For the 32 players under Bishan Internal Grading System (2008), if we exclude the 6 graded players under SIXGA system, we still have 26 players with Bishan Grading Certificates, i.e. they are considered as no-grade players under the existing grading system of 象棋大师, 甲级棋士 and 乙级棋士.
Overheard two bishan players talking about to laminate their bishan grading cerficates with plastics, to show that they value the certificates although they know the bishan certificates have no official values.
This is also one of the reasons to motivate us to review the existing bishan grading system so that we could have an improved system for the 10th Anniversary Celebration.
