[Reporter Liao Xueru/Hsinchu Report] The Taekwondo sparring event of the 2012 National Secondary School Games started today at the Hsinchu County Gymnasium. There were only 5 matches. That is, due to the electronic device sensing problem, the entire event was postponed to 4 p.m. At 30 points, the rematch has just begun. Since today's schedule is about 200 matches in 7 weight classes in the middle school group, it is estimated that it will not end until 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.

Facing the postponement, the participating teams had no choice but to continue practicing and try to maintain their physical strength.

However, there were also coaches who protested at the scene, worried that the postponement of the game would affect the performance and results of the players.

Hsinchu County Mayor Yang Wenke came to the scene again in the afternoon to understand. He said that due to the interference of unknown factors, the signal was abnormal. Feel sorry!

Yang Junci, Director of the Secretariat of the Executive Committee, said that for the postponement, the conference will provide dinner and snacks to the participating teams; the follow-up daily schedule will invite telecommunications police to station to avoid similar problems from happening again.

The Executive Committee of the National Games stated that after the taekwondo sparring competition was announced at 9 o'clock this morning, the fourth field began to have sensor problems with electronic equipment.

However, there were similar situations in the third venue and the second venue in the follow-up, and the conference immediately carried out the electronic equipment inspection of the entire venue to ensure the integrity and fairness of the competition.

After repeated inspections and tests, the conference turned off the original 5G signal in the venue to eliminate the impact of the wireless network, and also notified the telecommunications police to come to the scene for inspection to confirm whether there was intentional interference with the signal, but so far the exact reason has not been found out.
