OK as in morally or ethically OK? Absolutely not.
and hence, my whole point of raising what I raised over the years on "special treatment" CNT gets outside CTTA is,
1) if it gets taken away, would CNT still be "so perfect"
2) if JNT or France gets the same, would CNT still be so unbeatable.
then you come and bark about CNT deserves it because of money bs. You missing the point.
obviously the world is picking up and narrowing the gap
CNT is trying everything to maintain that gap, and it does disturb me that DF only made 9000 balls for ITTF to give to the participating members association and to be used officially at WTTC Durban 2023.
while CNT has themselves maybe has the same amount of balls, if not more, and way in advance too.
