My Uncle, the footballer.

Kampong Kapor left me with beautiful memories of my childhood life. It was the place I grew up. The playing ground of my aunties and uncles. Two of my youngest uncles used to bring me along with them to the playground situated in the premises of the Kampong Kapor Community Centre. They left me and my sisters at the playground while they played football in the small patch of field across it.

My two uncles grew up to be teenage footballers playing for a soccer team called the Spider. One of them, Ahmad Sayuti, made it to the Youth Team representing Singapore. He is my mother's youngest brother. Subsequently, my uncle was selected to play for the Singapore National Football team, playing along-side players such as Dollah Kassim, Mohammad Noh, Hashim Hosni and many others. He was then working as a technician with Electrolux. Later on at the peak of his football career, he was offered to join Grodningen FC, a football club in Holland, along with Fandi Ahmad. However, he turned down the offer and moved on with his life without football. Instead, he concentrated on his job, working for Electrolux and later on he joined Guthrie.

Ahmad Sayuti has two sons, Zazar and Ziki. Both were intelligent boys and good in their academic studies. They are now young fine adults.
