Previously, Hokky had criticized FIFA's decision to revoke Indonesia's status as the host of the 2023 U-20 World Cup. The decision was taken by FIFA with the consideration of the emergence of a wave of rejection against the Israeli national team.
Among the rejections that emerged, the most vocal votes came from the Governor of Bali I Wayan Koster and also Ganjar Pranowo as Governor of Central Java.
The two figures then became targets of the frustration and disappointment of the Indonesian people, including Hokky Caraka.
Although he was vocal in voicing disappointment, not long ago Hokky later apologized publicly for his comments on social media.
