Brunei Merdeka Games 1987

Held in Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei, 19th - 26th July 1987

The tournament was also referred to as the Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah Cup, or 
 the third Brunei Pesta Sukan Cup.

Notes: Malaysia was represented by Johor, Singapore by the national reserve squad (B team),
       and Indonesia by PSIS (Semarang). The standard of the Thai team is not clear - it was
       almost certainly not the full national team.
