Kibitzer's Corner
Feb-06-05  WMD: Lontoc was an eight-time champion of the Philippines. He drew Alekhine in a blindfold exhibition game:

Alekhine vs Mencarini / Lontoc, 1933

Feb-15-10  asianwarrior: He was a member of the Philippine chess team in the 1974 Nice Olympiad where they ended in 11th place. It was a surprise to many because it was then composed of only three International Masters and three National Masters. Two of them later become grandmasters (Torre and Balinas)
Feb-15-10  spawn2: Will try to find games where NM Lontoc is the victor. His current record here in chessgames does not reflect his true strength as a player who is feared by his opponents.

  GrahamClayton: One of the few players in the database to have played against both Alekhine and Fischer.
Jul-15-11  Benzol: <Graham> A month or so ago there was a discussion about players who had faced Capablanca and/or Alyekhin and Fischer.

See <beatgiant>'s post at Robert James Fischer for more details. I was suprised at how large the number of players actually was.

Aug-05-12  wordfunph: "He had a gift for playing simple positions and he mastered the transition to the endgame."

- Florencio Campomanes (on Ramon Lontoc)

May-23-15  zanzibar: I'm almost 100% sure this is his FIDE card:

http://ratings.fide.com/card.phtml?...

It has his rating, but not his dob.

His name is given as <Lontoc, Ramón> on OlimpBase:

http://www.olimpbase.org/players/k4...

I found him, with the same 2335 rating, on the Jan 1975 rating list, care of OlimpBase's ELO archives (in both Batsford and Chess Informant scans).
