How India handles the hype for Commonwealth Chess. And that's 6 years ago.

It's just one of many simple video but shows the energy and excitement is this what the public traditionally view as a very boring board game (post Covid). Maybe that's why India is now a powerhouse of chess.

That's what's missing IMHO for our own Malaysian run Commonwealth. All the other factors are excellent like arbitering, venue, investment in broadcasting tech (DGT, Clono and idChess) etc. But we are still short on the "hype".

GilaChess #syiokSendiri videos and short summaries is a pitiful comparison where India and other countries are concerned.
