Dato’ Windsor John told Dato’ Hamidin: "We are happy to welcome the FAM delegation to AFC House, the home of Asian football.

Dato' Windsor added that the AFC has been encouraged by the positivity and enthusiasm Malaysian football is witnessing after the election of Dato’ Hamidin at the helm of FAM.
The AFC General Secretary also debriefed the FAM delegation on several development initiatives that AFC is providing to its Member Associations to develop football in their countries.
The FAM President thanked the AFC for their support and added: "We are ready to take Malaysian football to the next level and for that we need active support of the AFC and I am sure the relationship between the AFC and FAM will further enhance in coming days.”
