This is an absolute first ...
6 time World Table Tennis Champion and a gold medallist in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, Jan Ove Waldner becomes the first living foreigner to appear on a Chinese postage stamp.
For a country like China, this is a step away from their usual steadfast and inward looking approach, on the sporting front.
The Chinese Wall has been breached.
Just goes to show that sports can break any boundary, any wall and over come any obstacles.
