JAKARTA - Hundreds of residents from various regions took the time to watch the convoy of the Mandalika MotoGP Parade in the Hotel Indonesia (HI) Roundabout area, Menteng District, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, March 16.
Residents are willing to cram along the side of Jalan MH Thamrin towards the HI Roundabout to witness firsthand the roar of the engine from the MotoGP.
Hanafi Edi Saputra, one of the employees of a private bank in the Sudirman area, is one of them. In the midst of his busy life as a private employee, he deliberately took the time to watch the MotoGP convoy parade.
Moreover, the parade took place near his residence in the Menteng area, Central Jakarta. Hanafi deliberately came to the HI Roundabout area while taking a selfie.
"People's enthusiasm is very high because maybe this is the first time in Indonesia for a MotoGP performance. I really appreciate the Indonesian government for being able to hold the first MotoGP and parade in Indonesia," Hanafi told VOI at the HI Roundabout, Jakarta, Wednesday, March 16.
The young man from Menteng hopes that this moment can be repeated in Indonesia, especially in Jakarta. Because according to him, the MotoGP parade can be a special attraction for the people of Indonesia. It can even be a selling point in the international arena.
"Hopefully this moment can be repeated every year, because this increases the value of the Indonesian market to be known throughout the world," he said.
In addition to providing entertainment for the community, the impact of the MotoGP convoy parade can also have a positive effect on MSME actors around the HI Roundabout.
Meanwhile, Sisca Rumondor (50), another visitor, admitted that she had come from her house in East Jakarta on purpose.
"I came from home on purpose. Because many roads were closed, so I had to take an online motorcycle taxi so I could get to the HI roundabout on time. I was on standby here at 09.00 WIB," said the woman who was very enthusiastic to see the parade.
Sisca was surprised when she was at the HI Roundabout, it turned out that the MotoGP group came from the Monas area and passed in front of her.
"Apparently they came in and passed here. We thought we just wanted to play, right. We'd be surprised if it turned out that all of them actually passed us, we can see Caucasians like that. We can see the racers who will compete at the Mandalika circuit now, I guess." wow 'that's really like that," said Sisca with a radiant face.
Sisca was also amazed when she heard the roar of a motorbike with a large (cc) capacity passing beside her ears.
"I can imagine what the atmosphere in Mandalika will be like, this is an honor for us Indonesian people to be able to hold an event of an international scale for the first time," he said.
Meanwhile, Dirlantas Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Pol Sambodo Purnomo Yogo said the MotoGP convoy parade was attended by 20 MotoGP riders in the main line group.
"Then 60 factory racers and a third group of 300 to 500 motorcycle communities in Jakarta. All the stars are from in front of the Merdeka Palace, Gambir, Central Jakarta," said Kombes Pol Sambodo.
