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.

In a considerable court hearing, the lawful group standing for Anies Baswedan and Muhaimin Iskandar, referred to as Team Legal National Anies-Muhaimin (THN AMIN), led by Ari Yusuf Amin, set out a series of accusations against President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). These accusations suggest an attempt by Head of state Jokowi to affect the outcome of the 2024 governmental and vice-presidential political elections, aiming to extend his power. Right here’s a break down of the bottom lines raised throughout the hearing:

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 stated. “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 concluded.

**Puan Says PDIP Considers Nominating Anies Baswedan in Jakarta Pilkada** The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) is considering the name Anies Baswedan to be nominated in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The decision to consider nominating the former presidential candidate as Jakarta’s gubernatorial candidate came after PDIP DPP Chairperson Said Abdullah met with PKB General Chair Muhaimin Iskandar, also known as Cak Imin, to discuss cooperation in the Jakarta Pilkada. “The existing names will be reviewed later. All names are considered,” said PDIP DPP Chairperson Puan Maharani at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 25, 2024. Besides the Jakarta Pilkada, Puan also admitted they are considering figures for the East Java Pilkada. “We communicate all names and also try to simulate them because each region has its own peculiarities. So all names need to be considered,” she stated.

Previously, PDIP DPP Chairperson Said Abdullah mentioned that he had visited Cak Imin’s residence to discuss cooperation in the Jakarta Pilkada. Said mentioned that PKB is ready to nominate Anies Baswedan in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. “We visited the PKB General Chair’s house, I remember it was after Friday prayers on May 30 before going to Mecca. We talked heart-to-heart, building communication among elites, sharing views,” Said clarified. During the meeting, Said admitted, PKB has a strong opportunity to nominate Anies in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. “As far as I know from PKB, if I’m not mistaken, they are ready to nominate Anies Rasyid Baswedan,” he stated. Said mentioned that the meeting’s results with Cak Imin had been reported to PDIP Secretary-General Hasto Kristiyanto and PDIP DPP Chairperson Puan Maharani.

He said he would also report the view to Chairperson Megawati Soekarnoputri. “Not necessarily with PDIP, we share views, not seeking agreement. My task is to report to Mbak Puan and Mr. Secretary-General,” said Said. “Maybe later there will be a meeting with the Chairperson to discuss the results of every lobby or mutual visits among elites,” he continued.

Irawan mentioned that the survey results found the public reception of regent hopefuls for Jember. The acceptance level of Hendy is only 48.7 percent, below 50 percent, while ex-regent Faida has an reception of 78.6 percent. Meanwhile, Fawait has an approval rating of 53 percent, and other candidates such as Wajads, Sudiyono, and Supaat all have acceptance levels below 50 percent. “From the JJI survey, the voter preference (Top of Mind) of F. Faida as a candidate for regent for Jember is in the top position with 37.7 percent. In second place is Siswanto with an electability of 20.7 percent, followed by Muhammad Fawait with an voter preference of 17.7 percent,” he explained. Other figures, like Wajads, have 4.6 percent, and Hadi Supaat has 3.6 percent, with other candidates below 2 percent.

The results indicate that three individuals are contending in the 2024 Jember election: Faida, who served as Regent from 2016-2021, Muhammad Fawait from the East Java DPRD, and Hendy Siswanto, the incumbent Regent of Jember. “The findings indicate that Siswanto and Faida are very well-known by the people of Jember, with awareness rates exceeding 80 percent. Faida is known by 82.7 percent of the people, Hendy Siswanto has 78.7 percent recognition, and Muhammad Fawait has a 65.7 percent awareness rate. Other individuals, such as Jaddin Wajads, Education Head Achmad Sudiyono, and Hadi Supaat of PDI Perjuangan, have recognition levels below 40 percent,” said Irawan Agusta in a press release on Saturday (15/6/2024).

Kaka Suminta emphasized that to prevent any allegations of lobbying by prospective regent and deputy regent pairs regarding administrative verification, the central KPU must step in. “There needs to be supervision from the central KPU,” stated Kaka. He added that to avert any clandestine attempts at committing fraud during administrative verification, the central KPU should enforce strict oversight. “If pairs do not pass administrative verification, they should not be given any leeway that could damage democracy,” he said.
