Regarding media reports that "Reserve sports meets have raised funds from reserve
coaching cadres", Reserve Command elaborated as follows today (18 th ):
1. A sports meets for reserve soldiers was held to enhance social exchanges among
counselors and organizations, and to establish a sporting atmosphere for reserve
soldiers. This initiative was started in 1970, but was suspended in 2019 due to the
pandemic.
2. Sine the pandemic has slowed, some county and city governments and reserve
counseling cadres suggested resuming the event. Command is still in discussion
stage, and it will cooperate with the county and city government if it proceeds to
hold the event. There has been no such request whatsoever to fundraise for the
event.
3. Reserve counseling cadres have assisted the Armed Forces in disaster prevention
and rescue, talent recruitment, mobilization and recall, and other related national
defense affairs for a long time. They have made outstanding contributions to the
country, and Command is most thankful for their efforts. As for subsequent matters,
Command will continue to strengthen contact service with them, and take advantage
of the opportunities to meet and debrief to avoid misunderstandings.
