KULAI, Aug 10 — DAP's Teo Nie Ching said today the party's state election campaigns are unlikely to be affected by former Penang deputy chief minister II Prof P. Ramasamy quitting the party. The DAP national publicity secretary said the party has no right to prevent its former deputy chairman from leaving, but will always take a positive view of his decision. 'Such a scenario is not only happening in Penang, but also in Selangor as well. There were several former assemblymen who were not renominated for the state election this time,' she said.

We have a new world chess champion. Yesterday, Ding Loren from China beat Ian Nepomniachtchi from Russia in a rapid tie break after a tied 14-game match (they recorded three wins each and eight draws). I have long been an admirer of Ding's: he is a brave player and it did not surprise me that when things got really tense he prevailed over the more fluent Nepo. (The match was Ding vs Nepo to all chess fans and, incidentally, Ian is pronounced Yan.) The two contested the match because the reigning world champion, Magnus Carlsen of Norway, declined to defend his title.
