第3届碧山杯全国象棋个人赛 and 第1届碧山杯全国选区象棋团体赛 The concern is less for 第3届碧山杯全国象棋个人赛 as we should have at least 40 players based on the figures in 2004 (26 -- Bishan East only) and 2006 (56 --Central Singapore only). The concern is more on 第1届碧山杯全国选区象棋团体赛 whether we have minimum of 10 teams as planned. There is quite a tight control using the address. 选区团体赛 for sports (basket ball, table tennis etc) have more tighter controls on addresses, i.e. staying within the constituency for at least one year. This is also one of the reasons for us not to include graded players for the coming event to avoid any misunderstanding. We may plan to invite some good players from primary schools, say the one 卷心菜 always talk about.... etc. We should know the actual situation on 31 Jan 2008 and whether we need to wait for another 35 years before someone trying again on 全国选区象棋团体赛..... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (more...)

Where is the Singapore Xiangqi Calendar ??????? 24 Feb 2008, while Pasir Ris East C.C. having 6-team friendly match for the CNY gathering, SIXGA is leading 60-player team to Kulai for 新柔百人赛. This is repeating the same historical problem happened in 2006 : while Bishan having 2006 华族文化节 Bishan Cup (19 & 26 Feb 2006) for Central Singapore 56-player, the 2006 新柔百人赛 was held on 19 Feb 2006 at Kaki Bukit. I have suggested previously that all xiangqi activities should be registered with SIXGA and priority should be given to the first activity registered with SIXGA. Hope we do not have the chance to see such thing happened again in 2010. !!!!
