A thread to post news in Karasem or related to Karasem.

Kota Baru - The head of KSA, Malik Setiawan, as his speech to the pers yesterday said Karasem national team now had some new players come from several nation in Europe and south america whose had to be play in Karasem Star League (Liga Bintang Karasem/LBK). This act taken to increase the national team strength for the upcoming 2010 SEA games. The new players including: Andrew Martí used to play in PSM Meriah, Patrício Aldo used to play in Cibebek FC, Ulysses Faustin used to play in Perseket Ketapang, and Eko Bellic used to play in PSM Meriah. They were converted into Karasem citizens yesterday before enter the Karasem National team

I thought people on National team were only citizens of that nation...

Surely that's cheating? And incredibly unrealistic. You aren't allowed to make people citizens to get them into the national squad, that's got to be political interference - and we saw what happened to nations who did that during the World Cup.

How that became cheating and unrealistic? Before read my post it's better to see some SE asian countries who do this too.
They arent a foreigner who being payed by government. They're be Karasem citizens with their own decision. The new players is a local team player who already played there for atleast 5 years and also they have Karaseman (Karasem citizen) parents or wife so they can easily enter national team. They just went outside Karasem for studying or other reasonable reason.
