These basically are two separate issues. Sadly due to a previous lacks of communication some people like to link two things that don't have any real relevance. Master Ah Po stepped down a year ago. Master Yong Ki Hong just recently (within the last few months) has showed some interest in rejoining. The timing is basically Master Hong's, not Masters Hwang nor Ahpo. It would be, I think, a good thing to see someone of his stature come back to the organization and maybe he will pave the way for others. I seriously don't think that there would be an instant promotion or Tac or Sac position for him as soon as he comes back. Master Hong is a VERY talented person whom in time can be a very valuable asset. But the timing issue is as relevant as a twinkie to a tiger.
