Quoc Khanh 1974
I have an interest in South East Asia that goes beyond football and when I came across this competition my interest was piqued. With much of what was known as Indo China engulfed in war the politics of this competition intrigue.
The US was at war with Laos but allied with South Vietnam and Thailand as well as Khmer. Just a few months after this was played Laos, South Vietnam and Khmer fell to communism.
And Persipura were in the final?! I'd love to see some pictures of all this!
