Typically, the overall champion Games Southeast Asian Nations is indeed swept at least 25 percent of the total gold medals. While the overall winner won a record 43 percent.
Hue-hue sumringah starting to look at the faces of the officials of Gold Indonesia Programme Implementation Unit (Satlak Prima), Chairman of Olympic Committee of Indonesia / Indonesian National Sports Committee and Minister of Youth and Sports. In fact, they had hit a high level of tension ahead of the implementation of the 26 th SEA Games is a result of dogged by various problems.
"Alhamdulillah, Insya Allah, we can win the general. Because once we are targeting 136 gold medals and now it is over the target. We're heading toward the overall championship," said Chairman of the KONI / KOI, Rita Subowo.
Gold as a determinant of Indonesia overall champion came from various branches. Including several branches which exceeded the target as Shoe Wheel is doing mop-gold, Athletics, Karate, Climbing Wall, Paddle, Wushu and Badminton.
"It's thanks to the cooperation of all parties. From the readiness of our athletes are physically or mentally. Finally, they can achieve all this with all the limitations that exist," added the woman was friendly smile.
"From the beginning we had imagined it (the medal). Since we've programmed some plans together Prima (Indonesia Gold Program). At least we got 136 medals, it's about 27 percent of the 545 gold medals up for grabs," said Rita again.
"The joy for me because many of our athletes are still very young. Now we will focus on their welfare."
Andi Mallarangeng Menpora no less optimistic. Indonesia calls Menpora chance to win the general has reached 99 percent.
"So it's no longer overtaken for the overall winner. But, athletes should focus on fighting for the gold as much as possible," Andi said when contacted VIVAnews, Sunday, November 20, 2011.
According to him, with this gold medal, Indonesia has become the overall champion safe. Thailand provided that Indonesia could poke barely won one gold in the remaining games that exist.
"If we do not get anything, Thailand win. But, the Indonesia did not get anything? So for now count-count 99 percent were safely into the overall champion. But there is still 1 percent for it and should not be arrogant," he added.
Furthermore, estimates Menpora Indonesia will be able to reach 170 gold medals at the SEA Games XXVI. The target is actually not strange because of reports each carrier sport before seag 2011 was held, the maximum target could reach 175 gold.
"Of all the branches are fairly evenly distributed, of gold left over we could get 25 gold. Then we could get 160-170 gold medal at the SEA Games this time," he said.
Waiting 14 Years
Indonesia had to wait for 14 years to prevail again. Contingent of Red and White never became king in Southeast Asia in the last six SEA Games. The last time, Indonesia triumphed in the ASEAN region to host the SEA Games 1997.
The signs of the emergence of rivals for the contingent of Red and White is already visible after Thailand became the overall champion as host seag 1995 in Chiang Mai.
Indonesia re-took the time to host seag 1997 in Jakarta. But, back to the King of Thailand in ASEAN in 1999 in Brunei Darussalam.
Rivalry of Indonesia and Thailand is getting hot. The two countries are inter-claim as a force in Southeast Asia's biggest sport. Indonesia and Thailand are also clashing winning the medal if the number appearing at the Asian Games and Olympics.
After 1999, the SEA Games champion as a trophy given to the host. Because the host is surprisingly capable of becoming the overall champion in 2001, namely Malaysia, Vietnam 2003, the Philippines Thailand 2005 and again 2007.
Malaysia, Vietnam and the Philippines is not a major force in the ASEAN region. However, the ability of the general won the Vietnam SEA Games in 2003 became a milestone revival of uncle Ho's sport. Vietnam is now able to become a new force rivals for Indonesia and Thailand.
This is evidenced in seag 2009 Vietnam Laos. They were in position 2 under Thailand are back to being the overall champion. While Indonesia only been in position 3 gold medalist ever.
Now, Indonesia again became King in the ASEAN region. The euphoria may hit the country. But, in fact more severe challenges ahead. Like the phrase, "maintain more difficult than win."
Moreover, Indonesia triumphed in the branches instead of the alias that competed at the Olympic level of Asia (Asian Games) and worldwide (Olympics).
Commander Satlak Prima, Tono Suratman before the SEA Games was held to admit that Indonesia gold mine comes from branches of non-Olympic. Luckily, the prediction was slightly covered with athletic success, though to compete in the Asia and the world was very heavy.
"After this we will start with a new program. The new prediction for the second two years by giving equal opportunities, both branch and non-olympic sports olympic sports. Indeed ongoing coaching, about priorities still exist, which leads to achievement , where the coaching toward achievement, "said Tono to VIVAnews.
"We hope the Government will still impact the allocation of training funds, as well as to other points. Included for foreign coaches who do have more certificates. This means that the coach certificate champion athlete has ever made. Because it is for the SEA Games, the countries that became only competitor that's it, unlike the Asian Games or Olympics. "
Coaching is very serious in the branches of Olympic is very necessary. This is so that Indonesia also did not get the bandwagon 'trophy' which is only able to become the overall champion at the time the host.
"So after this fixed exercises with long-term program. What we will now evaluate the leading branches of the Olympics. It became a priority," said Tono.
Football Gold closes
As always, accomplishments as a public champion won the 2011 SEA Games in Indonesia is less complete when not covered with gold medal football. Although only one gold medal but football is very high prestige value. Moreover, Indonesia has 20 years of not winning the SEA Games football.
"We want to become the overall champion and won the gold medal for football," said Andi Mallarangeng Menpora, 20 November 2011.
According to him, Indonesia victories in Games event in Southeast Asia is like a sweet cake. However, victory in football as a branch of cherry pie to sweeten it.
Andi said, if it could sustain such a game against Vietnam, then Indonesia could conquer the Malaysian national team in the final at Bung Karno Main Stadium, Senayan, Jakarta, on Monday evening, 21 November 2011.
Menpora also commanded the people to continue supporting the national team with enthusiasm and orderly. He also appealed to the people who want to support directly at the Bung Karno Stadium in order to be aware of fake tickets.
