Like Jakarta, Anies Will Build A FIFA Standard Football Field In Maluku

Presidential candidate number 1, Anies Baswedan promised to build a FIFA standard football field in Maluku Province. This international standard field will be built as Anies inaugurated in Jakarta.

Anies' desire to build a jola soccer field in the middle of this village was said to be at Anies' Desak event which was held at Beby Indah Beach, Ambon City, Maluku.

"We want this football to grow. So, what are we doing? We will build football fields in villages with FIFA standards," said Anies, Monday, January 15.

In fact, the FIFA standard football field promised by Anies if he wins the 2024 presidential election, it will be operationalized free of charge for the public.

"This is the people's soccer field, the grass is FIFA standard with spectator stands and this is free of use by the people," he said.

According to Anies, Maluku has great potential to develop children's abilities in playing football. With soccer field facilities provided by the government, Anies hopes that many soccer athletes will come from provinces in eastern Indonesia.

"So that with competition we will be able to grow potential seeds to become great players," explained Anies.

"In terms of competition, he runs all the time throughout the year. That's what we want to do here. We hope that later the potential for Maluku children to play football will grow and be able to bring Maluku's good name, Indonesia's good name," he continued.

The potential birth of this soccer athlete, according to Anies, can be obtained from the community who live in the village areas. That's why Anies chose to build a field in the middle of the village.

"Let our children, even though their family backgrounds are not yet prosperous, they can experience playing football on the field which is equivalent to the fields used in international stadiums around the world," he added.
