According to SET News on June 24, 2024, at 7:45 am reporters Chen Yixuan and Gu Yuansong reported that United Front tactics have infiltrated the sports sector! Strongman competitions, popular in foreign countries for activities like carrying sandbags and truck pulling, have gained popularity in Taiwan. However, Taiwanese athletes participating in the Hayate Silk Strongman Competition in China were forced to sign a clause adhering to the One China principle, including agreeing to abide by the Chinese Constitution and not undermine national unity. Violators face cancellation of rankings, fines, apology statements, and some have dropped out of the competition due to these terms. Some athletes have reluctantly complied to earn international points, causing dissatisfaction and political implications in what was supposed to be a simple sports competition.
