(Central News Agency reporter Chen Jung-chen, Taipei 21st) Associate Professor Weng Shih-hang of National Taiwan Normal University's Department of Athletic Performance was accused of bullying today. Former protégé and Paris Olympic bronze medalist Tang Chia-hung stated that their cooperation had already ended, and since he is not a party to the incident, it is inconvenient for him to comment further.
The Humanistic Education Foundation, along with several Democratic Progressive Party legislators, held a press conference today at the Legislative Yuan, accusing Weng Shih-hang and assistant coach Mai Liu Hsiang-han of bullying students. They alleged that Weng Shih-hang used his coaching authority to demand matters unrelated to training, while Mai Liu Hsiang-han was involved in slapping young students and forcing them to stand on their heads for 2 hours, causing severe eye swelling.
Tang Chia-hung, Weng Shih-hang's former protégé and Paris Olympic men's horizontal bar bronze medalist, stated through his agent that after achieving his phased goal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, in pursuit of further breakthroughs, he has ended his cooperation with Weng Shih-hang and returned to the Kaohsiung National Training Center. He is currently being guided and coached by Huang Po-jui.
Tang Chia-hung mentioned that since the entire case has entered the investigation process and he is not a party to the incident, it is inconvenient for him to comment further. "I only hope that in the future, whether in the gymnastics training environment or in talent cultivation, things can continue to develop in a better direction."
Weng Shih-hang has personally held a press conference to explain that there was absolutely no bullying behavior. The case has now entered legal relief and investigation procedures, and he hopes that the Ministry of Education's relevant investigations will clarify the actual situation.
