15-Year-Old Executive? Was He Qualified?
The newspaper reads,
"MANILA, Philippines -- Fifteen-year-old Mari Joseph Turqueza stunned National Master Efren Bagamasbad in the 11th and final round to top the 10th leg of the National Chess Federation of the Philippines (NCFP) Executives and Professionals Challenge recently at the Greenhouse Grill in Quezon City."

This chess news surprised me because the legal age to start a business and to pay tax is eighteen (18) years old.
What do you think? Please post your comments.
