However, at the 2023 Asian Games, neither Fajar/Rian nor Leo/Daniel failed to contribute a medal.

If you look at the previous three editions, Indonesian men’s doubles even managed to contribute a gold medal.
At that time, Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan won the gold medal in 2010, Mohammad Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan in 2014, and finally Marcus Fernaldi Gideon/Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo in 2018.
Considered the most responsible, PBSI is also being asked by Indonesian netizens to improve.

Rionny then added that his party would immediately carry out an evaluation.
“On behalf of the Indonesian badminton team, I apologize to the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Indonesian Olympic Committee (NOC Indonesia) and all Indonesian people for this failure. This result is my responsibility as Head of Binpres (Head of Development and Achievement),” said Rionny , quoted from djarumbadminton.com.
“But allow me to convey the evaluation and obstacles faced by the team in more complete detail, later, after I, the coaching team and management, hold a meeting upon arrival in Jakarta,” added Rionny.
