Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) presidential candidate Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim said the vision and mission he has on the Malaysian football are well-supported by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

The Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) club owner said Najib was also excited about the direction and changes he would bring should he be elected to helm the national football governing body.

"The prime minister seems to understand my agenda and he has the desire to see the changes on the teams and the leagues in Malaysia.

"Honestly, he appeared supportive of my mission and vision," he said at the meeting between him and local football supporters here Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the Johor Crown Prince described the meeting he had with the football supporters as a good one and would be expanded to other FAM alliance members should he got elected for the supreme post.

Tunku Ismail said the meeting had indirectly paved way for those who wanted to voice out their opinions and express their dissatisfaction.

"It was a good session. I had the opportunity to share my vision and mission with all football supporters in the country who are desperate to see a change.

"They also get to voice out their feelings through such a programme. The supporters too have rights and I want everybody to get involve in my efforts to revive the football scene in the country," he said. --Bernama
