The Guardian reports:
Manchester United have called off the Indonesian leg of their Far East tour following two bomb blasts at tourist hotels in Jakarta. United arrived in Kuala Lumpur this morning to news of the explosions in the Indonesian capital, one of which took place at the Ritz-Carlton, the hotel in which the Premier League champions were to be staying for four nights from tomorrow. At least nine people have been killed and 50 injured in the attacks at that and another luxury hotel in Jakarta.
Fergie said "We got the news as we landed and it is very disappointing. I have never been to Indonesia before and I know the Indonesian FA have worked very hard on this. It is terrible news but we have taken what I believe to be the right decision in terms of safeguarding our players."
Whilst Gill added "We have taken the appropriate advice. We have met with the British High Commission who are highly experienced in these matters. It is not a decision we have taken lightly."
