The recent Paris Olympics has just passed and may already be fading into memory. This year Team Taiwan won 2 gold medals and 5 bronze at the Olympics. Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/my-conversation-with-mike-chinoy-award-winning-journalist-on-his-new-film-decathalon-ep-290/ Do you know when and who won Taiwan's first Olympic medal? It happened at the 1960 Rome Olympics, which was the first Summer Olympics that was televised in North America. The man who was known as the “Iron Man of Asia,” C.K. Yang won a silver medal in the decathlon. C.K. was of the Amis indigenous tribe from southeastern Taiwan. His Amis name was Maysang Kalimud, but then Japan colonized Taiwan he had a Japanese name when, and then after the Chinese Nationalists the Kuomintang lost the civil war in China to the Chinese Communist and fled to Taiwan, his father gave him a Chinese name, Yang Chuan-kwang.  Like many Amis, he used his athletic prowess to gain status and success that might otherwise have eluded him. But not much is known about how heavily he identified as Amis.   The gold medal winner at the Rome Olympics was Rafer Johnson, an African American.   Rafer and C.K. trained together under the same coach at UCLA and then competed against each other in the decathlon at the Rome Olympics. They were not only rivals but also the best of friends.   Their extraordinary and unlikely friendship inspired the making of a documentary film and I sat down recently to speak with Mike Chinoy, the co-creator, co-writer, and co-producer of that film which is called "Decathlon: The CK Yang and Rafer Johnson Story,”   Mike Chinoy is a Non-Resident Senior Fellow at the University of Southern California's US-China Institute and is based in Taipei. Previously, he spent 24 years as a foreign correspondent for CNN, serving as the network's first Beijing bureau chief and as Senior Asia Correspondent.   "Decathlon: The CK Yang and Rafer Johnson Story" is currently streaming on the Taiwan Plus Docs YouTube channel.   Here's a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode: ·       Team Taiwan's performance during the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris ·       How flags and signs in the shape of Taiwan or with the word Taiwan on them were confiscated from fans during the men's doubles badminton finals at the Paris Olympics ·       How China's state-run broadcaster CCTV cut the feed during parts of the men's badminton doubles match and did not broadcast the medal ceremony ·       Why Taiwan has to compete under the name “Chinese Taipei” at the Olympics ·       The “Iron Man of Asia” ·       The man that won Taiwan's first Olympic medal ·       C.K.

A connection to Taekwondo, allowed Roman Abasy to achieve his dream of representing Afghanistan on the world stage, winning a bronze medal at the 2014 Asian Games. But the fall of Kabul to the Taliban in August 2021, would take his life in a different direction. His post-athlete work involved dedicating himself to human rights advocacy, founding a charity to help promote access to sports, particularly for young women. That work made him a target of the Taliban - and with the help of the Australian Olympic Committee, he resettled in Australia as a refugee. Three years on, he has returned to helping improve access to sports at the grassroots level for refugees and migrants. He spoke with Biwa Kwan about his journey - and the power of sport to help refugees succeed.

Did you know we once went to the Olympics under the name “Formosa”?    At the upcoming 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, Taiwan will once again compete under the ridiculous name of “Chinese Taipei.” It's a silly name that makes little sense... even if you are the PRC. Is there another Taipei that isn't Chinese?   And, actually, we train our athletes in Kaohsiung, plus a good number of them are Indigenous people – so literally, they are NOT Chinese.   But most here feel participation is more important than names, and many also feel the world sees through these dumb attempts by Beijing to cover up the reality of Taiwan's existence as a country.    This week: the story of Taiwan's participation in the Olympics and Asian Games, and the name changes along the way.    Good luck to the “Formosan Kaohsiung” team in Paris this year!!

North Korea's ruling party daily the Rodong Sinmun weighed in on the conflict between Israel and Hamas, blaming the violence on Israel's “ceaseless criminal acts” without mentioning the Palestinian military group's deadly attacks on the country. North Korean athletes saw success, as well as controversy, at the Asian Games in September and October. The women's soccer team enjoyed victory over what it described as South Korean “puppets” before losing to Japan in the final, while the men's team tried to shove the referee after also losing to Japan. The NK News team joins the podcast to take a look back at these stories and others that made headlines in the last month, from South Korea's controversial new defense minister to talk about greater cryptocurrency cooperation between North Korea and Russia. This week's episode features the following members of the NK News team: Analyst James Fretwell (@JamesFretwe11) Lead Correspondent Jeongmin Kim (@jeongminnkim) Correspondent Shreyas Reddy (@shreyas_k_reddy) About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot (@JaccoZed) exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.

Steve and George discuss the just-concluded Asian Games and this week's IOC meeting, which will be deciding the future of Olympic compound.

Dramatic turns of events as Kevin McCarthy lost a motion put forward by a member of his own Republican Party. Also: A bus has plunged off a bridge near Venice killing at least twenty one people, and why two athletes at the Asian Games fell foul of Chinese censorship rules over the Tiananmen Square massacre.

Happy Fall!It's a new season but the same ol' song: Women are still fighting unequal systems within and outside of sports.So on today's episode of The GIST of It, co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz first chat about the Afghan women's national volleyball team, who compete in defiance of the country's Taliban rule and are currently speaking out about dismal training conditions at the Asian Games. Then after the break, the gals give flowers to a women's soccer and activist GOAT: the USWNT's Megan Rapinoe, who hung up her international boots over the weekend, leaving both a massive hole in the team and an even bigger off-pitch legacy. And while no one can truly fill her cleats, El and Steph kick around a few thoughts about the future of the USWNT. LFG.
