Chinese Chess will not have a future in Singapore IF...1） the games continued to be played by Only Chinese Male. 2） And the team with the most 甲级/乙级 players will usually win... So predictable. The same type of games have been going on for years... nothing spectacular. The organizer from Raffles must think of a way out. 1) E.g. Make it mandatory for each team to have at least one girl and one non-Chinese. 2) Introduce some excitement into the game, e.g. each team will have one trump card. They can use the trump card once in the tournament to exclude one particular player from the opponent team (can only use once during the 2 days' tournament). 3) I am still thinking.... 3)
