KUALA LUMPUR: With increased funding for the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM), it’s time to improve Harimau Malaya’s FIFA ranking, says Dungun MP Wan Hassan Mohd Ramli.
Wan Hassan reminded Malaysians that during the 1970s and 1980s, Malaysia’s football team was on par with Japan and South Korea. However, while those nations have since qualified for the World Cup multiple times, Malaysia’s football progress has lagged.
