And finally,

Billionaire Taiwan businessman Jeffrey Koo Jr. has been re-elected president
of the Baseball Federation of Asia.

He was re-elected without objection at the federation's congress in Taipei.

The Chinese Taipei Baseball Association says representatives from 20 member
associations attended the congress.

The federation has 29 member associations.

Koo's re-election keeps Taiwan in a leadership role in the regional governing
body, which organizes international competitions and helps its members
develop the sport through training, exchanges and support for facilities.

Under Koo's leadership the B-F-A has established a baseball development and
training center in Thailand and a women's baseball training base in China.

It also helped member associations host Asian tournaments and advised them on
building or upgrading ballparks to meet international standards.

Koo says he plans to train more players, coaches and umpires, introduce
certification for coaches and umpires in stages, and expand exchanges for
student players during his second term.
