TV3 interview with The cHEss pIRATE @Summit



Had a bad flashback when "AMIR FAIZ bin AMIRUL" name was announced over the PA System...A FEW TIMES... at the Summit Shopping Complex in Subang. The incident occurred between Rounds 4 and 5 of the chess competition.

Was thinking - " What did he do this time??? " as He'd went "AWOL" at 1 Utama & 2 Hotels in previous years. After a frenzied search on the Ground Floor, I spotted him...with a TV Crew in attendance. Whew...what a relief!!!

The organiser and TV3 crew informed me that they are interviewing the CP by virtue of him being the YOUNGEST PARTICIPANT in the 1st SUMMIT JUNIORS Open competition.

Among the questions asked(in Malay) whilst the CP was standing on the Stage were:-
(1) What is Your Name?
(2) How Old Are You?
(3) Why Did You Play Chess - Interest, Somebody Taught You etc?
(4) Who Taught You to Play Chess?
(5) Have You Won Anything?

....all in the interview lasted 10-15minutes as I was also interviewed by the crew (sitting down on the stage) as well since CP was in a bad mood having lost a few games prior to the interview.
