The tragedy has raised concerns about the safety of sporting events in Indonesia and the absence of adequate preventative measures.

The Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) has been criticized for its handling of the issue, with the absence of accountability and justice for the victims outraging their relatives and the nation. 

FIFA has also expressed worry over the situation and urged the PSSI to take immediate measures. The tragedy highlights the importance of safety procedures in sporting events and the need for accountability and justice in the event of calamities. 

The families of the victims continue to demand answers and justice for their loved ones, as well as swift action from the government to prevent future disasters.
