3rd GM Norm

Hey!

IM's Ronald Dableo and Wesley So are joining the 2nd President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo International Chess Tournament! At stake is the 3rd and last GM Norm for the two. Hoping Ronald gets it after a 6 month (?) NCFP suspension on allegations of game fixing. GM D-Lo did it, such a sweet revenge and an-in-your-face attitude will definitely bring the house down! For Wesley,I too wish he gets it!

Other familiar Pinoy names in the tournament includes GM Torre, GM Paragua and GM Antonio.

Interesting thoughts:

1. Website for the event?
2. Any gong or trumpets we can bang or blow to make aware the Philippines of this BIG EVENT?
3. NCFP Webpage?

Anyways, if you can't give me what I want, then I'd probably get it myself.

Also, there would be the Pichay Cup to be held from December 1-7 at the Bayview Park Hotel Manila.

Good luck! Two major tournaments to give chances for our players get their norms, titles and experiences, and be etched in Philippine Chess history as one of the greats!

Man, good luck!
