At the Singapore National Olympic Council Annual General Meeting held on Monday 1 July 2013 at Grand Roxy Mercure Hotel, Mr Milan Kwee, STF President, was re-elected as a
Council Member for another term.
Together with Ms Jessie Phua (Singapore Bowling Federation) and Mr Nicholas Fang (Fencing
Singapore), Mr Kwee was returned unopposed. It was reflection of the confidence that the other national sports
association representatives at the meeting had in him.
With the re-election, Mr Kwee remained the first and only representative from a martial
arts organization to sit on the august committee.
The taekwondo community is certainly proud of his achievement.
