Mark Paragua in his early 20's will soon be the first super GM in Asia.

Hi Penn, I'm not sure about that. Vishy Anand has been a super GM for a long time now, and he's from India. In addition, I've seen some Asian GMs with 2600+ ELO as early as 5 years ago, notably from India, China and probably Vietnam.

Mark will probably be the first from the Philippines though! :-)

Even not !! : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_Torre
And we can add that: he is the first asian grandmaster ;o)
Perhaps, we could find before 'Sultan Khan' but GM doesn't exists yet in this era.
