Happy anniversaries, Fide and MCF

Get ready for the Eighth Eastern Asia Youth Chess Championship 2024, hosted at the CitiTel Hotel on Penang Road, Penang, from 12th to 20th July 2024. This event coincides with two significant milestones in the chess world: the World Chess Federation's Centenary and the Malaysian Chess Federation's Golden Jubilee, both occurring in 2024. 

Moreover, this championship is held as both the Malaysian Chess Federation and the Penang Chess Association marks the 50th anniversary of Malaysia holding their first international chess tournament, the First Asian Team Chess Championship, on our shores in December 1974. As a joint collaboration, it was a remarkable success. Read about that here.

Happy Anniversaries
