JAKARTA (JP): The Indonesian pair of Henky Lasut and Eddy
Manoppo lived up to their billing as the continent's best pair
when they won the Pacific Asia Bridge Federation Congress in
Macau on Wednesday.

The seasoned tandem, who led Indonesia to fourth place in the
Bermuda Bowl world championship last year, topped the field of
122 teams from nine countries with 552,5 match points (MP),
spokesman for the Indonesian Contract Bridge Association Ananta
Wijaya said in Wednesday.

Taiwanese pair Nelson Hsia and Hwang S came second with 528
MP, followed by Thomas NG and LL Lee of Hong Kong who collected

The PABFC Open Team championships kicked off on Wednesday at
the same venue, featuring 28 women's and men's teams, split into
two groups in each gender. The tournament will run until
tomorrow. (amd)
