or more Malaysian fans, particularly Selangor fans for this
match. The presence of the fans always make matches such an
enjoyment.
“This prestigious tournament gets grander each year
with the introduction of one grand lucky draw in 2006 and
2007, while this year there will be even more lucky draws
and one main grand lucky draw. Not to mention fans will be
entertained by a series of popular artistes on that day.”
he added.
The highlight of the event, he said, is a spectacular stunt
performance which he declined to reveal further. “Tickets
are priced at only RM5.00 so be there for all the excitement.”

year is Redmax Sdn Bhd. The Sultan of Selangor’s Cup
