JAKARTA - The General Chairman of the Indonesian Weightlifting Association (PABSI), Rosan Roslani, ensured that the federation would give additional bonuses to athletes and coaches after the latest achievements at the 2025 SEA Games which recorded a world record.
Rosan emphasized that the award was given after the achievement was achieved, not promised at the beginning.
"Alhamdulillah, this is a very proud achievement. I am present in my capacity as the Chairman of PABSI," said Rosan to reporters at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, Thursday, January 8, 2026.
He said the pattern of awards applied was consistent. In the previous Olympics (2024), PABSI provided a house and long-term insurance to gold medalists. A similar scheme will be reconsidered as a form of attention to athletes and coaches.
"This time the form is likely to be cash, but in a deposit. We will discuss this weekend. Of course, thank God," said Rosan about the bonus value.
The Minister of Investment/Head of BKPM who is also the CEO of BPI Danantara also emphasized the direction of the target achievement in the future.
Since his management, Indonesian weightlifters have won gold at the Asian Games, medals at the Olympics, and world champions. These achievements have become the foundation for higher targets.
"At the Asian Games (2022), we announced gold and achieved it. For the 2028 Olympics, our target is also a gold medal," he said.
With the consistency of coaching and awards based on achievements, Rosan is optimistic that Indonesian weightlifters will maintain momentum and compete at the highest level in the world.
