Young Pinoy chess stars on TV

The Mel & Joey talkshow of GMA 7 featured last night (July 19) the recent successful international campaigns of 6-year old Stephen Rome Pangilinan and 14-year old Cherry Anne Mejia.


The interview zoomed in on Pangilinan’s victory in GM Susan Polgar’s Under 8 competition in the US and on Mejia’s conquest of the 10th ASEAN Age-Group Championships in Vietnam.

It’s really refreshing to hear inspirational stories especially about the heroic accounts of our dear kids.

Do you believe that inspirational stories can move people, and even contribute to social change for the better?
