Indonesia Listed Green in Qatar, Vaccinated Soccer Fans May Rejoice

Since August 2 last year, Indonesia had been categorized as a red country, before turning special red on October 3, which required a longer quarantine period.

On January 1, Indonesia returned to the red list.

The Indonesian Embassy in Doha continued to approach the authorities in Qatar.

In various meetings with local officials, Indonesian Ambassador to Qatar Ridwan Hassan conveyed positive developments in the pandemic mitigation in Indonesia.

The situation in Qatar has been getting better after reaching the peak of the third wave on January 12 when daily cases reached more than 4,200.

This year, Qatar will host the 2022 FIFA World Cup, gathering soccer fans from all over the world.

"Soccer fans from Indonesia must be very happy to welcome this news. However, they must fortify themselves with a full dose of vaccine first," said Ridwan. (ant/dil/mcr20/jpnn)
