Blogging about CHESS OKU in Malaysia is not Sifu exclusive right but the right of all OKUs in the world.
OKU or Orang Kurang Upaya ie the Handicap People

All these categories are basially new to OKU Malaysia but chess have been promoted or carried out as sports or as a friendship game but it is developing to be a major development factor for accepting chess as a listed event in all the categories.
