History

Abdul Kadir coached the Krama Yudha Tiga Berlian and helped them finish third in the 1985–86 Asian Club Championship. When Krama Yudha Tiga Berlian joined in Group A along with Al-Ahli and East Bengal, Krama Yudha Tiga Berlian finished second in the group stage to ensure qualification for the semi-final. In the semi-final, Krama Yudha Tiga Berlian lost 3–0 to the Daewoo Royals. In the third place playoff match, Krama Yudha defeated Al-Ittihad 1–0. The club dissolved in 1991 due to financial difficulties.

The namesake company was split in 2017 where sales and production of Mitsubishi passenger cars were spun off to a new company, Mitsubishi Motors Krama Yudha Indonesia, leaving PT Krama Yudha Tiga Berlian with sales and production of Mitsubishi Fuso trucks. ^{[1] [2]}
