ABSTRACT

This section discusses the Sports Development Policy in Indonesia during the reform order era (1998–present). Sports development practices are discussed, along with the democratic political system in which they are created. At the beginning of the Reformation era, sports development received less attention. However, in 2005, the Law of the National Sports System was successfully enacted. In this Sport Law, the scope of sports is divided into educational sports, recreational sports and competitive sports. The Sports Development Policy in Indonesia has always intersected and succeeded in building a self-image related to the economy, society, politics and culture, reaching its peak when Indonesia was entrusted to host the XIV Asian Games 2018 in Jakarta Palembang. The practice of sports development in Indonesia during the Reformation Order era operated in the framework of development of sport. Within certain limits, the framework of development through sport is also carried out, especially when hosting multi-events such as the 2011 SEA Games, the 2015 Islamic Solidarity Games and the 2018 Asian Games.
