A Challenging Adventure to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
I had this unexpected adventure in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from August 8 to 11, 2019. My twin brother who was in Oriental Mindoro asked me to book a ticket to Malaysia since we will be playing in the Astro Merdeka Rapid Open Team Championship 2019 with other team members from the Philippines. Chess enthusiast that I am, without a blink, I scheduled my flight the same days that my brother told me using my BDO Credit Card.
Sadly, upon reaching the venue, I have no teammates to rely on as my brother had a misunderstanding with a chess official from the Philippines. Good things that happened were I found several multi-talented athletes from my country who are GMs, WGM, IMs, FMs and other masters who have been so supportive of our plight and that I learned much about the neighboring places in Kuala Lumpur.
Just minutes away from the start of the game, this lady from Malaysia got our names to join their team provided we pay a certain amount which we obliged. That was a big break from my twin and me as we were itching to fight big time in Malaysia.
Our team PAMA 2 suffered misfortunes not in the hands of our opponents but on our team members from other countries for they didn't score even a single victory during the whole 8 games that we played. As a consolation, my brother got a bronze medal in board 2 position scoring 6.5 out of 8 games. Congratulations bro.
Lessons learned:
1) Form a team ahead of time.
2) Bring additional funds for other expenses.
3) Scan the venue through the internet for some vital information.
Sharing with you some light moments with the Philippines chess experts
P.S.
A word of gratitude to GM Nelson Mariano (who is now a resident of Singapore) for extending us help, to all the UE players who were there, and to all the Filipino players for making our lives easy and fine.

Nanay: Anak, ibili mo nga ako ng sibuyas at miswa diyan sa tindahan.
Anak: (Nagkakamot habang nag-e-ML sa CP) Nanay, gabi na po natatakot po akong lumabas.
Nanay: (Naasar pero nagtimpi pa) Anak, huwag kang mag-alala, 'di ba lagi mo namang kasama ang guardian angel mo. Dalawa kayong bibili.
Anak: Naku Nanay! Iyong guardian angel ko na lang ang utusan mo. Idadamay mo pa ako e.

A Filipino applies for a Job at Wal-Mart. An office manager at Wal-Mart was given the task of hiring an individual to fill a job opening. After sorting through a stack of resumes he found four people who were equally qualified.
An American, a Russian, an Australian and a Filipino.
He decided to call the
four in and ask them only one question. Their answer would determine which of them would get the job.
The day came and as the four sat around the conference room table the interviewer asked, "What is the fastest thing you know of?" Acknowledging Dave, the American on his right, the man replied, " A THOUGHT". It just pops into your head. There's no warning that it's on the way; it's just there. A thought is the fastest thing I know of."
"That's very good!" replied the interviewer.
"And now you sir?" he asked Vladimir, the Russian. "Hmm.... let me see. A blink! It comes and goes and you don't know that it ever happened. A BLINK is the fastest thing I know of."
"Excellent!" said the interviewer. "The blink of an eye, that's a very
popular cliche for speed."
He then turned to George, the Australian who was contemplating his reply. “Well, out at my dad's ranch, you step out of the house and on the wall there's a light switch. When you flip that switch, way out across the pasture the light in the barn comes on. Yep, TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of."
The interviewer was very impressed with the third answer and thought he had found his man. "It's hard to beat the speed of light" he said.
Turning to Eleuterio, the Filipino, the fourth and final man, the
interviewer posed the same question. Eleuterio replied, "Apter herring da 3 frevyos ansers sirrr, et's obyus to me dat de pusstest ting known is Diarrhea."
"WHAT!?" said the interviewer, stunned by the response.
"O I can expleyn serrr ." said Eleuterio "YOU SEE SERR, De odder day I wasn't peeeling bery good and I run soooo pusst to de battrroom, BUT bepore I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON DE LIGHT, I alrrreddy had de sheets in my panhts. Aysos nako!" Tumae na pala...
Eleuterio is now the new "Greeter" at Wal-Mart. (CTTO, taken from FB)
