In order to support athletes taking part at the foreign level, Member of Committee III DPD RI West Java electoral district Agita Nurfianti initiated an audience between the All-Indonesian Roller Skate Sports Association (Perserosi) and the West Java Provincial Government (Pemprov).
Agita, quoted from ANTARA, Saturday, July 19, said the audience was to support the development of roller skating in Indonesia, especially in West Java, considering that West Java athletes also want to take part at the international level.
"We are discussing the duties and functions of Committee III DPD RI, one of which is youth and sports. This is one of the sports that we need to support. Maybe it is not too visible to many people, unlike football, which has more interest, but this is one of the sports that carry the name of Indonesia, not only the name of West Java, through West Java athletes. So I audit meetings between the Company and the local government," said Agita.
Furthermore, Agita hopes that the Company will convey its aspirations to the West Java Provincial Government as during the hearing on Friday (18/7) attended by West Java Deputy Governor Erwan Setiawan, accompanied by the Head of the West Java Province Regional Development Planning Agency (Bappeda) Dedi Mulyadi and the Head of the West Java Youth and Sports Agency (Dispora) Hery Antasari, for the development of the sport.
Chairman of the West Java Perserosi Provincial Management Abdul Haris Sugondo conveyed that West Java athletes wanted to make Indonesia proud in the world of roller skating championships, such as tournaments in Korea 19-24 July 2025, and Japan, 20-23 November 2025.
"We also ask for the support of the West Java Provincial Government for the improvement and improvement of the facilities and infrastructure of the sport," said Abdul.

Meanwhile, Erwan Setiawan said that his party had submitted funds from Bappeda, but I could not directly go to certain sports, but through the Indonesian National Sports Committee (KONI) of West Java Province.
"Furthermore, KONI will arrange the funds for their respective sports," he said.
However, the West Java Provincial Government still supports the participation of West Java athletes in world tournaments. If possible, it will encourage Bank BJB Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), one of the Regional Owned Enterprises, to finance participation in the international championship.
"Therefore, the Perserosi will immediately submit proposals known to the Deputy Governor, Regional Secretary, and Head of Bappeda," he said.
Meanwhile, regarding the repair and development of facilities and infrastructure for roller skating, Erwan acknowledged that there was a lack of budget, so he encouraged the application to the private CSR as one solution.
He also said that Dispora was identifying various needs for improving these facilities. He will ask Dispora to speed up the identification process in order to follow up on the most priority needs.
In addition to taking part in foreign countries, Erwan also hopes that West Java athletes can win gold at the 2028 National Sports Week. For this reason, he asked the West Java Company to prepare productive athletes, as well as superior seeds from West Java.
Meanwhile, Agita hopes that the results of the hearing between the Perserosi and the West Java Provincial Government can be followed up properly, in order to achieve the expectations and targets that have been set.
