Jaguars legend Samawira Basri celebrates his 42nd birthday today.

Wira, as he is commonly known, was part of the squad that won the Singapore and FA Cup double in 1998. He was also the vice captain of the team.

Other than winning the cup double, the highlight of Wira’s career would definitely be the friendly game against Tottenham Hotspur when they visited Singapore in 1995. Wira scored the opening goal of the game for the Singapore National Team and the team subsequently won the game on penalty shootout.

Tanjong Pagar United and its supporters wish Wira many happy returns on this special day.
