Erick Thohir Invites the Public to Support Indonesian Athletes at the 2026 Asian Games
Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) and Indonesian sports figure, Erick Thohir, has delivered an important message to all Indonesian citizens. He is inviting the public to unite in providing full support to the Indonesian contingent that will compete in the 2026 Asian Games.
The 20th edition of the Asian Games is scheduled to take place in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. This prestigious Asian-level sporting event serves as a crucial moment for national athletes to showcase their best abilities on the international stage.
Support from the public is considered vital to ignite the spirit of the athletes currently undergoing their preparation period. Erick Thohir hopes that prayers and moral support from the homeland can serve as additional motivation for all members of the contingent to achieve maximum success.
Currently, preparations are continuously being carried out by various sports branches to ensure the athletes are in prime condition. The government and relevant parties are committed to facilitating the needs of the athletes so they can focus on pursuing medal targets in Japan later.
Indonesia's participation in the 2026 Asian Games is expected not only to bring home medals but also to bring honor to the nation in the eyes of the world. The public is encouraged to continue monitoring the progress of the national team's preparations leading up to the opening of the sporting event.
