[Reporter Lu Yangxuan/Taipei Report] The Football Association held its 14th First Extraordinary General Meeting today, and at the same time re-elected the chairman, vice chairman and directors. In the end, the well-known architectural lighting designer Yao Rengong defeated the current chairman Zhang Can and became the new chairman.

Yao Rengongjin received 31 votes out of 46 group votes, while the current chairman Zhang Can only received 15 votes and was elected as the new chairman. A total of 5 vice-chairmen ran for election, and finally Wei Baosheng, Dai Xialing, and Wang Xiaoxun were elected.

Well-known architectural lighting designer Yao Rengong is running for this term's chairman and vice-chairmanship with Wei Baosheng, a veteran in the financial industry, hoping to give Taiwan football an opportunity to "brake and turn." Regarding the association's long-term financial problems, he said when announcing his candidacy that clear accounting recognition standards and financial management processes will be established, and earmarked funds and financial information disclosure will be implemented to ensure that all expenditures are systematically followed.

Zhang Can won the by-election for the 13th chairman at the end of December last year. He decided to run for office at the last minute. His achievements during his tenure included reducing the association's historical debt from 103 million yuan to more than 60 million yuan, implementing the budget system and physical write-offs, etc. However, he was not successfully re-elected.
