The Singapore Chess Federation (Abbreviation: SCF) is the principal authority over all chess events in Singapore. SCF was founded in 1949 by Lim Kok Ann.[1] The Federation is affiliated to the world governing body, International Chess Federation (FIDE), and is part of the ASEAN Chess Confederation and the Asian Chess Federation.[2]
Its promotion of the game has caused participation in its youth and interschool events, among others, to jump from 517 in 1999 to over 1200 in 2004. As a result, Singapore has one of the highest number of chess players in schools per capita in Asia.
The current president is International Master Hsu Li Yang.[3] The current vice president is Grandmaster Wong Meng Kong.
