Incidents
Two Singaporeans and one Malaysian were arrested for attempting to fix a group stage game between Singapore and the Philippines. The three reportedly tried to bribe Filipino defender Judy Saluria for his side to concede seven goals so that Singapore can advance to the next round.{{cite news|last1=Hernandez|first1=Jon|title=RP eleven nets nothing but three game fixers|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=a5QVAAAAIBAJ&sjid=iwsEAAAAIBAJ&pg=6056%2C3550784|access-date=26 March 2015|publisher=Manila Standard Today|date=22 September 1996}}
