Organizers of the 2017 Summer Universiade vowed to make the student games successful as a doorway for Taiwan to host the 2024 Summer Olympic Games.
Hsu Chuan-hao, leader of the 2017 Summer Universiade Organizing Committee, told CNA that “based on endless hard work as well as experience learned and to be learned from others, Taiwan is ready to face the challenge”.
In 2011, President Ma Ying-jeou, said that the country’s next goal is to bid for the Olympics in 2024.
