JAKARTA - Raja Sapta Oktohari is again carrying out his duties as General Chair of the Indonesian Olympic Committee (KOI) or NOC Indonesia. There are three challenges he will face to improve Indonesia's sports achievements in the world arena.
The sports budget is the biggest challenge today, said the man who is familiarly called Raja Okto, considering that the number is below 0.01 percent of the state budget. For this reason, Okto said that his party would continue to encourage the budget for sports to increase in line with the achievement growth target.
"That's why we encourage. Earlier we have also conveyed initiatives to the chairman of the DPD, to the Menpora, we convey that our challenge going forward is that of course the increase in achievements cannot be separated from the budget, and we really need support from all parties," said Okto, as reported by Antara, Friday, June 30.
Furthermore, the budget is also inseparable from the Great Design of National Sports (DBON) which according to Okto must be flexible and adapt to the existing dynamics.
"And the DBON program must be flexible and it was agreed by the menpora that nothing was fixed. Don't let anyone stay in their comfort zone because everything has to compete, promotion and relegation are a must to ensure that Indonesia's sports achievements are increasing," he said.
The increase in achievement, he continued, is also in line with KOI's vision for management in 2023-2027, namely 'Sediri on the World Stage', which is expected to cover many talents to participate in the sports sector.
"This is not only about athletes' achievements, but also coaches, referees. There should be many Indonesians who are qualified to become referees in international (events)," said Okto.

In addition, inviting parents to involve their children in coaching athletes, increasing foreign language skills, to involving the private sector is also a challenge in itself.
"We all agree that we will apply to the government for companies that want to support Indonesian sports, provide sponsorship, provide full donations or support for Indonesia's sports achievements, they should be able to get incentives. With this incentive, there will be more companies that are motivated to provide maximum support to Indonesian sports," said Okto.
