JAKARTA - The PSSI Extraordinary Congress which has scheduled the election of the general chairman and members of the executive committee will be held in February. However, the process has started from now on.

Usually, the election process will be handled by the Election Committee (KP) and the Election Appeal Committee (KBP). However, the two committees will only be formed at the Extraordinary Congress which will only be held on January 14.

PSSI Secretary General Yunus Nusi said the process of selecting prospective members of the PSSI Executive Committee for the 2023-2027 period, including the general chairman, would be temporarily handled by the secretary general.

"In time, everything was immediately taken over by the elected KP and KBP," said Yunus in his official statement.

Yunus claimed that FIFA had approved this step because it was still in the early stages, namely the administrative stage. Later, the process will be continued by KP and KBP.

"This cannot be separated from FIFA's approval. FIFA has no problem with it because the administrative process is the initial stage," said Yunus.

PSSI has issued a letter regarding "Submission of the Stages of the Extraordinary PSSI Election Congress and the PSSI Candidate Criteria for the PSSI Executive Committee to PSSI Members" on November 16, 2022. The letter is addressed to all PSSI voters (voters) including the Provincial Association.
