For this year's tournment, we are pleased to welcome friends from Bahrain, Brunei, China, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, South Korea and Thailand.

I em told that previous tournaments have always been keenly contested. This year, the Football Association of Singapore has put in a lot of effort to prepare the two Singapore teams and I hope they will perform better than previous years. I am pleased to note the good attendance at tonight's tournament. It is natural for home crowds all over the world to give the added support end inspirations to the home teams. However, I would like to see them cheer good soccer tactics and play - especially for the visiting teams. We in Singapore not only encourage friendly rivalry in competitive sports but also encourage mutual exchange of social and cultural views. Given the correct spirit and sportsmanship, the tournament will no doubt promote international understanding and goodwill.
