Controversy

On 3 May 2012, Tan Sri Annuar Musa was suspended from taking part in any football activities in Kelantan where he is the President. The Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) disciplinary committee found Annuar's negative statement against the national football team on 12 Feb had breached the status of FAM's Article 88 (2010-2014). FAM's Article 88 states that only the president and the secretary-general can comment on the national team's performance.[3]

In 2016, Annuar's decision to quit as Kafa president during Kelantan football team, The Red Warriors (TRW) was going through bad performances and the financial problem of settling outstanding footballers and even coach salaries was questioned by many who had likened him to "the captain abandoning his sinking ship".[1][4][5][6][7][8]

Annuar embroiled himself in a rocky conflict and contentious relationship with the Crown Prince of Johor Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim, another potential FAM presidency candidate; in the run-up to the FAM election in 2017.[9] Tunku Ismail has alleged that a certain "Tan Sri", apparently was referring to Annuar, who is Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA) chairman had forced its entities to sponsor Kafa. In a Facebook post on 12 January 2017, Tunku Ismail has revealed photographs of documents showing sponsorship to Kafa; a RM500,000 by Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL) and an additional RM200,000 by Mara Investment Berhad (PMB); both subsidiries of MARA.[10] On 31 January 2017, MARA announced Annuar has been suspended and asked to go on leave as MARA chairman and PMB head pending an internal investigation and audit is conducted into allegations made against him.[11][12] Suspended Annuar also was quizzed by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for four hours on 3 February 2017.[13][14][15]

Annuar pulled out from the 2017 FAM presidency election lastly citing the reason to focus on his political obligation.[16] He also did not renew his MARA chairman contract ended on 11 August 2017 amid still under suspension.[17] Eventually MACC too decided not to press charges against him due to the allegations insufficient evidence.[18]
