Taiwan welcomed its returning Olympic athletes in a grand ceremony on Tuesday (August 13), with three fighter jets escorting the plane carrying them.
They were the last batch of athletes to return to the island and included Lin Yu-ting, one of two boxers at the heart of a gender dispute at the Paris Games. Lin became Taiwan’s first gold medalist in boxing.
The 28-year-old thanked supporters upon arrival at Taoyuan International Airport.
Taiwan won seven medals, including two golds, in its best performance since participating in the Games.
