KUALA LUMPUR: All the 22 players in the national team that won the AFF Suzuki Cup will receive cash incentives from the Youth and Sports Ministry and Sportswriters Association of Malaysia’s (SAM) AFF Suzuki Cup Fund.
Deputy Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Razali Ibrahim said apart from the RM5,000 to be awarded to each member of the team, the players would also receive incentives from the fund collected by SAM. To date, a total of RM90,000 has been collected.
“The funds collected by SAM will be given to the players directly and I feel the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) will also give them incentives for the win,” Razali told reporters after launching the Semarak 1Belia 1Malaysia Carnival at the Youth and Sports Complex in Kampung Pandan here yesterday.
The incentives were for the national team that beat Indonesia 4-2 on aggregate to win the AFF Suzuki Cup for the first time in 14 years.
