i remember some time back after ling yao shen attained singapore champion he lost to yan peng fei i think peng fei got under 18 second place if i'm not wrong. This competition was held in xiang zhong. Anything is possible moreover in 2002 beidou had a friendly match with kakibukit. At tht time i was unrated and i beat mo wen yao. So can't really say 水鱼 singapore players are more evenly matched compared to china players.
