Kemenpora memastikan akan memberikan bonus besar kepada para atlet pemenang medali di SEA Games 2023 yang digelar di Cambodia mulai 5-17 Mei. Dito Ariotedjo, Menpora, menyampaikan bahwa secara keseluruhan bonus SEA Games kali ini masih sama dengan bonus edisi sebelumnya di SEA Games Vietnam 2021.
"As far as I know, the rules (of the SEA Games bonus) have not changed from the last one," said Menpora Dito.
The Ministry of Youth and Sports said the amount of bonus given depends on the government's decision, adjusting the calculation of the Ministry of Finance. How much is the bonus for Indonesian athletes who won the SEA Games medal this year?
