NasDem Party General Chairman Surya Paloh mentioned that Anies Baswedan still has the highest electability and is likely to win in the Jakarta Pilkada. “From what I gather from various sources, Anies Baswedan currently dominates all survey scores, ranking number one. I think it’s exhausting for anyone to face him in Jakarta,” said Surya Paloh at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Monday, June 24, 2024. Even compared to NasDem Party Treasurer Ahmad Sahroni, Anies’s electability is still much higher. Thus, Surya Paloh does not want to risk forcing his cadre to run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. “NasDem does not prioritize candidacy issues solely from the cadre aspect,” stated Paloh. “Sahroni may have the capability, we believe that, but his electability in the Jakarta arena needs careful consideration,” he added.
Furthermore, Syaikhu is confident that the Anies-Sohibul Iman pair is a good match. According to Syaikhu, they complement each other well for the 2024 Jakarta Regional Election. “There is already a nickname for them, AMAN (Anies-Sohibul Iman). Whatever the name, (Anies-Sohibul Iman) have strong qualifications, are compatible, and can complement each other in leading Jakarta,” said Syaikhu.
Unexpectedly, the Islamic party announced Mohamad Sohibul Iman as the Jakarta gubernatorial candidate, while two well-known names, Anies Baswedan and Ridwan Kamil, were frequently mentioned in the news. As the winning party in the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta, PKS feels justified and well-equipped to nominate its own cadre. “As the winning party (legislative elections) in Jakarta, PKS has decided to fight for its best cadre as the Jakarta gubernatorial candidate. The candidate we are nominating is Mohamad Sohibul Iman, who currently serves as the Deputy Chair of the PKS Syuro Council,” stated PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) Spokesperson Ahmad Mabruri on Sunday, June 23, 2024. “We have decided that we will propose Mohamad Sohibul Iman, former PKS President, former Deputy Speaker of the DPR RI, and former Rector of Paramadina University. With whom PKS and Mr. Sohibul Iman will pair, we will see based on the coalition composition that forms,” Mabruri continued.
“The proposal from Eriko is interesting,” stated Huda at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 26, 2024. According to Huda, the possibility of PKB forming a coalition with PDIP in Jakarta is open if PDIP is willing to become the deputy governor for Anies and if PKS does not manage to find a coalition partner in the Jakarta Pilkada. “It is possible that PKB, with PDIP as the deputy, could happen if PKS does not get to form a coalition,” explained Huda.
Previously, PDIP DPP Chairperson Mr. Sotarduga suggested that if their party partners with PKB to support Anies Baswedan in the Jakarta Pilkada, they propose the gubernatorial seat in East Java to PDIP. “For instance, in Jakarta, if PKB becomes the gubernatorial candidate, may PDIP be the gubernatorial candidate in East Java? Of course, it’s not a barter, but that’s what cooperation means, we can’t achieve everything on our own, we must work together,” said Eriko at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 25, 2024.
“We are not opening an eligibility or proper test; we already know Mr. Anies’ quality. He was already a presidential candidate,” said Ahmad Syaikhu at the PKS Central Executive Board, Jakarta, quoted Wednesday (June 19, 2024) .
The President of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), Ahmad Syaikhu, confirmed that his party did not conduct an eligibility and propriety test for Anies Baswedan as a candidate to run in the 2024 Jakarta Regional Election .
Anies mentioned that dialogue with all figures, including Prabowo, is necessary for regional development . “In the end, we want every region in Indonesia to get leadership that advances and brings happiness to the residents,” he said . “So, God willing, we will have dialogues with everyone, discussions with everyone,” added the former presidential candidate.
“They (Anies and Prabowo) are both national figures. There is nothing wrong with initiating communication. It is good. The more meetings between figures, the better,” said Habiburokhman at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, quoted Friday (June 21, 2024).
“PPP has experienced a prolonged conflict before; internal division took up a lot of time and brought no benefits. Now, all party members must come together as one large family, joining forces and working collectively. Therefore, set aside potential divisions such as the matter of the congress, whether it’s an special congress or an early congress,” said Fernita on Monday. Fernita stated that the party already has rules or mechanisms in place. Thus, a determination cannot be made by a single entity or, in other words, without adhering to the set procedures. “So, if there are pushes for an early congress to replace the chairman, it must adhere to PPP’s rules or systems. The execution of a congress must go through the National Working Meeting, following the national leadership conference, and earlier, a DPP daily board meeting to decide the working meeting or the National Leadership Meeting,” she explained. “Recently, the IX national leadership conference, attended by 38 DPW from across Indonesia, resulted in a decision that the national meeting will be held based on the AD/ART period, which is in 2025. This dismisses all issues or calls for an early congress,” she highlighted. United Lastly, Fernita called for that following the 2024 elections, the entire large family and elder statesmen of PPP commence drafting strategies for facing the 2029 polls. “God willing|If God wills|Inshallah, by standing together, PPP will be ready to handle the 2029 polls even better,” she ended.
