However, based on current survey data, there are only two major names. “Anies is still the strongest, closely followed by RK,” he said, as quoted on Saturday (8/6/2024). Other names, although appearing in surveys, are still not competitive enough to compete with Anies Baswedan or RK. “If a name like Anies can run, the only suitable opponent is RK. Other names are not yet competitive,” Adi said.

“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) .

The discussion addressed inflation and the 2024 regional elections (Pilkada). “Oh yes, when party leaders meet, they discuss many things. But what we discussed was inflation. We also talked about the Pilkada,” Zulhas told reporters in the Presidential Palace Complex in Jakarta, on June 14, 2024. Zulhas said he suggested ex-Governor of West Java, Ridwan Kamil, to be put forward for the 2023 Jakarta Pilkada. According to him, the proposal was approved by the party chairpersons who attended the meeting. “Yes, I suggested Ridwan Kamil in Jakarta, and everyone was in agreement,” he remarked. When asked whether Kaesang would run with Ridwan Kamil in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada, Zulkifli Hasan said that it had not been decided yet. However, he stated that the party leaders needed Kaesang to secure the Pilkada. “Yes, I believe so. I informed at that time to the President whether Kaesang could. The President said, ‘No’. But the parties need him,” he added. “Yes, but the parties need him. For what? To win,” continued. He thinks that Ridwan Kamil wouldn’t mind whoever runs with him in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada, as long as it ensures victory. Zulkifli Hasan mentioned that Ridwan Kamil’s deputy will be discussed by the party leaders. “Mr. RK (Ridwan Kamil) would accept anyone as long as they ensure victory. As long as they win, we will decide together,” said Zulhas.

Only one pair of independent candidates for governor and deputy governor of Jakarta submitted their support documents to the Jakarta General Election Commission (KPU) by the deadline. This pair is Dharma Pongrekun-Kun Wardana. The KPU DKI Jakarta officially closed the submission of support documents for prospective governor candidates on Sunday, May 12, 2024, at 11:59 PM WIB. “We announce that by the deadline for submitting support documents for independent or individual candidates at 11:59 PM WIB, there is only one pair, namely Dharma Pongrekun-Kun Wardana,” said KPU DKI member Astri Megatari in Jakarta, according to Antara.

As per Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Chairman of the Daily Board of the Gerindra Party, this idea is considered by his faction as only an aspiration. “Yes, the current situation is merely a discussion in the media, and we consider it only an aspiration and it has not reached the level of party talks 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 decided in August. “As I stated before, wait for the surprise in August,” said Kaesang at the PSI Office in Jakarta, on Friday (June 7, 2024). He indicated that there is a surprise regarding whether he will run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The youngest child of President Jokowi requested 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 is still in August, at the end of August. Wait,” he said, as quoted by Antara. Previously, on Wednesday, May 29, 2024, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Chairman of the Daily Board 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.” Besides posting Budisatrio with Kaesang, Dasco also posted a photo of Budisatrio with public figure Raffi Ahmad in the style of a pair campaign poster on his personal Instagram. On Thursday, April 18, 2024, Ahmad Muzani, the Secretary-General of the Gerindra Party, mentioned that the candidate in preparation for the Jakarta Pilkada is still under consideration. The Gerindra Party possesses several youthful figures, including Budisatrio Djiwandono and Moreno Soeprapto. “We possess a strong candidate, especially a fresh and young figure,” he said at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta. Claimed Prohibition by Jokowi, Kaesang Pangarep: That’s Mr. Zulhas’s Version of the Story Head of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, also addressed the statement that he was prohibited by President Jokowi from running in the Jakarta Pilkada. According to Kaesang, that version belongs to 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 listened to my side of the story yet?” questioned Kaesang. Upon receiving this, a number of journalists requested him to explain, but Kaesang chose to keep it to himself. “It’s a confidential,” said Kaesang before departing. Previously, Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, said that President Jokowi prohibited 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 earlier proposed that Kaesang team 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 mentioned. Although the Supreme Court (MA) has changed the age limit for regional head candidates, giving Kaesang the chance to run for the Jakarta gubernatorial election, Jokowi nevertheless prohibited it. “‘Now it’s allowed, Sir.’ I mentioned earlier, yes, then who is 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 said. 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 rumored 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 has been no internal discussion regarding 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 mentioned that whether Kaesang will run this year depends on Kaesang himself. Furthermore, the coalition parties of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) need to deliberate 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 they decide,” remarked Antoni. **2024 Pilkada Schedule** Here is the schedule for the 2024 Pilkada stages: 1.
