congratulations to the 2008 Iranian Taekwando team. The men's team became Asian champions, for the first time unseating South Korea's 38-year domination of the sport. The women's team came in fourth with one gold and one bronze.

This is quite an achievement especially since the competition was held in the center of Martial Arts.

We should really be proud of our Athletes.

With all the limitations they face at home, they still work so hard and achieve so much.

Congratulations to all our brave young Athletes.
