JAKARTA - The Dutch Royal Football Association (KNVB) welcomes the return of the Dutch national team to the World Cup with enthusiasm. For this reason, KNVB again held the Orangje Festival in Indonesia.

The Dutch national team again participated in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after missing the 2018 edition in Russia. The decision to hold this festival was made by KNVB itself after seeing the success of the previous edition which was held in Ambon, Maluku in 2021.

"We've seen videos of fans in Indonesia convoying on the road driving a scooter and wearing orange attributes after the Oranje Team won the game," recalled Gijs de Jong as Secretary General of the KNVB during a press conference in Senayan, Jakarta on Thursday, September 1 morning.

In addition, the data also shows that there are more than 12 million Oranje Fans in Indonesia. This is truly extraordinary and has become something we want to embrace," continued Gijs.

The Indonesian Oranje Festival will be held from November 25 in Jakarta, where the date was chosen because it coincided with the second day the Oranje Team appeared in the World Cup against Ecuador.

Not only holding festivals, KNVB also invites nobar (watching together) fans to compete in the GBK Stadium area. There are also other activities such as performances of music, culinary festivals and talk shows as an offering and appreciation for fans.

This function is a gift as well as proof of our seriousness in maintaining good relations with fans in Indonesia. We really want to show our appreciation for their support so far and hope for their support for the Orangje Team in the upcoming World Cup (Qatar)," said Gijs de Jong.
