    We all love watching Premier League and we Indonesian have big PL fans club. But please don’t bring “alcoholism” culture to our country, that’s not part of our core religious nation culture

    I remember Watching Chelsea FC live in Jakarta in 2013. All my childhood heroes like Lampard and Hazard was there too. Although Indonesian team got defeated by 1-8, but i was so Happy at that time. Thank you Chelsea FC and Premier league 😘😘

    And the funny thing is that the Premier League teams prefer Singapore, where there is almost no football culture at all. And yes, the Singapore government uses those clubs just to make money from its neighboring country.
