Kementerian Luar Negeri Malaysia meminta maaf pada seluruh rakyat Indonesia atas insiden terbaliknya bendera Indonesia di buku panduan SEA Games 2017.

Sebelum Kementerian Luar Negerinya, Kementerian Pemuda dan Olahraga Malaysia telah lebih dulu meminta maaf.

Bahkan pihak Kementerian Olahraga Malaysia langsung menemui Menteri Pemuda dan Olahraga dari Indonesia, Imam Nahrawi.

Mungkin dengan adanya permintaan maaf resmi ini, diharapkan masalah ini akan cepat selesai tanpa melukai persahabatan kedua negara.
