Change Date for Commonwealth Chess Championship 2009 in Ipoh, Malaysia.


FM Peter Long sent and email to me regarding the change of date of the 2009 Commonwealth Chess Championship which will be held in Ipoh. Below are his email to me:-

"All, I have been informed our dates end too close to the Bristish Chess Championship so I have taken the liberty to move the dates back to 14-21 July 2009 which seem to also accommodate the Zonals in Vietnam and a big event that ends in Australian on 12 July. The revised prospectus is attached and has been emailed to member Federations"

Thanks Hairul, As you can see we always try and work with all organisers in a win win way. Also I think that you and your readers would be interested to know that locals who are KLCA members will be entitled to much lower entry fees and a special stay package to help them participate in this event!
