Singapore wil pull it off because of CEO/GM/CPA Kevin Goh. Visionary, hardworking ethic, experienced and chess-passionate man. Also, because of support from the Singapore Sports ministry and from private sector corporations. Also because it is not a one-man show. Rather, Kevin has many people behind the scenes who assist him, as is evident during the bidding phase. All the best, Kevin, in the planning and effort required to put on a great show for the world. Singapore has a propensity to be first and world-class in many things, and the organisation of this years WCC is no exception. Lastly, may this event boost Singapore chess and send chess fever and popularity in Singapore to the Stratosphere. For a Singaporean talented individual or team to be a podium finisher in the Candidates or in the Olympiad, is right now unthinkable, but one day when that happens, it will because of the influence, leadership, sacrifices and inspiration of GM Kevin Goh who laid the groundwork in 2024 for future successes.

At first he looked like a kid

Delhi literally has unbreathe air in November and December. What were they thinking bidding for it . Emil sutovsky embarassed it . Only place that could host is ramoji film city in Hyderabad which hosted a world cup in early 2000s and gukesh is telugu that gives a developed place feel

Singapore is quite an expensive place to visit 🎉
