Among them is a letter requesting approval and determination of Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan and Mr. Mohammad Sohibul Iman as the governor and deputy governor candidates of Jakarta,” stated Syaikhu.

Typically, the Pilkada is conducted twice, namely the regional implementation and the legal dispute process at the Constitutional Court (Mahkamah Konstitusi). “Usually, if the Pilkada is held twice, it means what? That means first conducted locally, and then at the MK,” stated Hadi while giving instructions in the Coordination Meeting of the 2024 simultaneous Pilkada organizers in Makassar, South Sulawesi, on June 26th. “That’s why the Indonesian National Armed Forces-Police have to be cautious about security during the actual Pilkada and during the MK sessions, ensuring the readiness of the TNI-Polri forces to secure the regions,” he added. Hadi hopes the 2024 Pilkada stages will proceed smoothly and safely without any obstacles in their implementation.

Baswedan only gave a slight smile when he was informed of the accusations of Jokowi’s involvement. He did not want to comment further on the matter. “All processes are still ongoing, just let it flow,” Anies said when met after attending a gathering with the DKI Jakarta Youth Organization MPW in Pejaten, South Jakarta, on Wednesday. Furthermore, Anies stated that he currently focuses on issues related to the well-being of Jakarta residents over other matters. “For us, the chief matter is the prosperity of Jakarta residents. It’s not about who will be the running mate, that’s not the point, and the process is still long, just let it be,” Baswedan said.

Reacting to Jokowi’s Intention to Distribute Social Assistance Prior to Pilkada This was regarding President Widodo’s intention to continue giving out social aid in the form of rice until the end of 2024. “We not only sense interference but witness it plainly and openly, in Javanese it’s plainly obvious,” said Djarot at the Head Office of PDI Perjuangan, Jalan Diponegoro, Jakarta, on May 16, 2024. “Meaning, the intervention is very clear, very visible. It’s very evident,” he went on. Hidayat stressed that the continued distribution of welfare aid until December amounts to an abuse of power. PDIP Requests KPU and Bawaslu to Intervene Therefore, PDIP called on the Electoral Commission and the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu) to address these evidences. Djarot Saiful Hidayat wishes that the overreach by President Joko Widodo, which occurred during the 2024 Presidential race, will not be seen again in the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections. “We really demand the election organizers, to truly supervise. Including the media and the youth. Especially since the social assistance will be extended until December,” he emphasized.
