This is the oldest chess tournament in Malaysia. CAS hopes to get your support in participating so that this event can carry on as part of Malaysian Chess since 1974.
We appreciate players (listed below) who have signed up for this year edition and hope that this edition does not create an all-time low turnout. It may come a day when CAS has no choice but to discontinue this fide-rated classical time control event because the participants are dwindling in the last few years.
A possible feasible option for next year onwards is to put an end to the Classical time and change it to Rapid time control. Nevertheless, CAS has to make a big decision pending the turn-out in this edition.
There are 35 individual prizes up for grab totalling RM10,000/= cash and 3 prizes for Best Schools/Institution of Higher Learning. Once again, we yet to have a sponsor for this event. For those who are interested to join, Click here for more details.
