• Joko Driyono will be Acting Chairman after Edy Rahmayadi resigned as Chairman of the Indonesian football association (PSSI). “I have resigned not because I am irresponsible, but because I am responsible”, said Rahmayadi in a statement. Late last year, the PSSI banned second division club PS Mojokerto Putra from the upcoming season, after finding it guilty of fixing three matches. The PSSI determined that the club had fixed games against Kalteng Putra on 3 and 9 November, as well as a 29 November game against Gresik United. It also issued a life ban to PS Mojokerto Putra striker Krisna Ari Darma, as he was found to have intentionally missed a penalty in a 19 November game against Aceh United. The PSSI also confirmed that Johar Lin Eng, a member of its Executive Committee, is facing investigation by the police over match-fixing allegations.
