Well done! Our duo, Puteri Rifqah and Puteri Munajjah, have clinched the final Bronze medal at the women's blitz chess team competition of the 31st SEA Games in Vietnam. Heartiest congratulations to them. At least there are two Bronze medals to show from what could have been a disastrous outing for the Malaysian chess contingent at the biennial Games. The other Bronze medal came earlier from Sim Jia Ru who entered the semi-finals of the Women's Rapid Chess individual competition last Tuesday.
The full results of all the chess competitions at this SEA Games can be viewed on the vietnamchess website. And sorry, I can't provide any more exclusive pictures from Vietnam because in the last few days as our chess fortune began plummeting, so too my trustworthy source sort of dried up completely.

Note: Just to be very sure, all my stories on this blog pertaining to the chess competitions at the 31st SEA Games in Vietnam are my own and do not represent the private or public views of any chess organisation or persons connected to them. So don't go off on a tangent and ask who is SS Quah, okay? Go check up on your chess history.
