C. Java archers join SEAG training

SEMARANG (JP): Two Central Java archers, Permadi Sandra W and
Tri Mudo Joko, have been called to join the selection process for
the 2001 Kuala Lumpur Southeast Asian (SEA) Games. The selection
will take place in Jakarta next January.

"I hope both archers make the national team. The competition,
however, will be tough among the archers being selected,"
chairman of Central Java chapter of the Indonesian Archery
Association (Perpani)," Didiek Soekardi said on Thursday.

"Tough competition will come from archers of Jakarta, East
Java, and West Java."

Didiek admitted that archers from Central Java had less
experience in International Archery Federation (FITA) events and
were more experienced in traditional events.

"But both Permadi and Tri have been groomed in the national
training center before, so they have sufficient skills." (har)
