Congratulations sir!

HISTORIC GOLD FOR THE PHILIPPINES! 🇵🇭

FM Arlan Cabe of Pangasinan captured the Individual Gold Medal in the Seniors 50 Division at the 24th ASEAN+ Age Group Chess Championships in Singapore—and made history as the first Filipino senior player to earn a direct International Master (IM) title through the event!

A golden performance. A historic milestone. 🇵🇭

Congratulations, FM Arlan Cabe!.
