The bonus didn’t dazzle Alwi’s eyes. This 20 year old young man born in Surakarta has a habit of investing when he receives a bonus. Before winning the 2025 SEA Games bonus, Alwi had already taken home prize money from BWF World Tour championships.
“Yes, maybe I honestly haven’t thought about it myself, because I’ve never held a lot of money. But usually I always invest it in land, houses, etc. So it’s definitely for my future savings,” said Alwi, quoted by Antara.
Alwi’s slick performance didn’t come from the sky and wasn’t a matter of turning the palm of his hand. There is a process that players who graduated from the Saribumi Solo and Exist Jakarta clubs have to go through.
“I have made many sacrifices and I know that what I have sacrificed will definitely be answered at the right time. Thank God, this SEA Games is the right time for me to prove everything,” said Alwi.
Throughout the SEA Games, in both team and individual events, the world number 17 badminton player beat a number of rivals in Southeast Asia such as Leong Jun Hao, Justin Hoh, Loh Kean Yew, and compatriot Moh Zaki Ubaidillah.
