Taken from the Minutes of the Executive Council Meeting in Tokyo,
Japan:

"Vice President William Hybel and Vice President Sang Lee made a
presentation on their project to establish Yungok (pseudonym of Dr.
Kim) Foundation in the States. Delegates from the States handed out
the introductory document of the Foundation to all the Council
members and explained about the purpose, implementation and goals of
the body." (We would like to see more details on how this affects
the
USTU membership, please)


"As another topic, the delegate from USTU made a proposal to
resume
Dr. Kim Cup Taekwondo Competition, 1st one of which was held in
England three years ago….. According to him, the Competition
would be
held in Colorado Springs, USA from May 12 to 19, 2003 and the
Organizing Committee would cover all of the local costs for the
participating teams from the moment of their arrival at Colorado
Springs. The Council advised the delegate to send their proposal
along with the draft competition rules to the Technical Committee as
a matter of administrative procedure so that the Committee would
review and recommend it to the Executive Council when considered
effective. The proposal was rejected." (This was presented at the
BOG
like it was going to happen, why!)

Meeting in Toyko, the items in italics are those of the person asking
the questions.

I have been told that the minutes of meeting were amended to show the
Dr. Kim Cup passing.
