Former Exco PSSI: The Decree Of The Minister Of Youth And Sports, Nyalon Deputy, Can't Elopt, If You Withdraw From The Minister, You Will Be Better Off

JAKARTA - Former member of the PSSI Executive Committee, Toni Apriliani, assessed that the decision of the Minister of Youth and Sports (Menpora) Zainudin Amali to register as a candidate for chairman was really not good.

Amali's name appeared on the list of candidates for deputy chairman who were announced by the Election Committee (KP) on Monday, January 16. He will compete with 20 other names who also register.

Actually, it is legal for the Menpora to progress because it has a track record in the world of sports. However, as a Menpora who is a sports coach for all branches, Zainudin should not have jumped into one federation.

"Especially for the Deputy candidate, Menpora, it's not very good in my opinion. He is the father of a sports federation, both professional and amateur. Everyone goes there," Tony said when contacted by VOI, Friday.

Tony said that perhaps Amali's goal was good for the sake of improving national football. However, his current position is a minister, so it was a bit surprising that he decided to run as deputy chairman.

"He wants to be in a representative position too. This is unethical. On the one hand. On the other hand, other federations can be jealous. However, that doesn't mean he can't. He has track records and flying hours. If he resigns from the minister it will be better," he said.

Currently, the KP is still in the process of verifying the names of the registrant candidates for general chairman, the candidate for deputy chairman, and the executive committee. Provisional candidates will appear after the process.

If any registrants are declared to have failed in the verification process, they will be given the opportunity to appeal from February 1-3. This appeal will be facilitated by the Electoral Appeal Committee (KBP).

After all the process is complete, the KP will announce a permanent candidate on February 6, following the Extraordinary Congress (KLB) for the election of chairman, vice chairman, and executive committee ten days later.
