I'm really perplexed, because the name Malaysia Betta Congress suggests it is of Malaysian origin? I'm Malaysian and consider myself to be somewhat of an old timer in the scene, that's the reason why I'm asking.
Sorry if I seem nosy.

It just doesn't seem right that a Malaysia Betta Congress suddenly appears and is a company(?) which is a subsidiary of SBC.

Put yourselves in our (Malaysian) shoes. People outside of Singapore and Malaysia would think that competition known as MBC Friendship Cup, is organized and run in Malaysia.
Furthermore, it would be participated predominantly by Singaporeans, naturally, as it is being held in Singapore, after all.
Finally, it would infer that Betta Society of Malaysia is incapable of organizing a competition for Malaysians and as such a competition needs to be held in Singapore and organized by Singaporeans.

Even if Malaysians residing in Singapore are the ones behind the formation of MBC (which I suspect should be the most plausible scenario), calling it a subsidiary of SBC would be akin to us setting up a branch known as Singapore Betta Society in Malaysia.

I know the intentions are good, but it really doesn't make sense to name it MBC Friendship Cup when it could very well just be Singapore Betta Congress Friendship Cup.

This sets a dangerous precedence as Singapore is a country which is home to many nationalities. Would the next thing be Indonesia Betta Congress (Subsidiary of SBC) or Thailand Betta Congress (Subsidiary of SBC) be next in line?

Please understand that I am not out to stir up trouble, but I'd like my arguments to be heard. I feel my arguments have been put in a diplomatic and solid manner. Should anyone want to rebuke my arguments, please be diplomatic as well. After all, I consider many betta players in the Singapore scene as my friends.

Bro Jetticus, I can understand where you coming from. As an ex Malaysian, I find this rather perplex. Am sure the organizer has good intention. But, the execution can be mis interpreted by outsiders and those not familiar with the original intent.

Never attended any competiton but got go see see look look only, so far
