JAKARTA - PSSI Executive Committee (Exco) member Arya Sinulingga, reported the development of naturalization of Ragnar Oratmangoen and Thom Haye. He said the process was being accelerated and was still waiting for the hammer from the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR).

As is known, Ragnar Oratmangoen is a Fortuna Sittard and Thom Haye player currently defending SC Heerenveen.

The two players are currently undergoing naturalization and are projected to be able to defend the Indonesian national team in the second round of the 2026 Asian Zone World Cup Qualifiers.

According to Arya, the process is still waiting for the DPR's decision because currently the DPR has entered a recess, which is outside the trial period.

"Ragnar and Thom Haye have been resolved in the government. We want to advance to the DPR," said Arya Sinulingga in his statement quoted on Wednesday, February 7, 2024.

The stagnant process must be accepted and carried out according to schedule. The reason is, PSSI also cannot force the DPR during a recess to hold a trial.

"We don't blame anyone because that's the schedule," he said.

Arya said that in March 2024, it is possible that the process of Ragnar and Thom Haye will continue. You see, during that period the DPR recess period was over.

"Today's DPR recess (Tuesday, February 6, 2024) until March 7, 2024," he said.
