Sebuah ironi menyelimuti pertandingan pencak silat dalam setiap penyelenggaraan SEA Games. An irony of the game covering the martial arts in every implementation of the SEA Games. Di satu sisi, Indonesia patut berbangga karena cabang olahraga bela diri itu sepenuhnya berasal dari tanah Nusantara. On the one hand, Indonesia should be proud because it is a martial sport derived entirely from the land of the archipelago. Namun, di sisi lain, Indonesia juga patut prihatin karena dominasi Indonesia di cabang itu nyaris tak tersisa. However, on the other hand, Indonesia is also worthy of concern because of the dominance of Indonesia in the branch was almost nothing left.

Pada SEA Games 2005 di Filipina, gelar juara umum cabang pencak silat diraih Vietnam dengan tujuh emas, tiga perak, dan dua perunggu. At the 2005 SEA Games in the Philippines, his branch of martial arts champion won Vietnam with seven gold, three silver and two bronze. Saudara tua Indonesia menempati urutan kedua dengan lima emas, empat perak, dan dua perunggu. Older siblings Indonesia ranks second with five gold, four silver and two bronze.

Kalau mau menelisik lebih jauh lagi, ironi di balik cabang pencak silat akan terasa semakin kental. If you want to probe further, the irony behind the branches of martial arts will be felt more and more viscous. Bayangkan, tampilnya Vietnam sebagai juara umum SEA Games 2005 tak lepas dari tangan dingin Suhartono, pelatih silat asal Indonesia. Imagine, the emergence of Vietnam as SEA Games 2005 champion could not be separated from the cold hands Suhartono, martial arts trainer from Indonesia. Pria berambut tipis ini memang diberi tugas yang tidak biasa oleh petinggi organisasi pencak silat dunia, yakni memajukan olahraga bela diri itu di kawasan Asia Tenggara. This thin-haired man was given an unusual assignment by the top brass of the world of martial arts organization, promoting the martial arts in the Southeast Asia region.

Alhasil, ia pun berkeliling dari satu negara ke negara lain di Asia Tenggara, kecuali Indonesia tentunya. As a result, he traveling from one country to other countries in Southeast Asia, except Indonesia of course. Tugas mulia Suhartono itu berhasil. Suhartono noble task was successful. Vietnam, Filipina, dan Thailand kian memperlihatkan taring mereka di dunia pencak silat. Vietnam, the Philippines, and Thailand are increasingly showing their fangs in the world of martial arts.

Menjelang SEA Games 2007 di Thailand, Suhartono mengatakan, dirinya dapat merasakan kehendak kuat dunia pencak silat Thailand untuk tampil sangat mengesankan di SEA Games. Towards SEA Games 2007 in Thailand, Suhartono said he could feel the strong will of the Thai martial arts world to look very impressive at the SEA Games. Saya yakin Thailand akan menjadi kejutan besar nanti, tegas Suhartono seperti dikutip situs berita online Vietnam, awal Desember. I believe Thailand will be a big surprise later, Suhartono said as quoted by online news sites of Vietnam, in early December.

Vietnam, juara umum pencak silat SEA Games 2005, mengakui Thailand memang akan menjadi lawan tangguh. Vietnam, champion martial arts SEA Games 2005, recognizes Thailand would indeed be a formidable opponent. Namun, negeri yang porak-poranda dilanda perang pada dekade 1970-an itu tetap optimistis mereka mampu mempertahankan gelar juara umum. However, a country ravaged in the war-torn decade of the 1970's remain optimistic that they are able to maintain the overall champion title. Keberhasilan menjadi juara umum pada Kejuaraan Dunia 2007 di Malaysia menjadi salah satu sumber optimisme itu. The success of the overall champion at the 2007 World Championships in Malaysia to be one source of optimism.

