JAKARTA - Indonesian national team player, Sandy Walsh for the first time participated in using his voting rights in the 2024 General Election (Pemilu). The moment turned out to make Walsh so enthusiastic.

With the status of a naturalized player, Walsh has only received his status as an Indonesian citizen in November 2022. With his current status as an Indonesian citizen (WNI), Walsh has the right to vote to be given in the 2024 election.

On his first occasion, Walsh used his voting rights at the Indonesian Embassy in Brussels, Belgium on Saturday, February 10. Living abroad, the opportunity to nominate Walsh did come earlier than the Indonesian people who were just scheduled for Wednesday, February 14.

Through his social media, Walsh showed his first moment of voting. The 28-year-old player enthusiastically shared the moments in which he would give his voting rights.

"Hey friends, I'm at the Indonesian Embassy in Brussels, I want to vote," Sandy Walsh said in his upload quoted on Sunday, February 11.

Appearing with a gray coat, Walsh who is at the Indonesian Embassy in Brussels, seems to join and mingle with other Indonesians in Belgium who will also vote.

Brussels is the location for Walsh to vote for the first time, because that location is currently the domicile of Walsh. Because the player who plays the defender is currently defending the Belgian club, KV Mechelen.

Not alone, Walsh also chose the Indonesian Embassy in Brussels along with other Indonesian national team players, Marselino Ferdinand, who is both domiciled in Belgium for defending KMSK club Deinze.

Sandy Walsh also documented his activities and promised to upload videos through his personal YouTube channel to share his first experience of voting.

Although the status of a naturalized player is fairly new, this is not the first time Sandy Walsh has participated in the activities of the Indonesian diaspora community in Brussels. Since getting an Indonesian passport last November 2022, Sandy Walsh has never been absent from the activities of the Indonesian Embassy in Brussels.

For example, when he joined the celebration of the Republic of Indonesia's Independence Day in August 2023, he wore a batik shirt and participated in eating crackers and participated in a cultural event held by the Indonesian Embassy in Brussels.
