**Reasons PKS Nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada** The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) officially nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial and cawagub candidates for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu explained the reasons for nominating Anies and Sohibul Iman for the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election. Anies Baswedan is considered a figure who achieved significant progress while leading DKI Jakarta. According to Syaikhu, Anies’s performance has made happiness to the residents of Jakarta. “Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan excelled as governor during the 2017-2022 period with various accomplishments in different sectors of development, advancing the city and satisfaction to its residents,” said Syaikhu at the Party Leadership School Opening at Grand Sahid Jaya Hotel, Central Jakarta, on June 25, 2024. Meanwhile, Sohibul Iman, according to Syaikhu, is a scholar. He mentioned that Sohibul also has an impressive track record in government. “Mr. Sohibul Iman is a technocrat and a scholar who has served as the rector of Paramadina University. He has experience in the legislature as Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR RI) from 2013-2014 and has been PKS President from 2015-2020,” explained Syaikhu. Syaikhu stated that PKS is a cadre party with the mandate to conduct cadre and leadership regeneration. Therefore, he said, in the 2024 simultaneous Pilkada, the party will nominate its cadres as candidates for regional heads.

PKS will endeavor to the utmost to endorse its own cadres as candidates,” said Syaikhu.

**PKS Invites NasDem and PKB to Support Anies-Sohibul Iman Pair** Ahmad Syaikhu will invite other political parties (parpol) to support the Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman duo in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. According to Syaikhu, his party still lacks the seats needed to register gubernatorial and deputy gubernatorial candidates in the Jakarta Pilkada. “Therefore, we have already communicated with our coalition from the previous presidential election,” said Syaikhu. In the 2024 presidential election, PKS formed a coalition with the NasDem Party and the National Awakening Party (PKB) to nominate the number one pair Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar (AMIN). According to Syaikhu, he has communicated with NasDem Party Chairman Surya Paloh. Syaikhu stated that Surya Paloh welcomed the Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman pair positively. “Alhamdulillah, Mr. Surya Paloh also gave a positive signal for this nomination,” stated Syaikhu. Communication, Syaikhu continued, will soon be extended to other political parties, including with PKB Chairman Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin). “He (Cak Imin) is on a flight, so Insyaallah, we will talk after this. We will communicate and visit PKB too, we hope we can unite in nominating leadership in DKI Jakarta,” stated Syaikhu.

As per Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Daily Chairman of the Gerindra Party, this proposal is viewed by his faction as merely an aspiration. “Yes, the current situation is merely a discussion in the media, and we consider it just 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 determination regarding his nomination for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada will be made in August. “As I stated before, wait for the surprise in August,” remarked Kaesang at the PSI Office in Jakarta, on Friday (June 7, 2024). He hinted that there will be a surprise regarding whether he will run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The youngest son of President Jokowi asked everyone to wait patiently as the registration for the candidates for governor and deputy governor through political parties will start from August 27 to August 29, 2024. “The registration is still far off, it’s still in August, at the end of August. Wait,” he said, according to 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.” In addition to posting Budisatrio with Kaesang, Dasco also posted a photo of Budisatrio with public figure Raffi Ahmad similar to a duo campaign flyer on his personal Instagram. On Thursday, April 18, 2024, Ahmad Muzani, the General Secretary of the Gerindra Party, mentioned that the figure being prepared for the Jakarta Pilkada is still being finalized. The Gerindra Party possesses several young candidates, including Budisatrio Djiwandono and Moreno Soeprapto. “We have a strong contender, especially a fresh and young figure,” he mentioned at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta. Claimed Prohibition by Jokowi, Kaesang Pangarep: That’s Zulhas’s Version of the Story Head of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, also addressed the claim that he was prohibited by President Jokowi from running in the Jakarta Pilkada. As per Kaesang, that version is the Chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, alias Zulhas. “That’s Zulhas’s version of the story,” he mentioned. He then threw the question back to the media. “So, have you listened to my side of the story yet?” asked Kaesang. Upon hearing this, a number of journalists requested him to elaborate, but Kaesang chose to keep it to himself. “It’s a secret,” said Kaesang before leaving. Previously, Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, stated that President Jokowi prohibited his youngest son, Kaesang Pangarep, from running for the Jakarta gubernatorial election. “Earlier, I inquired the President after the meeting. ‘Sir, what about Kaesang running for Jakarta deputy governor?’ ‘Oh no,’ he said, ‘Don’t do it, Mr. Zul,'” Zulhas stated at the PAN DPP, South Jakarta, on Monday, (June 3, 2024). Zulkifli Hasan previously suggested that Kaesang pair up with Zita Anjani in the Jakarta Pilkada because he wanted Jakarta to be led by young people. “Kaesang is young, I even suggested it before, ‘Sir, I proposed 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) had altered the age limit for regional head candidates, giving Kaesang the opportunity 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 permissible, 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 Head of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, has a 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 confirmation from Kaesang on whether he will run for regional head. Kaesang has been rumored to participate in the Jakarta gubernatorial election after his poster was posted alongside Gerindra politician and Prabowo’s nephew, Budi Djiwandono. The Secretary-General of PSI, Raja Juli Antoni, stated that there hasn’t been any internal discussion concerning the youngest son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) running in the 2024 Pilkada. “No (internal discussion yet),” stated 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 discuss whether it is beneficial for Kaesang to run in the Pilkada or not. “Ask Mas Kaesang,” he mentioned. “It depends on Mas Kaesang and KIM what’s best,” remarked Antoni. **2024 Pilkada Schedule** Here is the schedule for the 2024 Pilkada stages: 1.
