JAKARTA - The naturalization process for Shayne Pattynama will soon be completed. Shayne is just undergoing the oath process of Indonesian citizens (WNI) which will take place next week.

This good news was shared directly by the General Chairperson of PSSI, Mochamad Iriawan. Through his Instagram account, Iriawan reported that Shayne would undergo the Indonesian citizen oath process at the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in DKI Jakarta on January 24.

"Thank God, on this blessed Friday I received information from Bung Hamdan Hamedan that Shayne Pattynama's naturalization process has reached the last step. God willing, Shayne will take the oath to become an Indonesian citizen on Tuesday, January 24, 2023," wrote Iriawan, quoted from his Instagram account, Friday, January 20.

Iriawan also said that after the time the Indonesian oath was determined, it was only a matter of waiting for the presence of Shayne Pattynama from the Netherlands. Along with the oath process, later the 24-year-old player will also immediately make an Identity Card (KTP).

"Currently, Shayne's arrival is being scheduled by Bung Hamdan and PSSI so that the timing is right between attendance time and the schedule imposed by the DKI Jakarta Kemenkumham Regional Office as well as making Identity Cards (KTP)," he added.

Iriawan then did not forget to thank other parties who helped in the naturalization process of the player. Special remarks were given to President Joko Widodo who had signed Shayne's naturalization Presidential Decree.

"Thank you profusely to Mr. President Jokowi for signing Keppres naturalization Shayne," said Iriawan.

"Also to four ministries, namely Kemenpora, Kemenkumham, Kemensetneg, and the Ministry of Home Affairs as well as other related parties who have overseen Shayne's struggle to realize her dream of defending the Indonesian national team," he continued.

Shayne Pattynama's previous naturalization application has been approved at the DPR RI Plenary Meeting in Jakarta on November 17, 2022. Then in early January 2023 President Jokowi signed the Presidential Decree on the application for the naturalization of Shayne Pattynama.

"Hopefully the oath-taking process can run smoothly. Of course, the Indonesian football community and I hope to see Shayne in red and white uniforms and fight with other players to bring Indonesia to excel in the international arena. Amen," Iriawan hoped that he would no longer run as chairman of PSSI.
