JAKARTA The Indonesian Football Transformation Task Force (Satgas) finally held its inaugural meeting, Friday, October 21, or eight days after the PSSI was formed in a meeting with FIFA on October 13.

This team was formed following President Joko Widodo's instructions. In it are PSSI and the Indonesian government, namely the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing, and the National Police.

"PSSI is working with the government to improve the governance of Indonesian football and ensure that the tragedy in Kanjuruhan does not happen again," said Iriawan, as reported by PSSI's official website.

The formation of the Task Force is carried out to find the right formulation of football governance in Indonesia, synchronizing the role and responsibility of each football stakeholder starting from PSSI, the government and the police, as well as participating clubs and spectators.

The task of the Task Force is to improve infrastructure management, security and rescue, crowd management, audience management, and football education.

In carrying out their duties, this task force has the support of FIFA and AFC. The two international football parents will help PSSI deal with situations like this.

FIFA and AFC will play a role to help in the fields of safety, security, stadium infrastructure and supporting campaigns.

"We are confident that through this joint effort, we will produce a joint commitment that FIFA, AFC, PSSI and the government will ensure that Indonesia is a comfortable place for football. The crisis center will soon be established for the task force to work together," said Iriawan.
