He was a goalkeeper for the Indonesia national football team. In the Asian Cup 2007, Rotinsulu was the third goalkeeper after Yandri Pitoy and Markus Horison. He was also a former member of Indonesia U-23 Team at Sea Games 2005 Manila, Philippines, where he was the second choice goalkeeper after Syamsidar.[citation needed]

"I want to be the son of Palu with good contribution for nation by playing football. I wouldn't reach only halfway in my career. I want to be number one goalkeeper." Ferry said.

Arjuna Rinaldi, Sriwijaya's goalkeeping coach, said, "He is a spider on the web that's difficult to penetrate by enemies." [citation needed]. In 2007, Sriwijaya won double titles as the champion of Liga Indonesia 2007 and Piala Indonesia 2007.[citation needed] He became one of the key players in the success of the team's double winners.[citation needed]

Rotinsulu reportedly became a goalkeeper because he is a big fan of Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.[citation needed]

Rotinsulu is a devout Muslim who observes the Islamic month of Ramadan.[1]
