Indonesia reveals plan to host 2032 Olympics after hosting Asian Games successfully in Jakarta and Palembang. Indonesian President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo confirmed that country would bid to get hosting rights for Olympic Games 2032.
“With the experience we have in organizing the 18th Asian Games, we are sure Indonesia can also host a bigger event and 2032 Olympics are bigger one,” President Widodo said.
After meeting with the presidents of IOC and AOC, Indonesia’s Jokowi stated publicly that country hosted Asian Games successfully and ready for hosting such kind of bigger events. And it would have been great if we could manage to get 2032 Olympic Games hosting rights.
A sport science lecturer from one of the top Indonesian universities Institute of Technology Bandung, Tommy Apriantono told AFP that Olympics are much bigger and different than Asiads and experience of hosting Asian Games, would definitely help the nation to go for Olympic Games.
“We have successfully hosted the Asian Games despite all the shortcomings. I think Indonesia is good enough, it’s worth (bidding)… but we have to really prepare for it. Now we have experience with the Asian Games… (but) the Olympics is different, there are more participants and the pressure is bigger,” Tommy said as saying by AFP.
International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach welcomed Indonesia’s bid for hosting 2032 Olympics after their brilliant run of Asian Games 2018.
