Indonesian migrant workers in Malaysia will support Indonesia’s national team in the away leg of the 2010 Asean Football Federation Suzuki Cup 2010 final at Bukit Jalil stadium in Kulala Lumpur, Malaysia, on Dec. 26.
“We are hoping to see a lot of ‘red’ worn by the 3 million workers in the first leg of the AFF Cup final,” Aburizal Bakrie, the Golkar Party chairman, said in Jakarta on Monday as quoted by Kompas.com.
There are millions of Indonesian workers in Malaysia.
The national team’s coach, the Democratic Party chairman and the Indonesia Soccer Association (PSSI) shared the same view.
“I hope to see at least half of the stadium filled with people wearing red and white,” Alfred Riedl, the national team’s coach, said Monday.
The Indonesian Soccer Association (PSSI) asked the Indonesian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur to organize migrant workers to support Indonesia. The association said it would also meet with the Malaysian local organizing committee about arranging tickets for the supporters, as well as their security.
