The Indonesian contingent lights up
SEA Games 2025
.Finishing in second place in the medal standings is proof that the Red and White team is able to compete at the top of the Southeast Asian football festival.
As of the last day of the 2025 SEA Games, Saturday (20/12), Indonesia had won 91 gold, 111 silver and 131 bronze.The title won by the Indonesian National Futsal Team was the final gold medal for the Indonesian contingent after beating hosts Thailand 6-1 in the final.
With the 2025 SEA Games series at the end of the event, Indonesia is firmly in second place in the medal standings.This achievement also exceeds the achievements at the 2023 SEA Games with 87 gold, 80 silver and 109 bronze while finishing in third place.

This is also the most gold since Indonesia hosted the 2011 SEA Games. At that time, the team with the Garuda logo collected 182 gold, 151 silver and 143 bronze.
At a glance the more medal nicks looked shiny.But if you look more closely, there are important notes accompanying it.
The number of Indonesian athletes going to the 2025 SEA Games (1,021) is much higher than the 2023 SEA Games (599).With 91 gold medals won in this edition and 87 in the previous volume, the increase in the number of athletes does not necessarily mean that the gold medal tally has increased significantly either.
The ‘X’ factor that places Indonesia in second place in the 2025 SEA Games medal standings is Vietnam’s declining performance.After becoming the overall champion at the 2023 SEA Games with 136 gold from 702 athletes, now they are struggling with 80 gold from 841 athletes.
However, the increasing number of gold medals at the SEA Games presented by Indonesia is worth celebrating regardless of the sport.Moreover, the presence of new sports and numbers made history by winning the first gold medal.
For example, the men’s futsal team finally broke its egg and won first gold.Apart from that there are equestrian, ice hockey, kickboxing and women’s 3×3 basketball.Athletes, coaches and staff who make the nation proud are sports heroes.
The birth of the sport and new gold-winning numbers is a sign that Indonesian sport is not stuck in the same discourse.It should be possible to speak on a wider spectrum.
Next year there will be the 2026 Asian Games in Japan.Two years later it will be the turn of the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, United States.These stages must be carefully prepared by the Red and White Team.

worthy of proper celebration.After that, Indonesia needs to prepare for a bigger stage, the 2028 Olympics.
The Olympics are the ultimate goal of competitive sport.This is the reason why the SEA Games are dominant in competing in sports that will also take place in the Olympics.
There are 23 medal-producing sports at the 2025 SEA Games for Indonesia which also happen to be contested at the 2028 Olympics. Talking about gold, the biggest contributor is athletics with nine pieces.
Then the sports that contributed more than two gold medals to the 2025 SEA Games were shooting, archery, rock climbing, judo, cycling, weightlifting, swimming, badminton, rowing and tennis.Those mentioned are both competing in the 2028 Olympics.
Regarding lunge, the favorite sport for gold earners at the Olympics is badminton.But at the 2024 Olympics gold’s scope extends to weightlifting and rock climbing.
This factor is what makes the Ministry of Youth and Sports need to broaden its perspective on sports that were previously not subscribed to gold, as the highest medal projections on the most prestigious stages as well.Weightlifting and rock climbing have proven themselves to be an ‘oasis’ during badminton’s gold drought at the 2024 Olympics.

Also pay attention to sports that are slowly showing significant improvement, such as tennis which won three gold medals at the 2025 SEA Games. Then skateboarding which won the highest medal also needs to be in the spotlight.
It is possible that athletes who excel on the Southeast Asian stage can climb a higher path at the Asian level, then onto the world stage.Or it could be that those who didn’t excel at the SEA Games actually excel at next year’s Asian Games.This could be a provision for the 2028 Olympics.
Holistic development of athletes is the Ministry of Youth and Sports’ obligation in policy matters.The government needs to ensure to every sports administrator that the athlete’s journey is on the path to the 2028 Olympics.
But before that, it seems that the 2026 Asian Games will be a priority.Being able to talk a lot at continental level, then talk about punching the world.
