Sana pagkatapos ng event mabigay agad ang premyo! halos lahat ng event ng NCFP since early 2009 puro delayed ang bigay ng premyo.

Sa 2009 Battle of GMs 6 weeks delayed, pahirapan pa ang bigayan; sa 2009 GMA Cup at Pichay Cup 2 months inabot ang premyo ng mga local players including GMs...yung dumayong mga foreign players binigay agad sa closing ceremonies...tapos ang premyo ng mga locals pinaghintay ng napakatagal eh inabot ng 2 buwan...ano ba yan kawawa naman ang Pilipino players natin palaging huli! Tapos balaki balik pa sa opisina ni Pichay sa LWUA...nakakaasar naman ang sistema ng NCFP...ang dami ng sponsors tapos ganito?

Ngayon walang allowance sa PSC since December...paano mag training itong mga 'isang kahig - isang tukang' national players natin...hindi naman sila kagaya nina GMs So, Torre at Gonzales at iba pa na nakasandal sa pader...

Nga pala Olympiad year at ASEAN Age Group championships dito sa Manila sa June...handa na ba tayo dito o last minute eliminations na naman at training kuno...sigurado magkakalat na naman tayo sa mga international tournaments...

Saka ano na nangyari dyan sa tinatawag nilang National Chess Academy...puro drawing wala namang aksyon...nasasayang ang pagod ng maraming tao wala namang nangyayari buti pa ang ibang bansa!
