This morning, May 24, the media simultaneously reported that the leaders of Binh Minh Company - the main sponsor of Ho Chi Minh City Club - sent a petition to the People's Committee and departments of Ho Chi Minh City, requesting to consider the billboards in some areas of the city that local leaders had promised to deploy to raise funds to support the team, but so far have not been able to do so.
Because of financial difficulties, the leaders of Binh Minh Company threatened to dissolve Ho Chi Minh City Club if their demands were not met within the next 30 days from the date of sending the document on May 17, 2018.
