Previously, the Balangan PABSI has won gold at the provincial level competition in Tabalong. Now Balangan, who always encourages its athletes to compete, has brought in a national coach.

He hopes that all 10 athletes will always be motivated by the presence of a new coach, and will offer the best for Bumi Sanggam (nickname of Balangan).

"We also really hope for support from the local government for Balangan PABSI activities to get the best results, because weightlifting has a very large chance of winning medals," he said.
