Women's World Cup Disappointed to just get back to Malaysia to discover that WWC is not being shown on ASTRO, UNIFI TV or FTA. Anyone know why?

    TIL the bidding for broadcasting rights was quite controversial. FIFA rejected a lot of low bids, which is one of the reasons why Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand did not have official broadcaster for the Women's World Cup.

    Still think those 3 countries had other priorities to spend media coverage on during the tournament period. You got a point.
