF President. Kukkiwon matters regarding the issuing of the Dan and Poom certificates will also be managed by TNZ. Further discussions were held regarding the development of education and competition programmes for New Zealand, including confirmation of TNZ's organisation of the selections for the Junior World Championships.
