As Malaysian players face uncertainties, ex-Malaysia international Hairuddin Omar has urged them to mull over their post-retirement financial safety.
In the advertisement for his AdeqSue range of food pastes, Hairuddin Omar was a picture of goofiness. Instead of the chrome dome he had been sporting for most of his career, the former Malaysia international is seen with long, flowing hair. Sporting a stylish, form-fitting t-shirt and jeans while posing with a black guitar, he looked like a typical now middle-aged, late 80's, early 90's Malay rock star.
Next to him, the phrase kaki goreng (frying enthusiast) appeared, a Malay wordplay on the act of frying food, as well as that of playing a guitar solo.
