FAM to revise Article 88; Azzuddin heads to AFF

Two interesting developments transpired during the FA of Malaysia (FAM) exco meeting on Wednesday. 1. After much pressure and criticism, FAM's legal committee will now look into Article 88 of FAM's Statute and propose recommendations to "clarify" the infamous article before it is presented to the Congress in August. 2. FAM president who is also AFF president Sultan Ahmad Shah has appointed FAM general-secretary Azzuddin Ahmad ( pic ) as AFF general-secretary. Azzuddin is "honoured" with the appointment and is set to leave FAM by May 1. Well and good that there are now attempts to look into Article 88 but it remains to be seen how will the draft amendments look like. Will the article envelope alternative Media (including websites, social Media)? Will it impose a further gag upon more people? Or will they decide to remove the Article altogether? As for Azzuddin's departure from FAM, would this mean that Sultan Ahmad will also give up his presidency...
