He coached the club for two years, after which it was relegated to Division Two till 1987. In 1988, Jurong Town was back in the top division and sponsored by Japan Airlines, the first company to come into a domestic competition with $100,000 sponsorship. This sponsorship helped the club to engage players like V. Sundramoorthy, Jeffrey Lazaroo, A.R.J. Mani, K Kannan, D. Tokijan and Lim Chiew Peng. Nazri Nasir and Lim Tong Hai who joined at the age of 16. Jurong Town won the President's Cup in that year and D. Tokijan was awarded the top scorer for the year.
