Heartache losing the AFF Cup U-19 event was still imprinted and difficult to get rid of. Moreover, the defeat of Malaysia, the enemy disguised Indonesia in the realm of football since time immemorial. Like it or not Malaysia is always superior in the football sector from Indonesia.
This is not the first defeat of Indonesian football from Malaysia. Just look at the 2017 AFF U-22 Cup, Indonesia also lost to Malaysia in the qualifying round with a painful score of 0-3.
Indonesia also returned not to do anything when dealing with Malaysia at the Sea Games 2017 in the following month after the U-22 defeat. Indonesia again lost with a thin score of 1-0. But it broke down the dream of Indonesia to win gold by beating Malaysia.
In addition to the football scene, if compared to Malaysia Indonesia also offers in the tourism sector. This is not a figment, and for years Indonesia has been defeated by the number of tourist visits.
the number of foreign tourists visiting Malaysia in 2017 reached 25 million, while in Indonesia only half of them were 14 million foreign tourists.
It is possible that Indonesia claims to have a tourist charm that is far more beautiful than Malaysia. But about the matter of packaging and promotion of Malaysia, the champion. In Malaysia there are many things that Indonesia does not have, for example Legoland as a world class vehicle for Universal Studios or Disneyland to highland tiles as the largest casino in Southeast Asia.
Even so with halal tourism that is being loved, Malaysia has for many years perched as one Muslim destination in the world. While Indonesia has not been able to catch up despite experiencing a ranking increase from 4 to 2 below Malaysia.