Bayangkan, mereka memborong 12 emas, delapan perak, dan tiga perunggu. Imagine, they bought 12 gold, eight silver and three bronze. Namun, seperti dilaporkan vietnamnews.vnagency.com.vn, Vietnam tetap memandang saudara tua Indonesia sebagai ancaman serius pada SEA Games 2007. However, as reported vietnamnews.vnagency.com.vn, Vietnam, Indonesia still looked older brother as a serious threat to the SEA Games 2007. Indonesia adalah rival utama Vietnam. Indonesia is the main rival Vietnam. Mereka meraih dua emas di Malaysia (Kejuaraan Dunia) dan itu dilakukan oleh tim lapis kedua Indonesia, kata pelatih tim pencak silat Vietnam, Nguyen Xuan Hai. They won two gold in Malaysia (World Championship) and was carried out by Indonesia's second-tier team, said team coach martial arts of Vietnam, Nguyen Xuan Hai.

Di Cebu, Filipina, dua tahun silam, Suhartono mengatakan, Vietnam memiliki disiplin pembinaan yang sangat bagus. In Cebu, the Philippines, two years ago, Suhartono said, Vietnam has a very good coaching discipline. Bahkan, disiplin pesilat Veitnam betul-betul disiplin mati atau tak ada toleransi sedikit pun. In fact, discipline really Veitnam fighters dead discipline or no tolerance whatsoever. Suhartono yang selama beberapa tahun pernah ikut menangani tim pencak silat Vietnam menyebut kedisiplinan itulah yang menjadi alasan utama mengapa pencak silat Vietnam cepat berkembang. Suhartono who for years had joined the team handle calls Vietnam martial arts discipline that is the main reason why the fastest growing martial arts Vietnam.

Dari cabang pencak silat, dunia olahraga Indonesia bisa belajar satu hal penting, yakni status saudara tua tak menjamin apa-apa karena dunia terus bergerak maju. Branch of martial arts, sport Indonesia can learn one important thing, namely the status of the elder brother does not guarantee anything because the world continues to move forward. Siapa yang enggan maju jelas akan tertinggal di belakang. Who would obviously be reluctant to advance behind. (Kompas-ato) (Compass-ato)

At the 2005 SEA Games in the Philippines, his branch of martial arts champion won Vietnam with seven gold, three silver and two bronze. Saudara tua Indonesia menempati urutan kedua dengan lima emas, empat perak, dan dua perunggu. Older siblings Indonesia ranks second with five gold, four silver and two bronze.

Kalau mau menelisik lebih jauh lagi, ironi di balik cabang pencak silat akan terasa semakin kental. If you want to probe further, the irony behind the branches of martial arts will be felt more and more viscous. Bayangkan, tampilnya Vietnam sebagai juara umum SEA Games 2005 tak lepas dari tangan dingin Suhartono, pelatih silat asal Indonesia. Imagine, the emergence of Vietnam as SEA Games 2005 champion could not be separated from the cold hands Suhartono, martial arts trainer from Indonesia. Pria berambut tipis ini memang diberi tugas yang tidak biasa oleh petinggi organisasi pencak silat dunia, yakni memajukan olahraga bela diri itu di kawasan Asia Tenggara. This thin-haired man was given an unusual assignment by the top brass of the world of martial arts organization, promoting the martial arts in the Southeast Asia region.

Alhasil, ia pun berkeliling dari satu negara ke negara lain di Asia Tenggara, kecuali Indonesia tentunya. As a result, he traveling from one country to other countries in Southeast Asia, except Indonesia of course. Tugas mulia Suhartono itu berhasil. Suhartono noble task was successful. Vietnam, Filipina, dan Thailand kian memperlihatkan taring mereka di dunia pencak silat. Vietnam, the Philippines, and Thailand are increasingly showing their fangs in the world of martial arts.

