The General Chairperson of the Central PWI, Hendry Ch Bangun, also appreciated the support of the Governor of South Kalimantan Sahbirin Noor, especially in the construction of the Gelora Uncle Birin. "Porwanas is the first event to take advantage of this GOR," said Hendry Bangun. This support is also the reason SIWO PWI Pusat gave an award to South Kalimantan Governor Sahbirin Noor as Head of Sports Care Area.
One of the privileges of Porwanas XIV is the first time that journalistic works have been made into a contested sport. Hendry Bangun hopes that through Porwanas XIV which is attended by 38 PWI contingents throughout Indonesia, the potential and development in South Kalimantan can be better known, especially through unique photos and quality journalistic works that raise the Ecopark Meratus tourist attraction.
The opening ceremony of Porwanas XIV was also attended by the Head of the South Kalimantan PKK Mobilization Team Hj Raudatul Jannah, Deputy General Chairperson of the Tursandi Central KONI, and the KOI Executive Committee Hifni Hasan.
