VIVA – The Indonesian Minister of Youth and Sports (Menpora), Zainudin Amali, emphasized that the task of the WADA Sanctions Acceleration Settlement Task Force led by Raja Sapta Oktohari had not yet been completed. This is because WADA is still monitoring the progress of IADO for the next three months.
Indonesia was declared free from WADA sanctions in early February. The good news was conveyed by WADA Director General Olivier Niggli via email on Wednesday, February 2, 2022, Montreal time or Thursday WIB.
The letter states that IADO has been removed from the list of non-compliant (non-compliant) to the WADA Code. This decision is determined by a vote by the WADA Executive Committee.
