Here are some of the photos taken during the last Asean Para Games in KL. I would like to apologize to some of the players and coaches for delays in uploading the photos. I would like to convey my deepest thanks to En Abdul Latif aka Sifu for giving me the opportunity to be part of the Dream Team. It did really give me a good experience coaching OKU players.

Salam Aidilfitri Buat Semua Pengunjung Blog ini,

Jika ada siang, pasti ada malam
Jika ada hitam, pasti ada putih
Jika ada kesalahan, pasti ada maaf

Dalam perjalanan hidup ini kita sempat bertemu
Kemudian berpisah seiring dengan waktu
Bila selama kita seiring jalan ada seteru
Saya hulur maaf dan keredhaan untuk itu

Ampun dan maaf andainya
TERkasar bahasa
TERsilap bicara
TERmarah yang tak kena
TERtanya tak tentu hala
TERsasul yang tak sengaja
TERpukul kat mana mana
TERpinjam harta benda
TERumpat bila bila
TERmacam macam lagi yang kena mengena
Semoga dimaafkan

A tribute to the late Bapak Edhi Handoko

2009-02-22T06:24:00.000-08:00

Nothing much to say, nothing more to write, here a little tribute to the late Bapak Edhi Handoko, Indonesia 4th GM who has passed away on Tuesday 17/2/2009 at 00.15 am in RS Bina Husada, Cibinong.

He is one of life's best gifts,
Someone to treasure all life through,
Someone who is always a special part of our chess community,
Someone who holds a prime place in our heart,
He's a great chess player, a trainer and also a friend,
A dad to some of us,
He's someone so dear and so good,
He's a blessing, he's a gift,
He's a treasure like no other,
He's someone that is truly wonderful,
He's caring and loving,
His friendship is truly invaluable,
Indispensable and unforgettable,
A gift for such a little while.

Assalamualaikum and salam sejahtera.

Alhamdulillah at last I manage to write again. This blog will be my 2nd attempt to continue writing about chess and to be part of Malaysian Chess Bloggers. When suitably inspired, I hope at least once a week I will write something about chess, maybe about chess development in Malaysia, short news on local chess events & tournaments or maybe about my career/experience as a chess player. Or I may just share a picture from my camera and write something that I never planned before. Anyway, I'm not a journalist and my writing may not be as good as regular bloggers, but I will try to make it interesting and as simple as it can be. And of course I welcome any comment from reader to my blog.

So stay tuned for more posts later. Thanks for reading and lets the journey begin. :-)
