Why Malaysia Cup "IS IMPORTANT"?

Why (Malaysia Cup) is it so (important to Singapore Football)? Read on
Why is it so? Read on 

It was the right decision for me not to snap in the recently concluded AFF Suzuki Cup, which I would like to show my greatest appreciation to Mr Jaron Lee for helping this platform when I felt I was not physically and mentally prepared for that regional marquee tournament.

In the meantime, we also noticed the increased presence of "fan-based media" like myself during the abovementioned tournament who also have been actively churning out content for the past one, two years.

The emergence of these new players is a welcome sight, and it is also a constant reminder to me that the need to be innovative in order to stay relevant in the field.

BEING SELECTIVE NOW

I thought with the proliferation of social media tools which are now seen as a "must-have" for many organizations and individuals, information posted on these new media domains can be shared, re-curated by other platforms easily.

This is why weeks right after the end of the 2021 Singapore Premier League, I did not see myself putting much information like transfer news that would usually generate many talking points among the netizens.

Just being selectively on this aspect for this time around when comes to deciding what news to put up.

PHOTO TAKING

While the ongoing Covid situation has made things more challenging in every aspect of our daily routine, photo taking at local football matches will still be one of the main focuses of this platform if allowed to do so.

After all, images captured today will be one important source to allow future generations to understand the joy and struggles we had been through, just like how we learned from old newspapers archives one thing or two about local football in the past.

WHY MALAYSIA CUP IS IMPORTANT?

This is specifically the reason why compilation of local football history will still be another key priority with the repurposing of some old blog posts.

One of those recently repurposed contents is the blog post that detailed the 1987 Malaysia Cup souvenir program produced by the Football Association of Singapore (FAS).

Some fresh details had been updated to keep abreast with time and shall be a continuing process, as the particular blog post has been one of the most visited ones over the past few years.

While I may not be one of those who embraced the idea of reassociation with it when FAS inked that controversial MOU with their Malaysian counterparts in 2011, we cannot deny the fact that Malaya (later Malaysia) Cup has an important place in Singapore football history.

That is why also in the pipeline will see a blog post on Singapore's Malaya Cup victory in the 1960s with materials from my recently acquired match program of that year's final.
