Chess- The bastion of thinking.

The mental sport; the mind sport; the thinking man's sport. The sport that teaches optimum thinking in competition under intense pressure. The sport that teaches strategy and tactics. The sport that teaches goal setting and high achievement.

Isn't that the reason why we all joined this sport?

Then why is it that we don't see any thinking in the decisions made by the leaders of Malaysian Chess?

Where is Malaysian level chess thinking displayed? We see a lot of it on our chess blogs. Emotionally stunted people shouting nonsensical things. The few vocal people who seem to not notice the venom spewing out of toxic blogs but behave like rabid dogs when legitimate and reasonable questions are asked.

How did the lunatics get to take over the asylum? This needs to change or we will disappear off the chess radar just as thinking is vanishing from our chess.

Coming next. The hot topic discussed at Datmo. MCF's coming AGM.
