                    [Summary] => Under a new president, Philippine chess is hoping to reach new heights.


Members of the national chess team, in fact, have never had it so good as they prepare for the 37th World Chess Olympiad, which takes place May 21 to June 5 in Turin, Italy.


Thanks to Surigao Rep. Prospero "Butch" Pichay, the new president of the National Chess Federation of the Philippines, the Olympiad-bound Filipinos are "armed to the teeth."
