According to the Hong Kong Sing Tao Daily, Huo Qigang issued a statement in the early morning of Wednesday (5th) to respond to rumors, saying that he has not planned to resign from the honor of the Bingxie Honorary President.Regardless of whether he holds the relevant position, it does not affect his concern and support for the development of Hong Kong ice and snow sports including ice hockey.
Huo Qigang said in the statement that he led the Hong Kong team as the head of the team in January 2020 to participate in the Lausanne Winter Olympic Games, and then was invited to be the Honorary President of the Hong Kong Ice Hockey Association."Generally speaking, honorary duties do not belong to the members of the Executive Committee, and will not directly participate in the actual affairs work. Although I have not directly participated in the Bingxie Association's work, I have always do their best to promote the development of the relevant campaigns on different platforms."
He continued: "At present, I have not planned to resign from the position of Honor President of the Ice Association, and whether or not they hold relevant positions or have the concern and support of Hong Kong's ice and snow sports including ice hockey sports."He said that the Executive Committee of the Bingxiao Association is expected to cooperate with the Hong Kong Association and the Olympic Committee to actively communicate to improve the corporate governance within the meeting.
The Hong Kong men's ice hockey team participated in the competition in Persia in February this year.The Hong Kong Association and the Olympic Committee questioned that there was a problem with the management of the Hong Kong Ice Hockey Association, and the procedures for the membership of the ice hockey association to stop the membership of the ice hockey association, until the Ice Association misused the national anthem incident to submit a complete written report.
