The 2018 Asian Games fire trip from New Delhi, India to Jogjakarta, was not as planned. Indeed, before being transported to Jogjakarta using the Boeing 737 Air Force, there were obstacles, especially those relating to flight safety and security procedures.

"The fire was carried in a lantern and should not die.Therefore, one must take care of," explained the former Olympian badminton athlete who won the Barcelona Olympics in 1992.

During the journey of fire was escorted 16 members of the Air Force personnel. Even so, he still does not calm the fire. Because he must still burn. And after a long journey of 11 hours, the fire finally arrived remains in a state of fire.

For the flight itself before Jogjakarta had a few hours of transit in Indian territory to refuel and other technical necessities. "After that, just continue the trip here (Jogjakarta) do not stop in Jakarta," he said. Susy herself is proud to have the confidence to bring the fire of the 2018 Asian Games to India and it is also an amazing experience.

Susy hopes that fire will not only become a burial, but that it will unite and strengthen the friendship of the Asian nation and, more importantly, unite all components of the Indonesian nation. "I hope the 2018 Asian Games, Indonesia will not only be a success in implementation, but also a success," he said.
