Jakarta Police to Implement Situational Traffic Control for Indonesia vs. Oman Match

Traffic management will be implemented situationally around the Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) Stadium in Jakarta on Friday, June 5, 2026, to anticipate congestion during the international football match between Indonesia and Oman. Central Jakarta Police Chief Commissioner Reynold E.P. Hutagalung stated that traffic flow adjustments will be made as needed in the Senayan area.

Road users are strongly encouraged to find alternative routes and steer clear of the GBK vicinity while the match is underway. The game is scheduled to kick off at 8:00 PM Western Indonesian Time (WIB). The police are deploying a substantial force of 1,400 combined personnel to ensure security in and around the stadium premises.

While emphasizing a firm stance against spectators bringing fireworks, flares, or firecrackers, Hutagalung assured that all security personnel will maintain a humane approach. "All personnel involved in security must remain humane; we serve our brothers and sisters who will watch the football match. No one should carry firearms during security operations," he stated.

Historically, Indonesia and Oman have met six times, with Indonesia securing victories in the 1987 and 1988 King's Cup tournaments. However, Oman has dominated recent encounters. Oman won 1-0 in a 2007 friendly, followed by a 0-0 draw in the 2011 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers and a 2-1 victory for Oman in 2010. Their last meeting in May 2021 saw Indonesia, then coached by Shin Tae-yong, lose 1-3 in a friendly match. Both nations failed to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, being eliminated in the fourth round of Asian qualifiers last October.
