No Malaysia at the 19th ASEAN+ Age-Groups in Davao City, Philippines

I am in Davao City, Mindanao, Philippines for a few days to cover the opening of the19th ASEAN+ Age-Group Chess Championships.

Was a bit surprised to realise that Malaysia was completely unrepresented given we were actually the host last year in Kuantan, Pahang.
