Surabaya Mayor Eri Cahyadi is ready to accompany Persebaya supporters or who are familiarly called Bonek, towards the postponement match of PSIS Semarang against Persebaya Surabaya at Jatidiri Stadium, Semarang, Central Java, Wednesday, March 29.
Head of the Surabaya City Culture, Youth and Sports and Tourism Office (Disbudporapar) Wiwiek Widayati said Mayor Eri Cahyadi would directly escort and accompany a group of supporters from Surabaya City to Semarang City.
"He (the mayor) wants the Tret Tet culture to be revived. Mayor Eri said that Bonek has changed and he hopes that Bonek will be orderly because of the saklawase (brotherhood forever)," Wiwiek said as quoted by Antara, Sunday, March 26.
According to him, the Surabaya City Government (Pemkot) is committed to protecting, and maintaining Bonek's good name in supporting the Surabaya Persebaya Team, as well as the good name of the City of Surabaya.
This is done to anticipate things that are not desirable, one of which is the incident in Semarang City on Wednesday (8/2), namely that there were people wearing the attributes of the Bajol Ijo Team supporters who carried out disgraceful actions and disturbed residents.
Therefore, he continued, the Surabaya City Government again held a meeting with the coordinators of each stands and Persebaya management representatives at Balai Surabaya on Saturday (25/3).
The meeting was a follow-up to the Surabaya City Government after attending a coordination meeting on the preparation for the Security of the BRI Liga 1 Match between PSIS Semarang and Persebaya Surabaya, together with Semarang Mayor Iswar Aminuddin, the organizing committee for the match, as well as the police, which was held online on Friday (24/3).
Wiwiek admitted that during the meeting, they exchanged ideas in discussing the technical departure of the supporters to the arena of the match matches. This is because the organizing committee provides an allocation of 1,000 special tickets for Persebaya Surabaya supporters.
"We are coordinating with the tribune coordinator about the departure mechanism. Of course, to send Bonek friends to Semarang, it can run smoothly. We see that actually these tribune coordinators are also very professional, meaning that they have often carried out activities for the departure of Bonek," he said.
Furthermore, he explained that the coordination meeting for the Preparation for the Security of the BRI League 1 PSIS Semarang VS Persebaya Surabaya, between the Surabaya City Government and the Semarang City Government will be held again.
"The discussion mechanism on Friday (24/3) did not invite the stands coordinator. So if tomorrow Monday (27/3) there is a meeting (coordinator meeting), hopefully the stands coordinator can provide input to maintain security and comfort during matches," he said.
Meanwhile, one of the coordinators of the Husain Gozali stands expressed his gratitude to Mayor Eri and the Surabaya City Government who continue to provide facilities to Bonek, every Persebaya Surabaya competes.
"We will re-culterate Tret Tet. We started again in the 1990s that Bonek was orderly. Because after all Tret Tet Tet is the forerunner of Bonek," said Cak Conk, his nickname.
For this reason, Cak Conk together with other tribune coordinators will campaign to become good supporters, as an effort to maintain the good names of the cities of Surabaya, Bonek, and Persebaya Surabaya.
"We synergize with related parties so that Bonek's friends can be orderly and become good Persebaya supporters. We will campaign to be good supporters to support Persebaya wherever they are, we will orderly maintain the good name of Surabaya, Bonek, and Persebaya," he said.
