'Mergers Not Automatically Place Club LPI at Highest Level'

Jakarta - Mergers performed by LPI club clubs PSSI perceived competition contestants will automatically bring the club into the competition the highest level of LPI. But the merger did not necessarily make it happen.
For the upcoming 2011/2012 season, Indonesian football competition will bring new competition. Nowadays both clubs who last season became contestants competition that was held previously PSSI or participate in the LPI, is collecting the requirements to earn the label of professional clubs.


From the specified requirements, there is already owned by the club but have not owned the club ISL LPI, and vice versa. That's why the merger option to be considered from various parties. "It could be just what the club's lack of ISL in the LPI and vice versa. (Then) the merger occurs," said the chairman of the competition PSSI Sihar Sitorus to detiksport on Friday (12/08/2011).
PSSI chairman Djohar Arifin Husin said that the new competition which is planned to roll next October, LPI and ISL clubs will be merged.
So far, the merger received resistance. Who rejected the merger rate that it is too "indulgent" clubs LPI, because with the merger the new club for the rest LPI corn and have yet to prove its quality is like getting a free ticket to perform at the highest level of competition in the country.
However Sihar said that the merger does not necessarily necessarily make the club at the top levels of LPI. "If what I see is to see it from the bigger picture, not merely a club LPI LPI or not, but get into: how to promote football in general - whether it exists or ISL LPI club mergers and chose to play in Super League or Division major, or they go into coaching early age, (all) possible. Maybe this is a statement of Mr. Djohar, "lugasnya.
Sihar also said that the speech Djohar about LPI foundries and ISL is the case because (then) Normalisation Committee had decided LPI PSSI under the auspices of the PSSI.
"So the club LPI no longer a stranger, but one big family. Automatic globally, in outline, the spirit of fusion occurs. If there be involvement of LPI and ISL clubs, there was amalgamation of two entities, bermetaformosfis."
"One of the conditions are legal entities, the two legal entities into one. Who would perform according to the statutes. Because LPI has entered into a large family of PSSI, LPI club berptartisipasi made possible," he finished.
