Secretary General of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Eddy Soeparno, stated that the chairpersons of the Coalition for Indonesia’s Future (Koalisi Indonesia Maju) will hold a meeting soon to discuss the Regional Head Elections (Pemilihan Kepala Daerah), especially in Jakarta.

Based on General Election Commission Regulation Number 8 of 2022 on the Formation and Working Procedures of Adhoc Election Organizers for the Election of Governors and Deputy Governors, Regents and Deputy Regents, and Mayors and Deputy Mayors, PPS is a committee formed by the Regency/City KPU to conduct elections at the village/sub-district level or other names

The event was enlivened by performances from the music group “Glidcoustic” and singer Happy Asmara, who entertained thousands of attendees. East Java KPU Chairman Aang Kunaifi invited the community and all stakeholders to join in making the simultaneous regional elections in East Java on November 27, 2024, a success. “We want to emphasize that no matter the conditions or choices in East Java, it is up to the people. The hope is that the regional elections in East Java can be conducted in a joyful manner, resulting in leaders who can bring progress to East Java,” he said, Tuesday night (4/6/2024).

“The party leaders frequently meet, but I think in the near future, there will be more specific discussions,” stated PAN Secretary General Eddy Soeparno at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday. According to him, the sooner a decision is made on the candidate to be nominated for the Jakarta Pilkada, the better. “Because the longer it takes, the closer it gets to the time we have to decide, and for us, deciding quickly is better because we have time to socialize the candidate pair,” said Eddy. He also hopes that the decision on the candidate pair from the political parties (parpol) of the Coalition for Indonesia’s Future (KIM) in Jakarta can be made in July. “Hopefully, if given a deadline, I think this is a process and political dialogue cannot be given a time limit, so we also want to propose a definitive name as soon as possible,” said Eddy.

Acting Governor of East Java (Jatim) Adhy Karyono assured the public that the 2024 Regional Election, which will be held simultaneously on November 27, will be entertaining. “According to the theme of tonight’s event, which is ‘Seneng Bareng’ (Happy Together), the organizers and the public as participants in the election should embrace it with shared joy,” he stated.

“We are committed to supporting Anies. Regarding the deputy governor candidate, we will also communicate with PDIP. It could be Anies-Prasetio Edi Marsudi, Chairman of DPRD DKI Jakarta, Kaesang Pangarep, and P Heru Budi Hartono,” said Hasbiallah in a written statement, quoted on Wednesday. According to Hasbiallah, any party can promote their cadres as gubernatorial or deputy gubernatorial candidates in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. However, he mentioned that coalition discussions are needed to determine Anies’ running mate.

“So, if PKS friends mention the offer to be Mr. Ridwan Kamil’s deputy governor, it might be from individual senior political party members of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition. It has not yet become an official offer,” said Habiburokhman to reporters, Wednesday (June 19, 2024) .

“The PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) in a meeting on June 20, 2024 decided to endorse Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan as the prospective governor candidate and Mr. Sohibul Iman as the prospective deputy governor candidate,” stated Syaikhu. He clarified that the PKS Central Executive Board’s (DPP) decision to nominate Anies and Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada was based on suggestions from the PKS Jakarta Regional Executive Board (DPW). “I have received a letter from the Jakarta DPW structure that has proposed the Jakarta governor candidate to the DPP PKS, followed by the Jakarta deputy governor candidate to the DPP PKS. 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,” said Syaikhu.

Previously, Deputy Chairman of the Gerindra Party, Habiburokhman, assessed that the Anies-Muhaimin candidate pair nominated by PKS is also not yet certain to run in the Jakarta Pilkada. “Actually, the PKS declaration yesterday has not met the quota for candidacy, so we do not yet count Anies and Sohibul as definitive candidates,” said Habiburokhman at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday.

**PKS Officially Nominates Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada** Previously, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) officially endorsed Anies Baswedan and Sohibul Imam as the prospective governor (cagub) and deputy governor (cawagub) candidates to run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. This was announced by PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu in his speech at the Party Leadership School titled ‘Continuing to Defend the People’ at the Grand Sahid Hotel, Central Jakarta, on June 25, 2024.
