There are a total of 11 announced bids, including combined bids, for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, FIFA said Tuesday after the deadline for candidates expired on Monday.
England, Australia, joint bids from Belgium/Netherlands and Spain/Portugal, also the USA, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico and Russia have applied for both tournaments while South Korea and Qatar have targeted solely 2022.
"We are very satisfied with the enormous enthusiasm which our top competition has engendered and to see that all the countries who initially declared their interest have officially confirmed their bids," said FIFA president Sepp Blatter.
Wow...did you see the list??? Indonesia is one of the bidder??? What about our very own country Malaysia? Isn't we have the Malaysia Boleh spirit? I believe we are much more wealthier than our neighbour country...so why not??? Actually it's a good thing also we didn't submit any bid, since I don't see any reason how are we gonna be capable of staging the world biggest event. Furthermore, with our current sorry state of football level, it's better that we keep quiet and stay sidelines...
