It was a exciting final round with Sumant leading the tournament after 6 rounds. He had 5.5 points and met Kamaluddin Yusof who had 5 points. However Sumant lost and Kamaluddin wins the tourney.
I finished with only 3/7 but I expected it coming in without sleep
Full results later when I get it from the organisers.

There was two tournaments today in KL and I didn’t know which one to go to.
I didn’t plan to go to either as I spent another all nighter doing programming. I finished at 7 am and made the decision to take part in one of them.
There was the KLCA open and also the CAS tourney. In the end I went to the CAS tourney because I didn’t want to go thru th ehassle to describe to the taxi where the place was. I went there once but with my bad sense of direction I’d end up over paying for the taxi.
So CAS tourney at Wilayah it was.
Reality Bites hd I guess because of the clash of eveets the CAS only had 40 participants./
However my hopes for finishing top 10 were dashed as there were many strong players at thi event (definitely more than 10).
Anyway a self consoling fact (excuse) is that I’m here to enjoy myself.

It’s my first tourney of 2008!!
Started the first round getting into a losing position against Ismail Ahmad’s brother. Luckily he is just a beginner and I could recover and win from a lost position.
Second round I met none other the Stonemaster Fadli – me beging White. I sac a pawn to mess up the Stonemaster King side pawn but of course that cheap trick had no merit and I lost with no difficulty.
download Mogambo dvd Third round should be easier I thought. How wrong can you get !! My neext opponent was Ismail Ahmad himself.
He just lost his game in the second round to Ian Udani so I had to play him. As Black I used the Stonewall and lasted longer than the game against Fadli. Lost in the end when Ismail’s Rooks crashed thru and got to the seventh rank.

It’s rare stories like these that makes me proud of Malaysians:-

THOUGH she is visually impaired, Nur Feiqha Mohd Halil, 14, does not let her disability get in the way of what she loves — playing chess.
The student of English College, Johor Baru has been playing chess since she was nine years old.
Nur Feiqha’s early chess experience encompasses occasional matches with her brother using computer software. The coach at Princess Elizabeth Primary School in Johor Baru had recognised her talent and encouraged her to develop it.
“Since Princess Elizabeth Primary School is for the blind, we mostly played chess online. We also have a special chessboard for the blind.
“Half of the squares on this chessboard are raised for the blind to feel the location of the pieces,” says Nur Feiqha at the recent Masterskill/OCM National Age Group Chess Championship 2008 for youth held in OCM Sports Arena, Kuala Lumpur.
The event was supported by the Olympic Council of Malaysia. It was to select players for the Asean/ Asian & World level age group chess championships and was co-organised by Masterskill College of Nursing and Health (Masterskill) together with the Malaysian Chess Federation, Asean Chess Confederation and the Ministry of Education.
At the championship, Nur Feiqha was acknowledged for her talent by Masterskill president Datuk Seri Azureen Sultan Azlan Muhibbudin Shah.
Final Exam hd Nur Feiqha’s most unforgettable tournament was when she won two gold medals at the 4th Asean Para Games 2008 in Thailand. She received RM5,000 in the individual and group categories respectively.
“I am planning to buy a laptop with that money and use it to write poems, short stories, lyrics and play chess with JAWS, a popular screen reader which supports Braille.”
Some online chess games software can be used by visually-impaired users, because it can be fully controlled by the keyboard and has a voice feedback.
The user-friendly software gives Nur Feiqha the flexibility to download her favourite songs from the Internet.
A chess champion she may be but Nur Feiqha’s biggest challenge is to compete with normal students in her class.
She plans to be an author.

I came to KL in 1993 to work and the first thing that I looked for is chess clubs. Luckily KLCA was just reactivated and started to hold many weekend tournaments in the Russian Cosulate library in Jln Ampang. I had many memorable games there. Saw strong players like Mok and Peter Long drop by for the first time. I only read about them in chess columns. Names like Thaw Chee Yin (junior then), Vijay Raj, Mohan Raj and many others were regulars. It was also the first time I get to pit my ’small town’ chess skills with the KL boys. Those were fun times. Sadly after those weekend tourneys, the association just got inactive and faded away.
The latest news is KLCA is starting up again with activities and membership drive. Details here

Latest news in the newsletter is that Oliver Dimakiling may also be making the switch to Singapore also. Dimakiling is an International Master but definitely a strong GM contender with his good performances in past tournaments.

Singapore is definitely becoming a magnet for strong players. GM Zhang Zhong and his wife are two examples recent entries to the Singapore line up. Is it just money and Singapore living/working conditions?
Should Malaysia think about making it more attractive for strong foreign players to come over?
