If, as seems likely, Perry plays for Singapore then he will probably be the team's star player.
Football is huge in Singapore (and Malaysia!) so if Perry rejuvenates the national team and helps them to win titles then he will be a famous man in all of the ASEAN nations.
One of my favourite places I’ve been.
Everyone I know who’s been has said the same. I’ve never been sadly.Quote:

This may seem like a silly question, but if he becomes a Signapore Citazen then he will not be British. Does that mean will need to apply for a work visa and international clearannce for him to play for us? As you cannot have dual citazenship in Singapore
One of the weirdest places I’ve been. (It was a while ago).Quote:

Re Singapore, yes you can't have dual-nationality so I wonder if that has any consequences for Cardiff. They have national service for all ~18-20 year old boys in Singapore so are pretty strict about giving passports away to foreigners (who they think have tried to dodge/skip the service)
