FIDE top country ranking

0 comments
According to my calculation, Malaysia will be ranked No.65, the highest in the history of world ranking list if i am not wrong.

Thanks to major tournaments like Terengganu Open 2008, Penang Open 2009, Kuala Lumpur Open 2009, DATCC Team League and most important of all the Dato' Arthur Tan Malaysian Open during every Merdeka month. My sincere thanks to all the sponsors, and without them our chess will not progress.

Countless chess players had benefited from these FIDE rated tournaments. Do hope more sponsors will join the party and make Malaysia a heavenly place for chess.
