The Zhongnan University of Economics and Law (ZUEL) in China is proud to officially announce its association with the WBE/USBC Asia Pacific Boxing Association and plans to make history by hosting the first "Asia Pacific Professional Boxing Training Course" on April 23-29 at the Zhongnan University of Economics and Law (ZUEL), Wuhan City of the People's Republic of China. This training course is operating by the Chairman of the Membership Committee of WBE/USBC Asia Pacific Boxing Association, Mr Qing Hua Wang together with the authorized representative Mr Liao Si Ping of ZUEL's Adult Education College.
The purposes of the training course are to train and enlist eligible professional boxing promoters, managers, ring officials, ringside physicians and trainers for Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Chinese Taipei, making them effective at protecting and ensuring the safety and welfare of Chinese boxers and implementing safety measures for the development of the sport of Chinese boxing in general.
The course is intended to expand the development of professional boxing in the Asia Pacific region; to encourage more qualified Chinese promoters, managers, ring officials, ringside physicians, trainers and enthusiasts of professional boxing to work under the aegis of WBE/USBC Asia Pacific Boxing Association and together make the WBE/USBC Asia Pacific Boxing Association a stronger, more powerful, more prestigious regional boxing governing body.
The parties discussed the development plan of WBE/USBC Asia Pacific Boxing Association in China. The WBE/USBC Asia Pacific Boxing Association Chairman/Director David Young happily stated, "We would like to support and assist the ZUEL's Adult Education College to develop the professional boxing industry of China. I believe that the future of the Chinese professional boxing sport should attain similar success as the Ping-Pong sport of China. I'm looking forward to see the ZUEL Adult Education College become a successful pioneer of the professional boxing of China."
For its part, ZUEL's Adult Education College President, Mr.Xie Jin Cheng said, "We would like to assist in the development of professional boxing in China and to always cooperate with the WBE/USBC Asia Pacific Boxing Association in China. Together, we make Chinese professional boxing gain a huge success. The ZUEL is a higher learning institution under the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China with economics, law and management as its core disciplines. This is its unique feature in China, coordinated with the development of eight other disciplines including literature, history, philosophy and engineering, etc. So we believe that ZUEL will guide the health development of the professional boxing of China."
One key towards realizing this ambitious objective is to ignite the latent love for boxing in such places as Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Chinese Taipei, and such countries where professional boxing is still asleep. This interest for boxing is now being kindled in these places by the Zhongnan University of Economics and Law (ZUEL) of China.
