An Open Letter to the NCFP

Dear NCFP officials:

Our beloved Philippines will be hosting two major international chess tournaments namely, the 2008 PGMA Cup and the 4th Pichay Cup International chess championship – with you, NCFP, as the lead.

The world, through the power of the Internet, will be watching us, thanks to these events.

Current technological trends in world-class chess tournaments show that for the chess enthusiasts worldwide to enjoy those events, some technological SOPs must be provided.

Here are the wish lists:
1. Live transmissions of games online (top boards) and in the venue as well (through projection screens)
2. Fast and complete postings of results online
3. Fast and complete postings of games online in PGN format

Holding of these events will surely reflect a picture of our beloved country for the whole world to see.

Will you please make it a pleasant and enjoyable experience this time?

Thank you very much.

Truly yours,
Members of the Malibay Chess Club
