Liga Dunhill

Liga Dunhill

From Bisnis Indonesia

I was surprised to read Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports
Hayono Isman's statement that it is quite probable the Liga
Dunhill tournament will be stopped if it continues to claim
victims in a match disturbance.

As an official who holds the highest authority in sports
matters in this country, the minister should support the Liga
Dunhill competition because from this event we can net soccer
players of international caliber.

The fact that there was a victim during a brawl taking place
during a soccer match was an excess. It must not stop the
tournament. I strongly believe that Indonesian football fans will
be quite upset if the tournament is stopped.

I appeal to the management of the Indonesian Soccer
Association to do everything right to minimize disturbances
during a soccer match.
