Overall, as per last week's 18th Kepong Juniors Open - the cHEss pIRATE played true to form I.e. He won against lower rated players and lost to higher rated players. Thus, No Surprises! CP's official classification is 35th out of 71 players in the U-10 category with 3 Wins & 3 Losses...a 50% winning record.(Note: The highest placed 3-pointer, finished 27th).

Remarks: Between R4 & R5, a TV3 crew interviewed the CP by virtue of him being the Youngest Participant in the event.

WOMEN's Open Debating Championship 2012 (WODC2012) @UiTM, Shah Alam

Amira Fathina is taking part in the WODC 2012 at UiTM, Shah Alam starting from today till Sunday, 11 November 2012. What is different from the normal debate competition she participates in is that as the event name suggests - it is a WOMEN's ONlY competition.

After participating in the 1st ASEAN Educational Debate Challenge in Chiangmai-Thailand, last August...this event should be a walk in the park for her.

All the Best Amira Fathina and do Carry On the Family's debating traditions.
