Taipei:Taiwan's Jeffrey Koo Jr. was reelected president of the Baseball Federation of Asia (BFA) without objection at the federation's congress in Taipei. Representatives from 20 member associations participated in the event, as disclosed by the Chinese Taipei Baseball Association (CTBA).

According to Focus Taiwan, Koo's reelection maintains Taiwan's leadership role within the regional governing body, which is responsible for organizing international competitions and aiding its members in developing the sport through various initiatives. During Koo's first term, the BFA expanded to 29 member associations, with Vietnam, Jordan, and Syria joining.

Koo's leadership in his initial term saw the establishment of a baseball development and training center in Thailand and a women's baseball training base in Hangzhou, China. The federation also assisted member associations in hosting Asian tournaments and provided guidance on building or upgrading ballparks to meet international standards.

For his second term, Koo plans to train more players, coaches, and umpires, introduce certification in stages, and expand exchanges for student players. The BFA intends to continue holding women's competitions, with 13 members currently fielding women's teams. Koo also outlined a long-term goal of establishing an Asian major league, which would involve developing talent, expanding the fan base, and assessing viable competition formats.

Additionally, the congress decided to increase the number of elected executive committee seats from three to five to enhance regional representation. Representatives from Hong Kong, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines, and Thailand were elected to these positions.
