Privatising the national team a potential banana skin for FAM

DESPITE the abrupt resignation of Kim Pan-gon and the ensuing boycott of the Ultras Malaya ahead of the ongoing Merdeka Tournament, the FA of Malaysia (FAM) have found themselves in a cushy position financially.

But I assume the piece of random news that the Prime Minister had approved of a RM15mil cash injection for the national team came with a caveat, with the possibility of FAM having to relinquish their autonomy over Harimau Malaya, which remains the final asset of the governing body.
