~~Delete~~ - has yet to play a fully pro match Spiderone 07:45, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Now keep as per new evidence Spiderone 16:47, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 13:41, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Passes NFOOTY, has played senior international football, in a fully professional league or in a match in the competition proper (i.e. not qualifying rounds) of a cup competition which involved two teams both from FPLs. Fenix down (talk) 09:48, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep - the subject of this article has played for the Malaysia national football team (see here) and thus passes NFOOTY. Inter&anthro (talk) 14:26, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Fenix down:, @GiantSnowman: and @Johnpacklambert: I would ask you guys to have a second look at the new evidence to see if this is enough evidence to say that he passes NFOOTY. I would say it's a reliable source. Spiderone 10:55, 29 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per the website above. Also see the national football teams website as the stats show that he participated in a FIFA match before. NgYShung ^huh? 02:40, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
