JAKARTA: Sarce Aronggaer, who contributed three gold medals
for the Indonesian team at the 2003 Southeast Asian Games, will
be heading to the Athens Olympics after the Indonesian Rowing
Association (Podsi) was awarded a wildcard by its international
counterpart, the ICF.

Podsi general secretary Budiman told The Jakarta Post on
Monday that he received an email from the International Canoeing
Federation saying that Indonesia had been awarded the wildcard.

Sarce will compete in the 500-meter singles kayak. Her
inclusion increases the number of Indonesian athletes traveling
to the Olympics to 39, with 14 sports being represented in all.
