JAKARTA - The process of taking the oath of Indonesian citizens (WNI) for Jordi Amat and Sandy Walsh was completed on Thursday, November 17 at the DKI Jakarta Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham) on Jalan MT Haryono, Cawang. This event took place starting at 13.00 WIB and went smoothly.

The enthusiasm and determination of Jordy Amat and Sandy Walsh to become Indonesian citizens seems so passionate. It can be seen when both of them are very fluent in singing the national anthem of Indonesia Raya ahead of the reading of the oath.

Jordi Amat and Sandy Walsh appeared in a suit complete with a black cap. In the process of taking the oath of Indonesian citizens, Sandy and Jordy underwent two main processes, namely taking the oath which was followed by the signing of the file.

Before the main process took place, the event started by singing the national anthem Indonesia Raya. At this moment, Sandy and Jordi seemed fluent in singing the lyrics and full of soul with a happy face.

The moment when Sandy and Jordi sang the song Indonesia Raya received attention from the Head of the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, Ibnu Chuldun. When giving a speech and congratulations, he appreciated Sandy and Jordi's actions.

"Let me say, now you have citizenship as Indonesian citizens. Before the oath, at the beginning of you (Sandy and Jordi) I saw that you memorized and were fluent in singing the anthem Indonesia Raya. Hopefully, it will be the first form of love for the country, Indonesia, yes," said Ibnu Chuldun.

"Hopefully your presence and status as Indonesian citizens can pave the way for you to excel, especially in the field of soccer to bring the good name of Indonesia," hoped the Head of the Regional Office, which was greeted with a smile from the two naturalized players.

Prior to undergoing the process of taking the oath of Indonesian citizens, Sandy Walsh and Jordi Amat had received a Decree of the President of the Republic of Indonesia (Keppres) which had been signed by Joko Widodo. The Presidential Decree on behalf of Sandy is number five (5) while Jordi is number six (6).
