JAKARTA - Boxer from Papua, Geisler Ap is waiting for the full support of the government after winning the WBC Kontinental Asia title in Bangkok, Thailand, Saturday, March 29, 2025.
Geisler Ap to date has the main sponsor of Kaka Besar Paulus Waterpauw who is assisted by the local government.
This support is still considered insufficient for Geisler, who has made Indonesia proud in the international world.
"There is no Minister of Youth and Sports yet. There is no support yet, there is no sponsor from them," said Geisler.
"I really hope there will be attention from the central government, but until now there has not been any," he added.
