Int'l chess institute to be built in south Vietnam
A chess institute will be built in the southern province of Ba Ria-
Vung Tau to train players from around the Asian region, the provincial
Department of S****ts announced.
Under an agreement between Vung Tau authorities and World Chess
Federation (FIDE) Secretary General Ignatius Leong, the chess center
will offer training in three kinds of chess, including chess, Chinese
chess and shogi, or Japanese chess.
Vung Tau authorities have agreed to grant a 6,000-square-meter plot
ofland for the institute.
Leong plans to invite FIDE President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov to attend a
ceremony to lay the first stone for the institute's construction.
The ceremony is scheduled to coincide with Ilyumzhinov's visit to Vung
Tau for the opening ceremony of the world youth chess champion****ps in
mid-October.
Shogi is the most popular of a family of chess variants native to
Japan.
Unique to the Japanese forms of chess are the drops, moves whereby
captured enemy pieces are returned into play as ally pieces.
