S'pore simply does not qualify to host the World Cup since we do not have the required stadiums and infrastructure. A host must possess a minimum of 14 all-seater stadiums with a minimum capacity of 40,000 seats for the Group stage and early knockout stages, a minimum capacity of 60,000 seats for the Semi-Finals as well as a minimum capacity of 80,000 seats for the opening game and Final. Stadium stands must be fully covered by a roof so only the National Stadium qualifies. Pitches must feature natural grass incorporating hybrid reinforcement and ventilation systems. Stadiums must also be handed over to FIFA for an exclusive-use from 30 days before the opening match until 7 days after their last tournament use.

An excellent opportunity to revitalise football in S'pore and the region could lie in a joint bid to host the World Cup in by S'pore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. These Asean nations may showcase our ability to manage a mega global event with aplomb. Owing to the substantially higher cost and more complex infrastructure required to host an expanded tournament involving 48 nations, it makes sense for up to 4 countries to share hosting duties.

Wow...

Coordinating a successful tournament will help S'pore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand enjoy economic benefits and a similar uplift to our respective national images, strengthen us as allies and help us transcend the sometimes prickly relations that exist between neighbours. A plethora of responsibilities need to be shared to ensure the smooth running of operations, which will include ease of access to stadiums over four countries. The co-ordination of systems must not impede or duplicate that of any of the co-hosts.
