A prison officer by profession (as Malaysia football is not professional at his time), Krishnasamy represented Prison Department, Penang FA and Perak FA during his football career.[2][3][4] He also played for Malaysia national team, and competed in the men's tournament at the 1972 Summer Olympics.[5][6][7]
In 2004, he was inducted in Olympic Council of Malaysia's Hall of Fame for 1972 Summer Olympics football team.[8]
