Asian Continental Chess Championship

Isn’t the Asian Continental Chess Champion supposed to begin today (May 13, 2009) at 3:00pm in Subic?

I aired this question since I’ve been groping in the dark on where to find game pairings for Round 1.

Or perhaps, I’m just this stupid who’s not resourceful enough to find out where to go?

Ideally and by all logic, all the basic, the most updated, and the most detailed information about the event should emanate from the official website of the organizers.

Remember that this event is international – that is, not only the reputation of the organizers but more importantly the character of entire Philippine chess is at stake here.

The Philippines is the venue, oh please don’t forget it.

Remember that based on the chessdom.com’s list of participants, foreign players will come from different nations such as China, India, Kazakhstan, Iran, Vietnam, Qatar, Uzbekistan, Korea, Bangladesh, Mongolia, UAE, Indonesia, and Malaysia. At least, chess fans from these countries will be monitoring this event.

The official website of the main organizers of the tournament is the face of the Philippine chess.

And what kind of a face are we projecting to the whole world with just the dates, venue, and rules and regulations, and such information that we could offer?
