Chou of the Taipei Liaison Office in the RSA handed over 50 football shoes and 50 football balls to aid five local football clubs in the province of Limpopo through the help of the SM Legacy Sports Foundation and Mr. Solly Malatsi, Member of Parliament and National Spokesperson of the Democratic Alliance. The donation ceremony was held in Polokwane and more than 70 people attended to show support for this charitable act.
