Why the govt owes football a bail-out package of RM150mil

A few years ago, Tan Sri Dr Mohd Daud Bakar and Rosle Md Derus were not likely to cross paths.

With Dr Mohd Daud making a name for himself as a financial adviser for various institutions, including the National Bank of Oman (Oman), Amundi Asset Management (France), Bank of London and Middle East (London), BNP Paribas Najma (Bahrain), Natixis Bank (Dubai), Morgan Stanley (Dubai), Sedco Capital (Saudi and Luxembourg) and Dow Jones Islamic Market Index (New York) amongst many others, the chances of him interacting with Rosle, a former footballer earning a living as a coach, were slim at best.
