The Merdeka Tournament is
From Wikipedia..
"is a football tournament held in Malaysia to
honour the Independence Day. The competition is named after the Malay word
for independence."
In 1958, Malaysia, then Malaya won the tournament.
Tungku is of course Tungku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia's first
Prime Minister.
Sadly those glory days are in the past...the standard of football in Malaysia today is shameful...
