Correct Answer: He said that he would go to Indonesia the next day.


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The steps of conversion are as follows:

  • There would be no change in the reporting verb.
  • The modal "will" is changed to its past form "would".
  • The time reference "tomorrow" is changed to "next day".
  • The connector "that" is used to introduce the reported clause.

Therefore, the sentence in indirect form is: "He said that he would go to Indonesia the next day."
