Suara.com – Get to know Muhammad Sungkar, CEO of the Liga 2 team, Putra Delta Sidoarjo, who is a member of the PSSI Executive Committee (Exco) for the 2023-2027 period.
PSSI Extraordinary Congress (KLB) officially ended yesterday (16/2) and presented a new organizational structure for the 2023-2027 period.
This new composition can be seen from the election of the General Chairperson (Ketum) of the Indonesian Football Association, namely Erick Thohir, who won the vote with 64 votes.
Then, the Deputy Chairperson (Waketum) is now given to new faces, namely Ratu Tisha and Zainuddin Amali who won the votes in the KLB vote.

Not only important positions, changes also occurred in the Executive Committee (Exco), where there were 12 names consisting of old and new faces who were elected.
Of the 12 selected Excos, the one that caught the attention was Muhammad Sungkar. He was elected in the first round by pocketing 56 votes.
The CEO of Putra Delta Sidoarjo was then elected and became the youngest Exco at PSSI, considering he was only 31 years old.
No doubt, the election of Muhammad Sungkar made it a topic of conversation. So, who is the figure of the youngest PSSI Exco? Here’s the profile.

Muhammad Sungkar is one of the elected PSSI Executive Committee (Exco) for the 2023-2027 period who was born on January 11, 1992.
The election of Muhammad Sungkar as a member of the Exco is somewhat surprising. The reason is, he stepped forward as a candidate member of the Exo not because of his own will.
It is known that Muhammad Sungkar has stepped forward as a candidate for Exco members following encouragement from the Deputy CEO of Central Kalimantan Putra, namely Rahmat Hamka.
Who would have thought, from this ‘fad’, he was elected by pocketing 56 votes in the first round, or became the candidate with the most votes.
Currently he is listed as the CEO of Putra Delta Sidoarjo who is competing in League 2 this season, after being the Runner Up in the League 3 event last season.
Because of his experience in League 3, Muhammad Sungkar was determined to make changes in Indonesian football through his position as an Exco member.
One of the changes he made was the addition of castes or strata in the pyramid of national football competitions.
This desire departs from Muhammad Sungkar’s observation that League 3 is crowded with thousands of players in it.
With so many players there, the competition was not running efficiently, so he also wanted to present another competition that could facilitate the players.
