JAKARTA Indonesia will pursue a historic record of getting more than two gold medals for the first time on the Olympic stage. The target was carried out at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
This spirit began to be nurtured through a symbolic procession in the form of laying three Olympic gold medals at the opening of the NOC Indonesia Annual Member Meeting at the Fairmont Hotel, Senayan, Jakarta, on Tuesday, April 22, 2025.
Chairman of NOC Indonesia, Raja Sapta Oktohari, explained that the three original medals belonged to Greysia Polii (badminton), Veddriq Leonardo (thiking cliffs), and Rizki Juniasnsyah (weightlifting).
"This indicates that hopefully it will be our goal that will be realized later at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics that Indonesia can get more than two golds," Okto told the media crew after the opening ceremony.

The three medals placed in the ceremonial opening of the annual meeting symbolize Friendship, Excellence, and Respect. The NOC Indonesia 2025 meeting itself carries the spirit of Together for Excellence.
Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports (Wamenpora), Taufik Hidayat, said that the NOC Indonesia Member Meeting was a strategic momentum to increase synergy from various parties.
"The Ministry of Youth and Sports continues to encourage solid cooperation with all stakeholders. We believe that togetherness and the spirit of mutual cooperation in Indonesia's sports achievements will continue to increase," he said.
As a concrete implementation of the spirit of Together for Excellence, NOC Indonesia also signed a strategic partnership with TikTok Indonesia and Aice Indonesia in the series of opening of the Member Meeting.
This collaboration is to emphasize the cross-sectoral role in supporting the performance of the Indonesian Team on the international stage, especially the Olympics which are the big targets.
"This platform allows the public to follow the journey of athletes from training to competing, as well as provide direct moral support," said Richard Sam Bera, President Director of the Indonesian Team.
This year, Indonesia will face three international multi-branch events, namely the Asian Youth Games in Manama, Bahrain, October 22, 2025, Islamic Solidarity Games in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, 7 21 November 2025, and SEA Games Thailand, 7 December 19, 2025.
After that, Indonesia's next preparation is the 2026 Asian Games. These events are an opportunity to forge Indonesia's preparations for Los Angeles.
