From the Star….
Newly-elected FA of Malaysia (FAM) deputy president Khairy Jamaluddin has been appointed as the new Malaysian Super League (MSL) chairman.
Khairy, the president of Perak club side UPB-MyTeam FC who have been promoted to the Super League next season, replaces Datuk Abdul Aziz Abdul Rahman.
Besides heading the marketing arm (MSL) of the FAM, Khairy will also assume the post of deputy chairman of the national team committee, which will be headed by Sultan Ahmad Shah.
The new FAM line-up, led by president Sultan Ahmad Shah, got down to immediate work after the Congress was held at Menara KLCC Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) here Sunday.
The exco met immediately after the Congress and the various appointments were announced to the candidates.
Sultan Ahmad Shah is still the chairman of the finance committee while Datuk Redzuan Tan Sri Sheikh Ahmad, who was returned unopposed as deputy president, stays as chairman of the technical and youth committee.
Newly elected vice-president Datuk Che Mat Jusoh will head the competitions committee. He replaces Datuk Raja Ahmad Zainuddin Raja Omar, who lost his vice-president’s seat at the Congress.
Khairy said the new FAM team under Sultan Ahmad Shah would address the various issues and problems faced by the affiliates in order to be more productive.
“Efforts will be made to upgrade the league system and to step up development work at state level. This needs time to bear fruits and we hope to see changes gradually,†he said.
“But our immediate aim is to see to the preparation of the national team for the World Cup qualifiers next month, the national Under-23 squad for the Korat SEA Games and the new M-League season,†said Khairy.
Asked about his new post, Khairy quipped: “Suicidal … tougher than (being) a politician.â€
