STRONG CORPORATE PRESENCE - AIRASIA (OFFICIAL AIRLINES) AND INFLUENTIAL CORPORATE LEADERS - FORBES ASIA's BUSINESSMAN OF THE YEAR

Tan Sri Tony Fernandes is the Malaysian visionary who kicked off the budget air-travel revolution in Asia. It’s not surprising the local press calls him the Richard Branson of Asia. The two friends go back 23 years ago. Named FORBES ASIA's Businessman of the Year for 2010. He is Malaysia's Top 20 Richest. (Allan: He went for a few rounds of paintball in an exhibition match with an Australian team during the Paintball World Cup Asia 2010, and yes, he does play paintball).

wildcat65gt500 · 08-10-2011, 09:30 AM

WOW!! They know how to throw a tournament. Dang. I really need to get there one of these days.

**John** · 08-10-2011, 09:50 AM

You guys are not kidding around. You really are trying to make paintball a true sport!

cngpballer · 08-10-2011, 10:04 AM

Its really cool and all and its great what you're doing for the sport. But whats up with the $70-$80 cases of paint?

chickenbot5 · 08-10-2011, 10:04 AM

Really? Look at the entry fees. SUPER cheap. and besides its international and look at the event, gotta pay for it some how. Hell for this type of event I'd pay premium entry and 80+ for paint.

You have to realize, this isn't in the US. You can't compare the price to throwing some paint in your car. They are making sure it is on site and fresh. Plus, the low entry makes up for it.

Damn. Good luck to this!

antoniokam · 08-10-2011, 10:45 AM

And unless you play d1 everything is race 2 or less. So a paint bill wouldn't be that high, also I believe the psp calls for 60 a case with out a deal set up

scarface478 · 08-10-2011, 11:16 AM

oh yeah paintball then bangkok for some late night action...........snake venom shots and hookers FTW

buttswck · 08-10-2011, 11:16 AM

look everyone if you have any sense you will play this thing. i am going to film and play.

this tournament is absolutely going to **** on anything else out there in the world.

dont call me stupid. read and watch all those videos and tell me im wrong.

James Butts Greensboro, NC and im going to go ball in malaysia. chea.

how about the 150 entry fee for probably the nicest tournament you will ever experience? or 650 for d1? ...... pshhh whatt these are great prices. thats what people should really be asking. scenarios here in the states like skirmish sell off for like 80-100 a case. and they do just fine year after year after year.

really this makes me 2 things...

1.) excited to go across the world to experience a great paintball trip.

2.) it makes me ask how come my LOCAL tournaments are more expensive than this.

maybe im just raging but it seems like if paintball business men could really throw things down here in the usa and give lots and lots of effort. they too could hold awesome events.

but! so far allan phang and his team of ballin tournament makers are stealing the show.
