Reporter: Since when did you enter the chess world?

Fressuly: I started when I was eleven and had represented the school from the MSSD championship until the MSSM championship.

Reporter: How do you learn how to play chess… is chess just your hobby or serious interest?

Fressuly: It's easy… just use some intelligence. Every time I learn something, I'll try it myself first or see how others play and identifying every piece and its movement. In short, I learn by myself without teachings from others. I also get strong support from my parents. They always gave my positive views and support to me. Chess is only an interest to me but not exactly a hobby.

Reporter: What are your feelings every time you enter a competition?

Fressuly: The feeling of panic is always there. I think a lot by then too, like "Is this guy good?" or "Is there hope to win?" But I've gone through it with self-confidence.

Reporter: What is the first thing you do before competing?

Fressuly: I'll always pray first…

Reporter: What is your feeling when announced winner?

Fressuly: Of course I'll be happy because it's not easy to be the winner after for so long joining the competition and meeting with all sorts of people. I'm grateful and thankful to those who had supported me all the way so I'll be active in chess.

Reporter: This time I would like to ask your secret to success, if you don't mind.

Fressuly: Hmm… One of my secrets are positive thinking, the rest are a little 'private'…

Reporter: Have you ever thought of being a famous chess player in Malaysia or worldwide?

Fressuly: Of course everyone wants to be famous but it's not going to be easy. But if I want I'll have to work hard too.

Reporter: By overall how many medals have you earned?

Fressuly: From 1995 until 1998 I have earned 13 medals and 12 certificates. The certificates and medals are my life's history as they are the results of what I've achieved.
