Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo regretted the chaos between PSIS Semarang supporters and the police during the PSIS vs Persis Solo match at the Jatidiri Stadium in Semarang, Friday, February 17. Ganjar asked that this incident be an evaluation material and should not be repeated.
"Alhamdulillah, until this afternoon it was under control. There were no casualties and no damage and so on. I was sent a video of a dialogue between the police and supporters and this is what is important to say. We will definitely evaluate everything and I am still waiting for a report from the police," said Ganjar.
Ganjar said that the PSIS Semarang vs Persis Solo match was indeed held without spectators. The security forces, in this case, the Semarang Polrestabes and the organizing committee have actually issued a letter regarding this matter. However, when the match was held, there were still supporters who came to the stadium.
"Indeed I heard that they had already bought a ticket. But I also received information that the management and the committee would replace and return it. Indeed, this requires speed so that these supporters can calm down," he explained.
Ganjar Pranowo understands the emotional atmosphere of the fans. When his favorite team plays and they can't watch live, there must be disappointment.
"I actually want to watch, because the match must be interesting. But because there are provisions issued by the police, we have followed them. Maybe this is part of the anticipation that we must understand together," he explained.
Ganjar further asked for this incident to be an evaluation. He said it was important for supporters to meet to make code of conduct or guidelines on how to provide good and attractive support.
"Let's talk coordinators, let's have coffee. We make a more interesting atmosphere to evaluate so that we can watch all our team matches. We are happy together and see achievements. We have learned a lot from previous events," said Ganjar Pranowo.
