"Today's meeting should have an impact for them (organizers) to be more careful," said Nirmala when contacted by VOI, Monday, November 29.

Nirmala hopes that the organizers can make the best possible preparations. He also did not want the previous incident to be taken lightly so that it was repeated a second time.

"(Lebanon) don't mess with our team, everyone has to play fairly. From the preparation, technical and non-technical, everything is okay," Nirmala added.

In this second meeting, the Indonesian basketball national team was asked to host, with that opportunity the national team should be able to prove positive results. Moreover, in the previous meeting they actually lost far to Lebanon with a score of 38-96.
