PAPUA - West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil, who was present in Papua for the XX PON, praised the implementation of this multi-branch sporting event. Kang Emil, Ridwan Kamil's nickname, said that this sporting event was managed professionally.

"It's very good, the implementation is professional, the residents are also very friendly, the culinary tour is also very extraordinary, I eat fish and sago caterpillars," said Kang Emil after watching the West Java women's sepak takraw team compete at the Trikora GOR, Cenderawasih University, Jayapura, Antara, Sunday, October 3rd.

As reported by the PON XX public relations page, Kang Emil arrived in Jayapura since last Friday, October 1. He admitted that he was very satisfied with the implementation of the XX Papua PON 2021. Regarding the complaints from several contingents of XX PON participants over various existing problems, he considered it a normal thing. Even the West Java contingent, he admitted, also felt that there were some shortcomings in the implementation of the Papua PON, but he considered this to be understandable.

"There is a shortage here and there, I think it's natural, it's okay to complain a little," he said.

For the opening ceremony of PON XX 2021, Kang Emil, who was present at the Lukas Enembe Stadium, admitted that he was very impressed with the series of entertainment displayed.

There are even certain moments that he considers very touching. "Spectacular, my eyes are a little watery from being touched," said Kang Emil.
