Ottawa, Ontario Canada

The President, Phap Lu, today issued the following statement to the mark the New 2023!

 Healthy, Peaceful and Successful CHITF!

We look forward to a new 2023! A New fresh year after the Pandemic- full of promise, health, hope and Joy!

The New Year of 2023 brings fresh CHITF revitalized goals and making most of them means finding unity, common ground and share our CHITF Platform UPHOLD mission.  In past 2022, together, each CHITF Leader made important progress in their respected regions for all CHITF Members, from trying very hard to revitalizing, hosting, participating, and supporting their regional CHITF events, to moving forward with co-operation and harmony with others.  This year we will focus and work side by side with the 2023 August 4-5  2nd CHITF World Championship host, CHITF Argentina for preparing another successful and memorable CHITF World event.   As we ring in 2023, let’s remember that this spirit of CHITF Leadership teamwork is what got us here today, and that it remains our path forward.

“In the coming year, our CHITF Leader Team will continue to focus on the issues that matter most to CHITF Members across the globe, from hosting more meaningful events, to upgrade our black belts instructors both technically and morally and strengthening the CHITF Leaders Leadership skills and positioning CHITF for success in an uncertain world.

“Let’s begin this next decade by recommitting ourselves to the TaeKwon-Do values of respect, discipline, honesty, taught by our beloved Founder General Choi Hong Hi, and our compassion that define us as CHITF Members.  By coming together as a CHITF Family and putting harmony first, we will build a more peaceful world.

“On behalf of CHITF, The CHITF Grand Masters, CHITF Management Team and I wish you and your loved ones a great New 2023!

See you all in August in Argentina!!!

Yours in CHITF,

SGM Phap Lu
