Overview

In December 2016, PSSI and the league operator planned to use foreign referees for the 2017 competition. The use of foreign referee was intended to improve the quality of the competition. [1] However, two weeks before the league starts, this plan was cancelled. [2]

After a wide criticism, protest and dissatisfaction towards the local referees during the first round of the season, [3] [4] PSSI revisited the idea. On 18 July 2017, PSSI and the league operator officially announced the use of foreign referees and assistant referees in select matches for the second round. [5] There will be two sets of officials (consisted of 1 referee and 2 assistant referees), each coming from Australia, Kyrgyzstan, Iran and Japan. [6]
