FAM determined to see punishment handed, but defends PSSI's commitment

Although the Malaysian FA (FAM) president Datuk Hamidin Amin is determined to see action taken by world football governing body FIFA over crowd trouble in their recent World Cup Asian qualification Group G match against Indonesia, he is insistent that what happened was beyond the Indonesian authorities' control.

When met by the press while observing Malaysia's training on Sunday, Hamidin noted that FAM is in the final stages of filing a complaint over the incident with FIFA.

"We've undertaken the groundwork and our status committee has met with the AFC (Asian Football Confederation), God willing we'll submit the complaint to FIFA on Tuesday, along with the proof.
