Taipei, Oct. 15 (CNA) The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will organize a game of

The Diplomatic Woodball Friendship Tournament, slated for Oct. 31 in Taipei, is aimed at facilitating sports exchanges and promoting the sport, said Shen Wen-chiang (沈文強), deputy director-general of the ministry’s Department of NGO International Affairs, at a news briefing.
