Such warning should be reminded, because event WADA lifted the suspension to Indonesia on February 2nd, 2022, then it did mean that IADO could be relax. On March 23rd, 2022 there was a letter from WADA to Chairman of IADO. The letter provided the concern raised by WADA on CAR (Corrective Action Report) which shall be completed by IADO properly. Consequently, if IADO failed to fulfil it during the following 3 months, IADO would potentially sanctioned.

Due to the very high concern, H.E. the President of the Republic of Indonesia Mr. Joko Widodo asked the Minister of Youth and Sports to solve the problem as soon as possibly. The Minister then called for the emergency meeting with IADO and NOC on May 9th, 2022 in which the Minister instructed to solve the problem within a week. After working hard, IADO got an information from WADA on May 28th, 2022 that IADO was regarded to comply with the Code.
