On behalf of the Sarawak Taekwon-Do Association ITF and ITF Malaysia, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Master Francis Ting on your well-deserved promotion to 8th Dan Black Belt, officially conferred by ITF President, Prof. Grandmaster Ri Yong Son, during the Asian Taekwon-Do Federation Congress at Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
This prestigious promotion is a remarkable milestone that reflects your decades of unwavering dedication, exemplary leadership, and invaluable contributions to the growth and preservation of authentic ITF Taekwon-Do. Your commitment to upholding the true values and traditions of our martial art continues to inspire practitioners both in Malaysia and across the international ITF community.
It was a great honour and privilege for me to witness this historic occasion firsthand at the Asian Taekwon-Do Federation Congress. Seeing you receive this distinguished recognition from Prof. Grandmaster Ri Yong Song made the moment even more meaningful and memorable.
May this achievement serve as another stepping stone in your lifelong journey of excellence, as you continue to mentor, lead, and inspire future generations of Taekwon-Do practitioners with humility, wisdom, and integrity.
Congratulations once again, Master Francis Ting, on your promotion to 8th Dan Black Belt. Your achievement is a proud moment for ITF Sarawak, ITF Malaysia, and the entire International Taekwon-Do Federation family.
“The highest rank is not measured by the belt around one’s waist, but by the legacy one leaves in the hearts of students and the future of Taekwon-Do.”
Congratulations, Master Francis Ting!
