According to local reports, Chou was elected chair in this vote. As the former leadership stepped back to become honorary chair and leadership changed hands, the election of a female chair was received inside and outside the association as a symbolic shift.

Chou is regarded as strong in mobilizing resources and running organizations. Because baseball administration is a field requiring broad coordination — running the national team, entering international tournaments and supporting the domestic league — the new chair's practical capacity is counted as the task ahead.

In Taiwan, baseball is a sport of national popularity and a window that showcases Taiwan on the international stage. The change of association leadership is intertwined with mid- to long-term tasks such as preparing the national team for international events and developing youth players.

Hwagyo Sibo reports changes in sports administration in the context of the development of the organization and the sport rather than a figure's political background. The arrival of a first female chair is a scene showing diversity and leadership change in Taiwan's sports world.
