SOUNDBITE 1 (English): RAJA SAPTA OKTOHARI, Chairman of NOC Indonesia
"Of course, we are so excited. I mean, I've never been to Hangzhou before. And we still remember when we passed the flag from Indonesia to Hangzhou during the Asian Games and Asian Para Games 2018. I cannot wait to see our athletes and officials together, showing the highest performance of all athletes from the whole of Asia. We will send approximately 415 athletes, with officials, of course, so around 600 plus. We will participate in 31 sports covering 42 disciplines. Of course, my goal is to get more golds as many as possible. Of course, we are looking for opportunities to cooperate with each other because we can take mutual advantage of this cooperation since we understand that China is one of the strongest countries in the world (in sports). So we can learn so much from China. We want to show more to the Indonesians the proper way of building infrastructure for sports, and I believe China has a very good example for all of that.  So hopefully, after the Asian Games, after back from the Asian Games in Hangzhou, we can have more proper infrastructure for sports. We are looking forward to a great Games that will be hosted by Hangzhou."
