While based in Hong Kong, Hans published stories in the South China Morning Post Sunday Magazine, Asiaweek, Thai Airlines' Sawasdee, Japan's Asahigraph Magazine and others in Europe and Asia. His first visit to Vietnam was back in 1991. He liked it and returned frequently to travel and take photos In 1994, he started to use his photography on postcards. "A year later I moved my base to Saigon. Since then my photographs of Vietnam have appeared on many postcards and calendars and in the book Postcards from Vietnam." Besides traveling around Vietnam taking photos that can be used on cards and calendars, Hans does commercial assignments for advertising and annual reports, both in Vietnam and elsewhere."

The large majority of chess players who would like to improve their game, have not the necessary opportunity of pitting themselves against players of master-strength, or at least of obtaining the desired instruction from personal intercourse with them. It is for such players that the present work is intended. The books on which the learner has to rely hardly ever serve his purpose, being mostly little more than a disjointed tabulation of numberless opening variations, which cannot be understood without preliminary studies, and consequently only make for confusion. In the end the connection between the various lines of play may become clear, after the student has made an exhaustive study of the subject, but very few would have either the time or the inclination for such prolonged labour.PART II.
