President´s welcome
Dr. Win Zaw
With the endless support that I have received, I would like to express that it is an honor for me to continue contributing in steering Myanmar Karate to even greater success for our country.
We live in an era that will become known as an historic time for Karate. Our art has not only been added to the list of Olympic Sports for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, but now the executive committee of our federation has evolved into a fully democratic institution.
Karate unites individuals of all dojo, regions, states, and countries regardless of race, gender, age or religion. Karate athletes who are training hard and diligently for competitions are not only becoming physically stronger and healthier, but are also strengthening the mutual friendship throughout Myanmar by promoting international goodwill through their art.
I can say with confidence that we can enhance the achievements of our country if we work as a team. We will bring our nation’s great accomplishments in Karate together with all other sporting categories under the guidance of Myanmar Olympic Committee and Ministry of Health and Sports. As a member of World Karate Federation (WKF), the Myanmar Karate Federation has taken great care to strictly follow and practice with pride, according to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Charter and WKF Constitution.
Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to the Honorary Presidents and members of the Executive Committee for their invaluable support. We all have to work hard and remain loyal to the values, sportsmanship and spirit of Karate. We will continue to relentlessly pursue our dream!
Dr. Win Zaw
President of Myanmar Karate Federation
