JAKARTA - The National Police Chief, General Listyo Sigit Prabowo, admitted that only a few members understood the regulations for organizing football. Thus, security management is considered a new thing.

"This is certainly a new thing for us because frankly some time ago there were few members of our understanding of these rules," General Sigit told reporters, Wednesday, February 1.

In fact, the lack of understanding of football security management resulted in a fatal incident at the Kanjuruhan Stadium, Malang. Where, hundreds of Aremania became victims of death.

Therefore, security management training is important. Thus, the fatal incident did not happen again.

"There is an incident like it or not, we must immediately make changes quickly," he said.

The changes made include issuing Police Regulation (Perpol) Number 10 of 2022 concerning securing maximum sports matches, including football matches.

In addition, by violating training by involving instructors from Conventry University, England.

"We also continue to strive to continue to improve our capabilities," said Sigit
