Potential of National Football Not Maximized
The potential of national football had not yet been maximized due to various problems that had not been fully resolved, such as commotion between fans and the “football mafia”, which was an open secret.
JAKARTA, KOMPAS — The Football Association of Indonesia (PSSI) has been considered incapable thus far of managing national football, which has enormous potential. If it is managed properly, football has the opportunity to bring massive economic and social benefits to the nation.
In its 2022 report, Nielsen stated that 69 percent of the Indonesian population was interested in soccer. This means that around 189 million Indonesians are attracted to or interested in football. Inevitably, Indonesia is known as a "football crazy" country.
