The General Election (Pemilu) is a primary pillar in the implementation of people’s sovereignty in Indonesia. This process marks an important moment in the practice of democracy, where people have the right to elect their leaders directly, freely, secretly, honestly, and fairly.

“One thing to watch out for in every democratic event amid the rapid digitalization and social media is the susceptibility to the spread of hoaxes and hate speech with ethnic, religious, racial, and inter-group (SARA) nuances, which have the potential to create polarization that can divide the unity of society,” said Edy in Palangka Raya, quoted from Antara, Friday (June 21, 2024).

As per Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Chairman of the Daily Board of the Gerindra Party, this idea is viewed by his faction as merely an aspiration. “Yes, what we have is just a discussion in the media, and we consider it only an aspiration and it has not reached the level of party discussions within the Advanced Indonesia Coalition,” said Dasco at Rumah Kertanegara, South Jakarta, on Friday, (June 7, 2024). Meanwhile, Kaesang mentioned that the determination regarding his nomination for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada will be decided in August. “As I have said before, wait for the surprise in August,” remarked Kaesang at the PSI Office in Jakarta, on Friday (June 7, 2024). He hinted that there will be a surprise about whether he will run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The youngest child of President Jokowi asked everyone to wait patiently as the registration for the candidates for governor and deputy governor through political parties will begin from August 27 to August 29, 2024. “The registration is still far off, it’s still in August, late August. Wait,” he said, according to Antara.

Alleged Prohibition by Jokowi, Kaesang Pangarep: That’s Zulhas’s Version of the Story The Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, also responded the claim that he was prohibited by President Jokowi from running in the Jakarta Pilkada. According to Kaesang, that version is the Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, alias Zulhas. “That’s Zulhas’s version of the story,” he said. He then turned the question back to the media. “So, have you heard my side of the story yet?” questioned Kaesang.

Upon hearing this, a number of journalists asked him to explain, but Kaesang opted to decline. “It’s a confidential,” said Kaesang before departing. Previously, Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, stated that President Jokowi forbade his youngest son, Kaesang Pangarep, from running for the Jakarta gubernatorial election. “Earlier, I asked the President after the meeting. ‘Sir, what about Kaesang running for Jakarta deputy governor?’ ‘Oh no,’ he said, ‘Don’t do it, Mr. Zul,'” Zulkifli Hasan stated at the PAN DPP, South Jakarta, on Monday, (June 3, 2024). Zulkifli Hasan earlier suggested that Kaesang pair up with Zita Anjani in the Jakarta Pilkada because he wanted Jakarta to be led by young people. “Kaesang is young, I even proposed it before, ‘Sir, I proposed it a year ago, what if Jakarta is led by young people, Kaesang.’ That was about a year ago, if I’m not mistaken,” he mentioned. Although the Supreme Court (MA) has altered the age limit for regional head candidates, giving Kaesang the opportunity to run for the Jakarta gubernatorial election, Jokowi nevertheless prohibited it. “‘Now it’s allowed, Sir.’ I said earlier, yes, then who was the one who filed the lawsuit, right. Now it’s allowed, it was legally contested. ‘Don’t do it, Mr. Zul,’ that’s about it,” he concluded. PSI Secretary-General Says No Internal Discussion Yet About Kaesang Running for 2024 Pilkada The Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, is the potential to run as a gubernatorial candidate after the Supreme Court (MA) issued a regulation regarding the age of regional head candidates. However, there has been no decision from Kaesang on whether he will run for regional head. Kaesang has been speculated to participate in the Jakarta gubernatorial election after his poster appeared alongside Gerindra politician and Prabowo’s nephew, Budi Djiwandono. The Secretary-General of PSI, Raja Juli Antoni, revealed that there hasn’t been any internal discussion regarding the youngest son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) running in the 2024 Pilkada. “No (internal discussion yet),” stated Antoni at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, on Monday (June 3, 2024). Antoni stated that whether Kaesang will run this year depends on Kaesang himself. Furthermore, the coalition parties of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) need to discuss whether it is advantageous for Kaesang to run in the Pilkada or not. “Ask Mas Kaesang,” he mentioned. “It depends on Mas Kaesang and KIM what’s best,” added Antoni. **2024 Pilkada Schedule** Here is the schedule for the 2024 Pilkada stages: 1.
