Lim Kwan How, general secretary of the Asia Xiangqi Federation, does not agree. He says that if the game is to be internationalized and accepted by the next generation of Chinese, use of television broadcasting and computers is inevitable. Thus, he says, speed chess is also inevitable. But this doesn't mean that traditional chess has to disappear.
