The World Table Tennis Federation publicly apologized for the timing of the Fukuoka Finals ticket opening. However, Chinese netizens did not buy it because this was not the first time they had committed a similar incident.

On the morning of September 15th, wtt announced that the ticket opening date for the Fukuoka Finals will be 10 a.m. on September 18. Every year at 10 a.m. on September 18, air raid sirens will sound across the country to remind the Chinese people not to forget national humiliation. The World Table Tennis Federation chose this date and time to sell tickets for the Japanese match, which naturally caused dissatisfaction among the majority of Chinese netizens.

In response, the World Table Tennis Federation apologized, saying that it was because the international competition department and foreign leaders did not understand the background of the date. WTT has a zero-tolerance attitude towards any behavior that hurts the feelings of the Chinese people. However, no one bought it at all.

Some netizens angrily said: "You have begun to challenge the country's bottom line.", and another netizen said: "I don't understand but you can choose this day accurately, it is difficult not to say that you did it on purpose?"

Another netizen said: " Don't make excuses for yourself. Did your competition department set the invoicing date by itself? Don't you need to report it to the director? "What do you think it is? It's a sensitive issue for fans. You think it's just that the fans are too sensitive." ? Grab tickets at 10 o'clock on September 18, Fukuoka, Japan; 918 time, whistle at 10 o'clock, please come out and explain? "

A netizen pointed out: "From the issue of the Chinese Taipei flag twice, to July 7 I posted a message to congratulate Japanese athlete Hayata Hina on her birthday, and then announced the ticket on September 18. As an official organization, wtt has repeatedly provoked back and forth on sensitive issues. I want to ask wtt what is the intention of this netizen

? The "Chinese Taipei flag issue" refers to the two incorrect use of the flag of Chinese Taipei by the Qatar Table Tennis Association and the Tunisian Table Tennis Association in competitions in 2022. The World Table Tennis Federation's apology was very perfunctory. Both times it was said that the other party "assured wtt World Table Tennis Federation "Similar situations will not happen again in the future", and the statement used "Chinese Taipei" instead of Chinese Taipei, which caused strong dissatisfaction among netizens. Even now, they still ignore the protests and dissatisfaction of netizens and still use "Chinese Taipei" Taipei".
