[Title] => Torre, six others pull out; NCFP option stays
[Summary] => Instead of a solution, the National Chess Federation of the Philippines yesterday faced more problems when seven players led by Grandmasters Eugene Torre and Bong Villamayor pulled out of the National Open chess finals which resumes today at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
The 16-man tournament, which will determine the members of the Philippine SEA Games team in the standard event, was already on its third round when it was called off last Sunday due to differences between some players and NCFP officials.

[Summary] => Newly-installed FIDE secretary-general Ignatius Leong and Zone 3.2a president Dang Tat Thang will file a report to the World Chess Federation regarding complaints against embattled National Chess Federation secretary-general Sammy Estimo.
But the two, who are on a short visit here, suggested that the NCFP under athletics chief Go Teng Kok will have to resolve the matter internally so as not to affect its preparations for the 23rd Southeast Asian Games slated Nov. 27-Dec. 5 in the country.

[Title] => Antonio, Mariano to boycott chess finals?
[Summary] => Slighted over the decision to seed Mark Paragua to the Olympiad-bound national team, grandmasters Joey Antonio and Nelson Mariano II yesterday threatened to boycott the National Chess Championships slated this weekend in Tagaytay.
"I have nothing against Mark but if they want him to be seeded they should have basis for doing so," said Antonio. "I know that they want to put up a strong team, but I believe there are more deserving players than Mark."
