One option is to support Anies Baswedan in the next election in late 2024. “Regarding our colleagues at PDIP, we are very welcoming of working with PDIP and all parties, not just in DKI, but in other regions as well,” said Daniel Johan in Jakarta on Saturday. On this occasion, PKB, along with the former governor of DKI Jakarta, already shares the same vision and mission for the Jakarta Pilkada. Therefore, it’s just a matter of time before the party led by Iskandar Muhaimin, publicly backs A. Baswedan. “Baswedan has already explained that with PKB, there’s no need for words; we’ve already fought together. So, the official statement is just a minor technicality. The key issue is we are sharing the same vision. Now, we just anticipate the official announcement,” said D. Johan. “As for the running mate, that’s up to the Pilkada committee to determine, developing everything to a duet, including the deputy. We await the Pilkada desk’s announcement,” he ended.
As per Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Daily Chairman of the Gerindra Party, this proposal is viewed by his faction as merely an aspiration. “Yes, what we have is merely a discussion in the media, and we consider it just 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 stated that the decision regarding his nomination for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada will be made 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 is a surprise regarding 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 pairs for governor and deputy governor through political parties will start from August 27 to August 29, 2024. “The registration is still far off, it’s still in August, at the end of August. Be patient,” he stated, as quoted by Antara. Previously, on Wednesday, May 29, 2024, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Daily Chairman of the Gerindra Party, posted a photo of Budisatrio Djiwandono alongside Kaesang Pangarep on his personal Instagram account @sufmi_dasco, with the caption “For Jakarta 2024.” In addition to pairing Budisatrio with Kaesang, If you have any thoughts concerning wherever and how to use Medical partner matching, you can get hold of us at the site. Dasco also uploaded a photo of Budisatrio with public figure Raffi Ahmad similar to a pair campaign flyer on his personal Instagram. On Thursday, April 18, 2024, Ahmad Muzani, the Secretary-General of the Gerindra Party, mentioned that the figure in preparation for the Jakarta Pilkada is still being finalized. The Gerindra Party has several young candidates, including Budisatrio Djiwandono and Moreno Soeprapto. “We have a strong candidate, especially a fresh and young figure,” he mentioned at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta. Alleged Prohibition by Jokowi, Kaesang Pangarep: That’s Mr. Zulhas’s Version of the Story Head of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, also responded the statement that he was prohibited by President Jokowi from running in the Jakarta Pilkada. As per Kaesang, that story belongs to the Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, also known as Zulhas. “That’s Mr. Zulhas’s version of the story,” he said. He then turned the question back to the media. “So, have you heard my version of the story yet?” questioned Kaesang. Upon hearing this, several journalists requested him to elaborate, but Kaesang opted to keep it to himself. “It’s a confidential,” concluded Kaesang before leaving. Previously, Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, said 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 said at the PAN DPP, South Jakarta, on Monday, (June 3, 2024). Zulhas previously proposed that Kaesang pair up with Zita Anjani in the Jakarta Pilkada because he desired Jakarta to be led by young people. “Kaesang is young, I even proposed it before, ‘Sir, I suggested 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 said. Although the Supreme Court (MA) had altered the age limit for regional head candidates, giving Kaesang the chance to run for the Jakarta gubernatorial election, Jokowi nevertheless forbade it. “‘Now it’s permissible, Sir.’ I mentioned earlier, yes, then who is the one who challenged it, right. Now it’s permissible, 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, has a potential to run as a gubernatorial candidate after the Supreme Court (MA) issued a regulation concerning 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 was posted alongside Gerindra politician and Prabowo’s nephew, Budi Djiwandono. The Secretary-General of PSI, Raja Juli Antoni, revealed that there has been no internal discussion concerning the youngest son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) running in the 2024 Pilkada. “No (internal discussion yet),” said 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 beneficial for Kaesang to run in the Pilkada or not. “Ask Mas Kaesang,” he said. “It depends on Mas Kaesang and KIM what’s best,” remarked Antoni. **2024 Pilkada Schedule** Here is the schedule for the 2024 Pilkada stages: 1.
