NB: competition restricted to 14 countries considered 'mature' in
the so-called 'Vision Asia' paper of AFC President Mohamed
Bin Hammam. The so-called 14 'developing' countries have
their clubs relegated to the AFC Cup, while the clubs from
the 'emerging' countries are dumped into the new Presidents Cup.
Compared to 2004, Syria were promoted to 'mature' (after both
their representatives had reached the AFC Cup 2004 final) while
Bahrain were excluded from competitions 2005, following the
withdrawal of both their Champions' League entrants 2004.
The lucky countries are:
Central and West Asia (8): Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar,
Saudi Arabia, Syria, UAE, Uzbekistan
East Asia (6): China, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Thailand,
Vietnam

The following 17 AFC members were denied participation of their clubs in the Champions League and AFC Cup, apparently on the grounds of not being considered either 'mature' or 'developing' in the so-called 'Vision Asia' paper: Afghanistan, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, East Timor, Guam, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Macao, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Palestine, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Taiwan and Tajikistan. These 'emerging' nations will be invited to enter their national team in the bi-annual AFC Challenge Cup starting in 2006. In addition, the 'AFC Presidents Cup' for club teams from these countries will start in May 2005. Of the eligible countries, nine apparently declined the invitation: Afghanistan, Brunei, East Timor, Guam, Laos, Macao, Mongolia, Palestine and the Philippines.
