JAKARTA - The All-Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) recently made a lot of national football lovers. The national football parent said that the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) has not fulfilled FIFA's international football master standard.
However, the statement was then corrected by saying that Anies Baswedan's pride stadium was already FIFA standard.
PSSI Secretary General Yunus Nusi said the match venue was very magnificent, such as the property of many European clubs. However, currently there are still shortcomings that must be completed.
"Everything is FIFA standard. However, what we highlight are stadium perimeter facilities and infrastructure that have not been completed 100 percent," said Yunus Nusi as quoted by the federation website.
PSSI was highlighted in the last few days for changing the location of the FIFA matchday for the Indonesian national team versus Curacao. They initially included JIS for the second match of the Indonesian national team.
However, PSSI then crossed out JIS on the grounds that the stadium was not 100 percent ready for the match against Curacao on 27 September or three days after the first match at the Bandung Stadium in the Sea of Fire (GBLA).
JIS's deletion then provoked polemics because PSSI is said to have a political agenda behind the decision. In fact, he said, Yunus what they put forward for the sake of improving JIS in the future.
"So netizens, football players, or anyone who is happy with football, don't get the wrong idea or accuse PSSI of not being. This PSSI criticism is for the common good," said Yunus.
Based on the results of the PSSI Infrastructure Safety and Security team inspection, JIS is considered not to have met the feasibility of 100 percent infrastructure. The infrastructure in question is the drop-off area of the team and the circulation of activities related to matches in the outer perimeter that piled up in the north west.
In addition, the eastern concourse is not yet usable, the tidal perimeter needs a review, the perimeter fence under the western concourse is not solid, and supporting infrastructure facilities: parking bags, public transportation, and access roads to the stadium, are not up to standard.
