According to him, winning gold in the men's team at the 2026 Asian Games will inspire a new generation of Indonesian athletes. Moreover, the success of the men's badminton team ends Indonesia's 28-year wait for another championship in this sport at the Asian Games.
"This victory, after a 28-year wait, is a source of shared pride and demonstrates the results of the long work of the athletes, coaches, families, and all those who supported them," Puan said.
He assessed that the Garuda Team had demonstrated the strength to maintain trust in one another and give their best for Indonesia until the final match. He also expressed his pride in this achievement.
He is confident that the Indonesian team will achieve many more successes at this prestigious Asian Games. He hopes this first gold medal will pave the way for more gold medals in other sports.
According to him, the Garuda Team's success at the Asian Games carries a broader message for Indonesian children, namely the opportunity to achieve world-class achievements that can grow when talent meets consistent support.
"The presence of young players in the men's team's victory provides strong reasons for optimism about the future of national badminton," he said.
Therefore, he also encouraged the government to maintain this momentum by expanding opportunities for sports and achievement for children in various regions.
"Attention to young talent needs to continue after the championship is over, so that more children can see the path to developing their abilities," he said.
