The Chairman of the Regional Leadership Council (DPW) of the National Awakening Party (PKB) DKI Jakarta, Hasbiallah Ilyas, stated that his party will continue to support Anies Baswedan as the gubernatorial candidate (cagub) for Jakarta in 2024.

“PPP has gone through a prolonged conflict before; party division consumed a lot of time and yielded no positive results. Now, all party members must come together as one large family, joining forces and fighting together. Therefore, set aside potential divisions such as the issue of the congress, whether it’s an emergency congress or an expedited congress,” said Fernita on Monday. Fernita stated that the institution already has rules or mechanisms in place. Thus, a resolution cannot be made by one party alone or, in other words, ignoring the established rules. “So, if there are calls for an accelerated congress to remove the chairman, it must follow PPP’s rules or systems. The implementation of a general assembly must go through the party’s working meeting, before the national leadership conference, and before that, a daily executive board meeting to determine the working meeting or the leadership meeting,” she explained. “Recently, the IX national leadership conference, joined by 38 Regional Leadership Councils from across Indonesia, yielded a decision that the general assembly will be held in line with the AD/ART period, which is in 2025. This nullifies all issues or demands for an expedited congress,” she emphasized. Unified Lastly, Fernita called for that after the 2024 polls, the entire big family and senior members of PPP commence packaging action plans for facing the 2029 elections. “God willing|If God wills|Inshallah, by standing together, PPP will be ready to face the 2029 polls even stronger,” she concluded.

Moreover, for the Jakarta Pilkada, they have not yet reported to the Chairman of PKB, Muhaimin Iskandar, also known as Cak Imin. “It is still at the Pilkada desk level, we have not reported to Cak Imin. For several Pilkada, including Jakarta, we have not yet reported to Cak Imin,” stated. Furthermore, Huda stated that the dynamics in the Jakarta Pilkada are still very fluid, even though PKS has already nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman. “We must place everything, especially the Jakarta Pilkada, in a very fluid space. I can still say it hasn’t taken shape, not even with us. In KIM, the figures are still being pulled. This means the Jakarta Pilkada is still very fluid from all sides, from all camps. Including from the KIM camp,” Huda added.

As a party that secured a decade of seats in the 2019 vote and an additional seat in the 2024 election, PKS has a strong foundation and can put forward a single ticket for mayor and deputy mayor. Moreover, the Head of the PKS Bogor DPD, Atang Trisnanto, has been put forward as a candidate for mayor in the 2024 local election. “Of course, PKS has the capital and solid standing to choose the candidate for the mayoral office. Just wait, we are expecting guidance from the DPP. (Regarding my name being mentioned), yes, it has been noted, thank you for the support. We are certainly waiting for direction from the DPP. Whatever the entrusted task, we are ready, I must be ready,” said Atang on Sunday (24/3/2024).

**PKB Says Not Certain to Support Anies Baswedan** PKB Deputy Secretary General Syaiful Huda stated that his party is not certain to support Anies Baswedan in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. This is because PKB still has one more name being considered, namely Ida Fauziyah. “PKB has not yet decided to support Anies, we are considering two names,” said Huda, during an interview at the Parliamentary Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 26.

The survey was conducted from 1st to 7th May 2024, with 800 respondents aged at least 17 years or already married. The margin of error is approximately 3.46%, with a reliability of 95%. The method used was multi-layer random sampling. Data collection was carried out through in-person interviews using a questionnaire. ICRC is a national polling firm registered with the official association PERSEPI and listed with the KPU RI. ICRC is led by a former Indo Barometer Head from 2012-2022 and a team seasoned in conducting surveys in various regional elections in Indonesia.

Huda reminded that the Jakarta Pilkada is very fluid and nothing is fixed, including for PKS, even though it won the Jakarta legislative election but cannot nominate alone. “Nominating two figures simultaneously as both governor and deputy governor candidates is a political party’s privilege with a golden ticket, having 20 percent. We know our friends at PKS won the last legislative election but haven’t surpassed 20 percent as they only have 18 seats while 20 percent requires 22 seats,” he said. “So, in my opinion, this model of monopolizing figures for a party that does not meet and does not have a golden ticket is dangerous, it’s dangerous,” he stated.

Huda reminded that the Jakarta Pilkada is very fluid and nothing is fixed yet, including PKS, even though they are the winners of the Jakarta Legislative Election, but they cannot nominate on their own. “Nominating two figures at once as governor and deputy governor candidates, that’s in terms of political etiquette for a party that already has a golden ticket, has 20 percent. Now, we know our PKS friends did win in the last legislative election. But they haven’t exceeded 20 percent because they only have 18 seats while the 20 percent is 22 seats,” he said. “So in my opinion, this model of hoarding figures for a party that doesn’t meet and doesn’t have a golden ticket is dangerous, dangerous,” he concluded.
