'I have a pendrive with info implicating FAM' - TMJ

The Johor Crown Prince said this included the media personnel that the FAM always uses including former footballers in Malaysia, the amount of money taken by Football Malaysia Limited Liability Partnership (FMLLP) and given to the FAM as well as “a rubbish auditor's report given to me by my high-ranking friends in Kuala Lumpur”.

“Maybe it's time for football supporters of this country to see the truth and judge for themselves. I have a commander in India who always says, 'don't invite a sniper to a shooting range'.

“I would like to remind you all that the rakyat's money should be used for the rakyat only. Not for football and politics. Please take action on the issue of player salaries that has not been resolved,” he said in a statement posted on the Johor Southern Tigers’ Facebook page.

He said the FAM should stop making comments on the recent retirement of four national football players “as if they did not serve the country and win anything with the national team”.

“Why is it so difficult to respect their decision? There's only one thing you should say about them or to them, which is 'thank you'. Thank you for their sacrifices all these while. That's it.

“You don't need to show me and the current generation that you as old-timers are struggling to accept that the world and time have changed.

“What's strange is that after all these years, all of you can accept and stand the 30 years of corruption within the FAM,” he said.

On July 12, national team captain Safiq Rahim and Aidil Zafuan Radzak, both from Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT), had announced their early retirement from international football.
