A pedestrian walks past a sign for a street originally named after Britain's former prince Andrew, with the title of "prince" blackened out, along a road in the town of Carrickfergus, County Antrim in Northern Ireland on November 25, 2025. A Northern Irish council has voted to rename a street in the town of Carrickfergus called after Britain's disgraced former prince Andrew. Mid and East Antrim is the first UK council to drop the ex-prince from a street name following King Charles III's decision to remove his brother -- now known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor -- from public life.

<div itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/VideoObject"><meta itemprop="name" content="Sports Matters Podcast: How a ‘Hyperactive’ Student Became Malaysia’s Chess Powerhouse"><meta itemprop="description" content="What do the lightning-fast reflexes of a badminton court and the silent, calculated intensity of a chess board have in common? <br /><br />For Tan Wei Hao, the answer is the &quot;Harimau Malaya&quot; stripes. While many athletes are driven solely by the pursuit of gold, Tan’s journey was fuelled by a simple, profound dream: to earn the right to wear the official Malaysian attire. <br /><br />This ambition was triggered by none other than our national legend, Datuk Seri Lee Chong Wei, proving that inspiration knows no sporting boundaries.<br /><br />Tan’s path to the Malaysian Men’s Asean Chess Team was anything but conventional. Once labelled a &quot;hyperactive&quot; child with boundless energy and no clear outlet, his life took a transformative turn following a chance encounter with a chess board in a school canteen. That restless energy found its focus, evolving from a schoolyard hobby into a disciplined, strategic powerhouse.<br /><br />Today, standing alongside national stalwarts like Afiq Syukri, Muhammad Helmy and Tiong Kung Ming, Tan views competition not as a hurdle, but as the essential fuel required to reach the next level. <br /><br />In the world of high-stakes chess, being competitive is only half the battle; the true mastery lies in turning that rivalry into a moral boost; the ultimate mind game. Discover how the psychology of the board translates into fierce national pride and a relentless drive for excellence.<br /><br />"><meta itemprop="uploadDate" content="2026-02-06T11:00:00.000Z"><meta itemprop="thumbnailUrl" content="https://s2.dmcdn.net/v/Z-XVK1fYPSpKQU46x/x120"><meta itemprop="duration" content="P2280S"><meta itemprop="embedUrl" content="https://geo.dailymotion.com/player/xlcbf.html?video=x9zd32s"><script src="https://geo.dailymotion.com/player/xlcbf.js" data-video="x9zd32s"></script></div>
