Whatever foreign talents can do, Malaysians can do too. If not, even better. That's the sentiment of Dato' Sri Vijay Eswaran, the owner of a rebirthed Petaling Jaya City Football Club with their #YaKiniLokal campaign - where ahead of the upcoming Super League, PJCFC made it a point to employ a 100% local footballers & coaching staff. The only team in the top-tier of the Malaysian league without foreign players - DSVE joins us on the program as he shares his vision and mission to bring back the glory days of local football.
