JAKARTA - J99 Corp fulfilled their promise by awarding medal-winning athletes at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

J99 Corp's support for the Indonesian team had actually been given before the Red and White contingent competed in the Tokyo Olympics. They provide the best buses for the athletes on departure and arrival.

However, Gilang Widya Permana and Sandi Purnamasari as owners of J99 also promised bonuses to Tokyo Olympic medalists. And now they are making it happen.

The chairman of the Indonesian Olympic Committee (NOC Indonesia) Raja Sapta Oktohari appreciated J99's commitment. During the award ceremony for the athletes who won the Tokyo Olympics medals at the J99 Corp Building, Jakarta, Sunday, August 22, he hoped that more entrepreneurs in the country would pay attention to sports achievements.

Thus, the increase in the achievement of Merah Putih can be achieved quickly.

"We hope that there will be many entrepreneurs such as Gilang Widya Permana and Sandi Purnamasari in Indonesia because before the medal-winning athletes gained popularity, J99 Corp had provided support by providing bonuses and supporting the Indonesian team", said Okto, Raja Sapta's best friend in an official statement received by VOI, Monday.

The six medal-winning athletes received cash and carry prizes, with details of the women's doubles gold winner Greysia Polii/Apriyani Rahayu getting IDR 500 million each, silver winner Eko Yuli Irawan receiving IDR 250 million.

Meanwhile, the three bronze medalists, namely Anthony Sinisuka Ginting, Windy Cantika Aisyah, and Rahmat Erwin Abdullah each received IDR 100 million.

All medal winners were also appointed as ambassadors for MS Glow Beauty and MS Glow Men beauty products.

"J99 Corp is not only concerned with sports in Indonesia but also makes athletes glow", said Okto. "In the future, NOC Indonesia will certainly provide support and open itself to continue working with J99 Corp".

Meanwhile, Greysia is grateful for the appreciation given by J99 Corp. She believes this appreciation can trigger enthusiasm for other athletes to be able to excel in the international arena.

“We as athletes want to give the best for Indonesia. Hopefully, this will be a good trigger for athletes everywhere", said Greysia.
