If I were a PR guy...

...I would have done some research on who was the Selangor player that had the distinction of scoring against Manchester United on June 14, 1981. I would have discovered that he was K. Kanagarajah and that since his retirement, the former winger had given his life to coaching youngsters around Cheras. I would then arrange for him and his players to attend a coaching clinic held by Bryan Robson or the current United team and later give them a special pass to enter the National Stadium on Saturday. Read Tony Mariadass' interesting story here which perfectly captures the Malaysian angle which used to be Malay Mail's forte! Also despite the bombings in Jakarta, I would have advised the United delegation to go ahead with the trip to Jakarta. The Red Devils, despite being the symbol of power and success, decided to abandon their huge fan base in Jakarta. Ask in return security measures fit for presidents and change hotels. If only I were a PR guy...

Masalahnye media oficer FAm sekarang ni lemau...tak tahu benda nye.

He even does not know how to cater the needs of the press,..he should learn frm previous media officer like u (loose cannon), Ahmad Khawari Isa and not forgetting SS Dhaliwal too.

Those three are former journalist at that time,..so they know how to handle the press,tp it dosen't mean if bukan ex journalist tak leh jadi good media officer.

Yang penting ada usaha,..ni lagak ngan tie dia je,..bila pc duk sebelah je buat apa...:)

FAM apa peduli dengan media officer dia lemau ke, gelabah ke, apa ke... Janji dia orang SU Agung cukup. FAM tak perlukan kualiti kerja, yang penting 'boleh sokong aku'. Hehheheeh
