The week-long ASEAN+ Youth Team Chess Championships 2007 is supported and sponsored by Masterskill College
of Nursing & Health together with the Education Ministry.

An allocation of RM100,000 has been set aside for the sponsorship programme to introduce scholastic chess in schools.

Something interesting to further read about Edmund Santhara, Masterskill College of Nursing & Health CEO,
is also an avid fan of chess (even the College boardroom has chess sets). He also played in the very first Malaysian Open. I will dig up his games later to view   :-

CEO to turn MASTERSKILL into global training centre http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2007/10/15/business/19034269&sec=business

He was recently named as Malaysia’s Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of The Year 2007. He will represent Malaysia at the world award event at Monte Carlo in May 2008.

The photos of his drawn opening game against Florencio Campomanes is also available at NWM Khairunnisa’s blog

Sydney White full movie Snakes on a Plane dvd Chess is not really supported as a sport even at national level as from our very own National Sports Council(NSC) director general, Datuk Zolkples Embong recently commented about the Sea Games Federation (SGF):-

“The SGF need to sit down and look at promoting sports which can improve the chances of the countries in the region to compete at a higher level. For the good of sports in the region, there is no need for sports like fin swimming, shuttlecock kicking and chess to be introduced,” said Zolkples.

Into the Blue divx Someone reminded me that there are Malaysians taking part in the Challengers section in Singapore too. Sorry. Forgot about that. Looking at the results, our own Mohd Izz Saifuddin is doing pretty well at 4/4. However he lost in his 5th round to Indonesian Kaisar Jenius Hakiki in the 5th round. Nevertheless he is still among the leaders of the tournament.
