“We are not conducting an eligibility or proper test; we already know Mr. Anies’ quality. He has been a presidential candidate,” said Ahmad Syaikhu at the PKS Central Executive Board, Jakarta, quoted Wednesday (June 19, 2024).

Huda reminded that the Jakarta Regional Election is very fluid and nothing is fixed, including PKS as the winner of the Jakarta Election but unable to nominate candidates independently. “Nominating two figures as governor and deputy governor candidates requires a party that already has a golden ticket, which means 20 percent,” he said. “We know that PKS won the recent legislative elections. However, they haven’t reached 20 percent because they only have 18 seats, while 20 percent requires 22 seats,” concluded Huda.

Previously, the KPU RI officially launched the stages for the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections at Prambanan Temple, Sleman Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta, on Sunday (31/3). Here is the schedule for the 2024 Pilkada stages:

Previously, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) officially endorsed Anies Baswedan and Sohibul Iman as prospective governor (cagub) and deputy governor (cawagub) candidates for the 2024 Jakarta Regional Election.

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.

Earlier, Gerindra Party Deputy Chairman, Habiburokhman, stated that his party is very open to Anies Baswedan meeting with the 2024 Presidential Election winner, Prabowo Subianto. According to Habiburokhman, Anies Baswedan and Prabowo Subianto are national figures . He welcomed the idea if the meeting were to take place .

One possibility is to endorse Baswedan Anies in the next election in November. “Regarding our partners at PDIP, we are very welcoming of working with PDIP and all parties, not just in DKI, but in various regions as well,” said D. Johan in Jakarta on Saturday. On this occasion, PKB, along with the former governor of DKI Jakarta, already holds the same goals and objectives for the Jakarta Pilkada. Therefore, it’s just a matter of time before the party led by Muhaimin Iskandar, publicly endorses A. Baswedan. “Pak Anies has already mentioned that with PKB, there’s no need for words; we’ve already worked together. So, the official statement is just a minor technicality. The main point is we are united in vision. Now, we just anticipate the formal announcement,” said Daniel. “As for the running mate, that’s up to the Pilkada desk to decide, working on everything to a team, including the deputy. We await the Pilkada desk’s statement,” he ended.

Concerning the 2024 Regional Elections, Anies mentioned that he is establishing communication with various political parties, including Gerindra, led by Prabowo. “We all want Jakarta to progress and for its residents to be happy. That is not just the aspiration of one or two parties; everyone wants that. So, we are building communication with everyone,” said Anies.
