Indonesian officials visit AFC
Diplomacy sucks.
The head of the Indonesian FA is currently doing bird in a Jakarta jail and FIFA are clamouring for his replacement in new elections. Today the members of the FA at liberty visited the AFC in KL to discuss the future of their organisation in the wake of the current mess.
However read the blurb and you get the impression they just called in for a cup of tea and perhaps some roti canai.
A delegation from the Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) visited AFC House today to discuss the future road map to revise the statutes of their federation.
The Indonesian delegation, including PSSI Vice President Nirwan D. Bakrie, Dali Tahir, General Secretary Nugraha Besoes and Board Member M. Imran Hanafi, also took the opportunity to express their intention to further the Vision Asia project in Indonesia
The delegation heard AFC’s advice concerning the necessary amendments to the statutes. PSSI confirmed that they are setting up a special team to deal with the amendments to their statutes to fall in line with the FIFA Statutes.
During the meeting, AFC President Mohamed bin Hammam commented: “The statutes of PSSI must be changed to suit what is being requested. We would very much like to see model statutes for PSSI.”
PSSI also presented their first strategic plan for Vision Indonesia, a project re-launched following the successful hosting of AFC Asian Cup 2007™.
Representing AFC was President, Mohamed bin Hammam; General Secretary, Paul Money Samuel; Assistant General Secretary & Director of Marketing and Communications, Clare Kenny Tipton; and Legal Services representative Charmaine Pereira.
