How about the results of the games? Having two FMs and one WIM, surely the visiting Indonesian team has the upper edge compared to the Putrajaya team. Put aside the results, the important matter is having the chess friendly games between a Malaysian and an Indonesian teams which will enhance the friendship among the chess payers of both countries. GiLoCatur hopes more chess friendly like this can be organized. We welcome any foreign chess teams who want to have chess friendlies with us.
