Malaysia Super League (Malay: Liga Super Malaysia) is a Malaysian professional football league for state football association (FA) teams and clubs. It is at the top flight of the Malaysian League and managed by Football Association of Malaysia. The league is contested between 12 teams and operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the Malaysian Premier League. The 12 clubs participating in this top flight league need to pass a set of requirements and verification process, primarily related to professionalism and infrastructure feasibility. It was previously known as the Semi-Pro League from 1989 to 1993 and the Malaysian League (Liga-M) from 1993 to 2004. The competition formed in 2004 following the decision by the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) to privatise the league, but it was not fully privatised. As a result, MSL Sendirian Berhad (or MSL Proprietary Limited) was created to oversee the marketing aspects of the league. Since 1979, a total of 12 clubs have been crowned champions of Malaysia's top tier football league. Since the inception of the Super League in 2004, six teams have won the title: Kedah (2), Selangor (2), Kelantan (2), Johor DT (2), Pahang (1), Perlis (1), N.Sembilan (1), and LionsXII, (1) . The current champions are Johor DT, who won the title in 2015. ==History== (詳細はMalaysia Cup. It was not until 1982 that a League Cup was introduced to recognise the winners of the preliminary stage as the league champions.

However, Singapore was subsequently re-invited into the league for the 2012 season and participated under the name Lions XII. In recent years, top Malaysian club teams have also been admitted to the league competition.