Menjelang SEA Games 2007 di Thailand, Suhartono mengatakan, dirinya dapat merasakan kehendak kuat dunia pencak silat Thailand untuk tampil sangat mengesankan di SEA Games. Towards SEA Games 2007 in Thailand, Suhartono said he could feel the strong will of the Thai martial arts world to look very impressive at the SEA Games. Saya yakin Thailand akan menjadi kejutan besar nanti, tegas Suhartono seperti dikutip situs berita online Vietnam, awal Desember. I believe Thailand will be a big surprise later, Suhartono said as quoted by online news sites of Vietnam, in early December.

Vietnam, juara umum pencak silat SEA Games 2005, mengakui Thailand memang akan menjadi lawan tangguh. Vietnam, champion martial arts SEA Games 2005, recognizes Thailand would indeed be a formidable opponent. Namun, negeri yang porak-poranda dilanda perang pada dekade 1970-an itu tetap optimistis mereka mampu mempertahankan gelar juara umum. However, a country ravaged in the war-torn decade of the 1970's remain optimistic that they are able to maintain the overall champion title. Keberhasilan menjadi juara umum pada Kejuaraan Dunia 2007 di Malaysia menjadi salah satu sumber optimisme itu. The success of the overall champion at the 2007 World Championships in Malaysia to be one source of optimism.

Bayangkan, mereka memborong 12 emas, delapan perak, dan tiga perunggu. Imagine, they bought 12 gold, eight silver and three bronze. Namun, seperti dilaporkan vietnamnews.vnagency.com.vn, Vietnam tetap memandang saudara tua Indonesia sebagai ancaman serius pada SEA Games 2007. However, as reported vietnamnews.vnagency.com.vn, Vietnam, Indonesia still looked older brother as a serious threat to the SEA Games 2007. Indonesia adalah rival utama Vietnam. Indonesia is the main rival Vietnam. Mereka meraih dua emas di Malaysia (Kejuaraan Dunia) dan itu dilakukan oleh tim lapis kedua Indonesia, kata pelatih tim pencak silat Vietnam, Nguyen Xuan Hai. They won two gold in Malaysia (World Championship) and was carried out by Indonesia's second-tier team, said team coach martial arts of Vietnam, Nguyen Xuan Hai.

Di Cebu, Filipina, dua tahun silam, Suhartono mengatakan, Vietnam memiliki disiplin pembinaan yang sangat bagus. In Cebu, the Philippines, two years ago, Suhartono said, Vietnam has a very good coaching discipline. Bahkan, disiplin pesilat Veitnam betul-betul disiplin mati atau tak ada toleransi sedikit pun. In fact, discipline really Veitnam fighters dead discipline or no tolerance whatsoever. Suhartono yang selama beberapa tahun pernah ikut menangani tim pencak silat Vietnam menyebut kedisiplinan itulah yang menjadi alasan utama mengapa pencak silat Vietnam cepat berkembang. Suhartono who for years had joined the team handle calls Vietnam martial arts discipline that is the main reason why the fastest growing martial arts Vietnam.

Dari cabang pencak silat, dunia olahraga Indonesia bisa belajar satu hal penting, yakni status saudara tua tak menjamin apa-apa karena dunia terus bergerak maju. Branch of martial arts, sport Indonesia can learn one important thing, namely the status of the elder brother does not guarantee anything because the world continues to move forward. Siapa yang enggan maju jelas akan tertinggal di belakang. Who would obviously be reluctant to advance behind. (Kompas-ato) (Compass-ato)

Sebuah ironi menyelimuti pertandingan pencak silat dalam setiap penyelenggaraan SEA Games. An irony of the game covering the martial arts in every implementation of the SEA Games. Di satu sisi, Indonesia patut berbangga karena cabang olahraga bela diri itu sepenuhnya berasal dari tanah Nusantara. On the one hand, Indonesia should be proud because it is a martial sport derived entirely from the land of the archipelago. Namun, di sisi lain, Indonesia juga patut prihatin karena dominasi Indonesia di cabang itu nyaris tak tersisa.
