PETALING JAYA: The Government will temporarily freeze all additional funding to the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) and suggest a new vetting protocol for naturalised athletes as Putrajaya moves to restore public confidence amid an ongoing document forgery scandal, Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh told Parliament on Thursday (Nov 20).
Yeoh said no further allocations will be released to FAM until it addresses accountability concerns stemming from the controversy, which involves falsified documents submitted for naturalisation.
