00:00Dato' Ong Kim Swee, a former national team coach,

00:09disagreed with the decision of the under-23s to play in the Asian Cup.

00:15The situation made it even more complicated for Malaysia to resume work in 2010,

00:20when Malaysia was led by Dato' K. Rajugobal.

00:23If Malaysia has an under-23 squad that is recognized for its excellence,

00:28the situation may be quite different.

00:30However, the reality is that the situation does not apply to the under-23s

00:35who are still looking for a balance and consistency among the players.

00:38We also have to understand that the under-23 elite players

00:43are also with the Super League teams.

00:46So, the players who are 23 years old,

00:50from which level do we want them?

00:52We have to understand that the EFF is a high-level competition.

01:01So, if we send a weak team,

01:05it will not help in terms of our football.

01:12Kim Swee did not hesitate to help the national squad

01:15by releasing the Sabah players for their fight in the Southeast Asia.

01:20What can I do?

01:24First of all, I want to discuss with the association

01:28about the ways we can play

01:33to avoid a schedule with the national squad.

01:37And the gap that is sufficient for the players to rest.

01:42I have no problem with that.

01:45And we have to get a win-win situation

01:51where we can help the Sabah National Team

01:54and at the same time the national team.
