Jun, 12 2026

The Bekasi City Government has ensured the readiness of venues and infrastructure for the 2026 West Java Provincial Sports Week (Porprov), which will take place from November 7-20.

As the main host, Bekasi City claims that almost all competition facilities are ready for use.

The Head of the Bekasi City Youth and Sports Agency (Dispora), Arwani, stated that Porprov venue readiness is currently around 98 percent.

The majority of the competition venues are located at the Patriot Candrabhaga Stadium (PCB) in South Bekasi, which will be the center of West Java's largest sporting event.

"The infrastructure, facilities, and venues are 98 percent ready. The Patriot Candrabhaga Stadium complex was built from the start to support various large-scale sporting events," said Arwani.

According to him, Bekasi City will host competitions for approximately 37 sports or 49 sub-sports. Most indoor sports will be centered at the Patriot Candrabhaga Stadium, while other venues are spread across several districts.

The sports that will be contested in the stadium area include volleyball, badminton, soccer, roller skating, and several martial arts disciplines such as wushu, muaythai, and kickboxing.

Arwani assessed that Bekasi City's readiness is on par with that of other regions co-hosting the 2026 West Java Porprov, namely Bogor City and Depok City.

In fact, he continued, the Bogor City Government had visited Bekasi City to directly observe the readiness of the venues.

"Compared to other regions, we are just as prepared. In fact, yesterday, Bogor City came here to inspect the readiness of our venues," he said.

Despite being the main host, several sports will still use venues outside Bekasi City to accommodate the needs of the competition venues. Rowing, for example, will be held at Lake Cipule, Karawang, while sailing will take place in Indramayu.

In addition to focusing on venue readiness, the Bekasi City Government also aims to make the 2026 West Java Porprov the best in history. Various improvements to supporting facilities and preparations for the opening ceremony are being finalized ahead of the upcoming November event.

"We want this Provincial Sports Week (Porprov) to be a legacy for Bekasi City. Not only in terms of success in terms of achievements, but also in terms of successful implementation," Arwani concluded.

Therefore, the West Java Governor stated that he wants to make adjustments so that investments can proceed and agriculture can be replaced. “I have received a strategic recommendation to replace it threefold. So, if there is an LP2B area called LP2B 200, then 600 hectares of new rice fields will be prepared,” he explained. Dedi Mulyadi emphasized that his party will act quickly and that everything will be located in the West Java region, possibly in the Indramayu region because it is closer to Subang Regency," he stressed. To a number of media crews, the Governor of West Java explained that he would prioritize opening new land in Indramayu. “In Indramayu, there are many areas that have been planted with rice but have not yet been formed into rice fields, still relying on rainwater and the like,” he explained. Dedi Mulyadi also revealed plans to restore the function of vacant PTPN areas. "We will restore their function to agricultural use. Tea will return to tea, coffee to coffee. Rubber will return to rubber, but integrated with agricultural interests," the West Java Governor stated. [SOURCE]
