Well, you could say that this World Scrabble Championships was quite a failure for not only Malaysia, but the whole South East Asian Region.

Ganesh failed to secure the championships after losing 5 games in a row.
Malaysia failed to increase the quota of players.
Pakorn Nemitrmansuk got trashed by newly crowned WSC Adam Logan by a mere 3 games.
Singapore failed to increase their country's quota.

I was expecting more from the World Scrabble Championships finals. But Pakorn made a last turn blunder at the deciding match and handed the championships to Adam.

Ganesh could have got a thousand US dollars more if he won the last games against Australian Naween Fernando which he lost to by 5 points.

Sigh. 2007 would be better. I hope
