Ghani, Shahril in straight fight for FAM presidency
KUALA LUMPUR: Tan Sri Hamidin Amin will not return as FA of Malaysia (FAM) president, leaving a straight fight between two candidates as the national body confirmed 22 nominations for the Sept 17 extraordinary elective congress.
Malaysia's FAM presidency sees a tight race between Datuk Ab Ghani Hassan and Datuk Sri Dr Shahril Mokhtar as Tan Sri Hamidin Amin abandons the race. The election, to be held on September 17, will determine the next leaders for the national body, following the resignation of the entire executive committee earlier this year. The candidates have been vetted and approved in line with FAM regulations. The outcome will set the direction for Malaysian football's future.
