SEAToday.com, Jakarta - Menteri Pemuda dan Olahraga Dito Ariotedjo menargetkan cabang olahraga seluncur es atau ice skating Indonesia menjadi salah satu cabang andalan yang lolos untuk berkompetisi pada ajang Winter Olympic mendatang.

"Kami menargetkan ice skating harus menjadi cabang olahraga andalan Indonesia agar lolos ke Winter Olympic," tulis Dito melalui akun instagram @ditoariotedjo.

Hal tersebut ia ungkapkan setelah memantau langsung pelaksanaan ajang Asia Open Short Speed Skating Jakarta yang digelar Pengurus Pusat Federasi Ice Skating Indonesia (PP FISI) di AEON Mall Jakarta Garden City, Jakarta Timur, Jumat (23/8).

Ajang ini sendiri diikuti oleh 11 negara lainnya yaitu Malaysia, Mongolia, Jepang, Vietnam, Australia, Thailand, Filipina, China Taipei, Singapura, Hong Kong, dan India.

Dito pun memberikan apresiasinya atas penyelenggaraan ajang tersebut sebagai bagian dari pembinaan dan menambah jam terbang atlet Indonesia ketika berkompetisi menghadapi atlet mancanegara.

Ia berharap PP FISI terus menggelar ajang-ajang yang bisa mengembangkan cabang short speed ice skating Indonesia dan bisa bersaing di kancah internasional.

Sebelumnya, Ketua Umum PP FISI Suzan Herawati mengatakan, pihaknya sangat bersyukur karena cabang ice skating Indonesia untuk pertama kalinya akan dipertandingkan sebagai laga ekshibisi dalam ajang PON Aceh-Sumut 2024 pada September mendatang.

Setelah PON Aceh-Sumut, pihaknya mulai mempersiapkan atlet untuk menghadapi kejuaraan mancanegara seperti Asian Winter Games 2025 di Harbin, Cina dan SEA Games Thailand 2025.
