KUALA TERENGGANU – The Terengganu government has declared September 11 as an occasional holiday for the state in conjunction with the FA Cup 2022 final between Terengganu FC (TFC) and Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT).

Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar said the occasional holiday is to provide comfort for TFC supporters who will be returning home after the match at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil, which is scheduled to take place at 9pm on September 10.

“Plan your journey home properly. There is no need to rush because you have ample time to do so,” he said in a statement uploaded on his Facebook account today.

In the meantime, Samsuri said the state government hopes that TFC supporters will prioritise their safety, not get involved in any untoward incidents and always show good morals and manners as Terengganu citizens when watching the match.

“To the people’s favourite team Terengganu FC, I hope the players can give full focus and their best performance, thus realising our hope to bring home the FA Cup accompanied by thousands of supporters to Terengganu. Insya Allah,” he said. – Bernama, August 28, 2022
