Introduction

Tour de Taiwan is a top-notch  professional road bicycle racing stage race held annually in Taiwan since 1978, as part of the UCI Asia Tour. It is also the biggest in Asia, being classed as a 2.1 category race for the first time in 2012.

Tour de Taiwan is an international cycling event in Taiwan, and they have agreed  to cooperate with TOEIC volunteers again for the 2015 race. The organizers have offered two positions seeking for student volunteers from Malaysia.
