Indonesian media: Indonesia plans to leave the Southeast Asian Football Confederation and become the 11th member of the Association

Okezone Bola reports that the Indonesian Football Association is considering leaving the South East Asian Football Association (ASEAN) and joining the East Asian Football Association (EFA), which would make Indonesia its 11th member.

According to local media reports, THE PSSI (Indonesian Football Association) has lodged representations with the Southeast Asian Football Confederation. “We need to continue to wait,” said the DIRECTOR general of the Indonesian Football Association when asked about withdrawing from the Southeast Asian Football Confederation at the Patriot Stadium in Kandrabar on Friday July 15. “There is no result yet.” “I spoke to the president of AFF (Southeast Asian Football Association), but his opinion was different, and so were the other members,” he told the media.

Some fans of the current Indonesian national team are encouraging the Indonesian Football Association to leave the Southeast Asian Football Confederation and join the East Asian Football Confederation. The Indonesian football Association has heard the exhortation. In the Southeast Asian Cup, there are usually 10 member countries directly divided into two groups. Finally, the top two teams in the first stage will advance to the semi-finals of the Southeast Asian Cup. In the East Asian Cup, there are usually three stages. At present, the EAST Asian Football Confederation has 10 members, including Japan, South Korea, North Korea, China, Hong Kong, Guam, Taiwan, Mongolia, Mariana Islands and Macao.
