The Brazilian national team praised Indonesia for its readiness as the host of the 2023 U-17 World Cup. Brazil's national team coach, Phelipe Leal, was impressed by the grandeur of Jakarta International Stadium (JIS). The 36-year-old tactician expressed that Indonesia is very serious about hosting the 2023 U-17 World Cup. Leal even shook his head in disbelief when he saw the magnificence of JIS and its turf.

 

Behind all of this, there is a great architect and a substantial construction cost to build the perfect JIS Stadium. Tiyok Prasetyoadi is the architect who designed JIS Stadium. In the design process for JIS, many people commented and criticized it as it was considered not in line with the standards of the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA).

 

The construction cost of JIS, amounting to IDR 4.5 trillion, is known to have used about 80% of funds from a loan provided by the central government. The loan was obtained from PT Sarana Multi Infrastruktur (SMI), which is part of the National Economic Recovery Program (PEN) from the central government.

 

In anticipation of the 2023 U-17 World Cup, there are frequent turf replacements at the stadium. This replacement process involves several stages, starting with manually rolling up the turf to maintain the health of the grass roots. The removed turf is then taken to the nursery for the turf maintenance process.

 

I Gede Adi Adnyana, the Director of Engineering and Business Development at PT Jakarta Propertindo (Jakpro), revealed that the renovation of JIS is complete. According to Adi, the stadium located in Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta, is now ready to be used as a venue for the 2023 U-17 World Cup. The stadium, with an area of 221,000 square meters and a seating capacity of 82,000, has received praise from the public.
