Lim Chong’s interest in chess was
sparked in the early 1970’s after coming across a book written by world
champion Alexander Alekhine on his best games at the Klang public library.
Realising he could not ever play like Alekhine, Lim Chong made his next best
move – writing about chess in The Malay
Mail. When his long-running weekly Chessmate column had to give way to
other work commitments as a senior journalist, he admittedly thought he could
forget about chess…. but as everyone knows, you can never forget your first
love.
