The MSSNM Melaka State Finals was held at Dewan S.K. Jasin in Jasin from Tuesday, 21st April till
Wednesday, 22nd April 2015. 6 rounds were played, players are required to make notations and 3
illegal moves losses a game (compared to just 2 moves normally).


Overall the event was well-organised over 2 days save for 2 arising issues.
The first issue involves information dissemination while the second deals with the clocks used for the competition.

After the Melaka Tengah competition in early April, it was announced that the State Finals will be held on Wednesday and Thursday, 22 - 23 April at the S.K.Jasin. However, partly due to PISA matters the organisers decided to bring the event a day forward. Unfortunately, a few schools namely the Boarding schools of MOZAC and KYS did NOT receive the information. Fortunately, KYS chess parents were aware of the date change and alerted the teacher in charge making it possible for the team to come earlier than the MOZAC team. Luck deserted the MOZAC team and by the time the players arrived for the first round, each player had less than a few minutes to play. All MOZAC players lost their first round game. I was informed on this matter by a parent who's kid is playing in the event.
