Say Chess!
Last month, three young ANZA members did us proud back in Oz. Not only did Lauren, Leah, and Lara Rice take part in the Australian Chess Open, but 12-year-old Leah was crowned the women’s champion after she placed 12th in the overall tournament. Held in Scarborough, Perth, the tournament saw the region’s best players square off in an 11-round Swiss format. Leah attributes her success to her big sister Lauren who picked up chess at Nanyang Primary School and is now in the Singapore national women’s squad. Away from chess, the Rice sisters also play for ANZA Netball - what a talented trio!

to time spent in Singapore. What’s it like working with us? For 2023 to be ANZA’s 75th year, it shows not only the important role it plays for expats in Singapore, but the total community. There’s an amazing atmosphere within the sporting and social groups. ANZA is like family away from home; being with likeminded people is what makes it so great. What are you up to when not at work? My weekends are spent entertaining my two little boys, whether it be at the park or coffee shop, enjoying culinary delights with friends, and if I’m lucky, watching sport at the local. If you had to give one investment tip, what would it be? Seek advice. There are endless factors to think about, including your own time, let alone all the various changing parts of legislation if you have assets over multiple jurisdictions.
