JAKARTA - The captain of Bekasi City FC, Hamka Hamzah, firmly rejects the decision to stop the 2022/2023 League 2 competition. According to him, this situation will trigger friction between players and clubs.

This was revealed by Hamka Hamzah because so far the club still has to meet the salaries of the players when the League 2 competition began to falter. With the suspension of the competition, there will be demands from players to clubs.

"All (players are still) being paid. So, that will become a problem later. When (the competition) is stopped, it ends up being the players and the clubs who are noisy," said Hamka Hamza when met after an audience with the Menpora at the Kemenpora Office on Monday, January 16 afternoon WIB.

"For example (League 2) really doesn't work, in the end, there will be clashes between players and clubs, even though it's not the players and clubs who want to stop," he continued.

Based on this idea, Hamka then stepped down to represent his club on the agenda for this audience. Even though PSSI and PT. The New Indonesia League (LIB) as the operator has decided to stop the competition, Hamka is still trying to get Liga 2 back on track.

"This is trying again, as the Menpora said (we want to) voice that League 2 must continue. Even though the decision has been finalized, hopefully, it can still be changed because there are several clubs that are not involved," he explained.

PSSI some time ago decided to stop the implementation of League 2 this season. This decision was taken at an executive committee meeting (exco) which was held at the PSSI office, GBK Arena, Jakarta, on Thursday, January 12.

Regarding the results of this decision, Secretary General of PSSI Yunus Nusi explained that the choice to stop the Liga 2 competition was based on various factors. One of them is a request from the club.

The move by a number of League 2 clubs to establish an audience was then welcomed by the Menpora, Zainudin Amali. He said he would find a solution through communication with the federation and find the best way out to overcome this problem.

"After I heard that (the results of the hearing) then I said that I would find a way out. I will communicate with PSSI, with the exco, then with related parties, who knows (League 2) can still run," said the Menpora.
