JAKARTA - The All-Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) was asked to be open with input and recommendations from the Independent Team of Fact Findings led by the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs, Mahfud MD.

The team, which contains several elements, including football players and observers, has the task of investigating the Malang Kanjuruhan tragedy case. Later, TGIPF will issue a recommendation.

"Make it input and then carry it out. Anyone will definitely want the football competition in the country to be better," said the former chairman of PSSI, Agum Gumelar, on the official federation website.

Agum said competition was the heart of football. For that, the competition must go well and correctly.

"If there is no competition, it's bland. That's why a good competition will produce a good national team too," he said again.

Meanwhile, Agum also asked PSSI chairman Mochamad Iriawan to resolve the tragedy case of Kanjuruhan Malang to completion. According to him, resigning from office is not an answer.

"Indeed, as a form of responsibility as the General Chair of PSSI, he should not resign. He must complete this case," said the PSSI Board of Trustees.

Iwan Bule was asked to make this problem a lesson for the future so that the competition could be even better.
