“I have received a letter from the DPW DKI Jakarta structure that proposed the DKI gubernatorial candidate to the PKS DPP, followed by the DKI vice-gubernatorial candidate to the PKS DPP. Among the letters, there was a request to endorse, approve, and designate Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan and Mr. Mohammad Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial and vice-gubernatorial candidates for DKI,” said Syaikhu.

The General Election Commission of Indonesia (KPU RI) conducted an evaluation of the 2024 Election with Commission II of the DPR RI. This aims to ensure that the upcoming Regional Elections in November run more smoothly. One of the plans to be evaluated is the number of voters at each Polling Station (TPS). It is known that in the 2024 Election, the maximum number of voters per TPS was 300. Therefore, to be more efficient, the KPU plans to double this number.

**Reasons PKS Nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada** The Prosperous Justice Party (Partai Keadilan Sejahtera) officially nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman as the cagub and deputy gubernatorial candidates for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu explained the reasons for endorsing Anies and Sohibul Iman for the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election. Anies Baswedan is considered a leader who made significant progress while leading DKI Jakarta. According to Syaikhu, Anies’s performance has brought happiness to the residents of Jakarta. “Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan excelled as governor during the 2017-2022 period with various achievements in different sectors of development, advancing the city and bringing happiness to its residents,” said Syaikhu at the Party Leadership School Opening at Grand Sahid Jaya Hotel, Central Jakarta, on Tuesday. 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 said 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. “Especially in areas where PKS is the winning party or has a majority of seats in the DPRD. PKS will endeavor to the utmost to nominate its own cadres as candidates,” stated Syaikhu.

Anies, who is currently overseas, shared his gratitude through a post on his personal Instagram page @aniesbaswedan on Wednesday. “I am currently traveling, so please allow me to share this recording to express my gratitude and appreciation for PKS’s decision today as announced by Mr. PKS President,” said Anies. Anies stated that he will communicate with PKS leaders to discuss further steps and follow-up actions for the Jakarta gubernatorial election (Pilgub) once he returns to the homeland. “The same goes for the other party leaders. We have struggled together in Jakarta as well as at the national level with PKS, Insyaallah, we will continue to struggle together in the future,” stated Anies. Anies believes that besides PKB and PKS, other political parties (parpol) will also support his run in the Jakarta Pilkada. He is determined to return Jakarta to a developed city. “Alhamdulillah, after PKB and PKS, God willing, other parties will also struggle together to restore Jakarta to a modern city with content citizens. Greetings to the entire PKS family,” stated Anies. It is known that Anies is currently on vacation in Spain when PKS formally announced his nomination for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The moment in Spain was seen from Anies’s social media post showing him visiting the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, the capital of Spain. Anies is scheduled to be abroad for two weeks.

For information, the registration of regional head candidate pairs will be open from August 27-29, 2024.

“God willing, we are ready to compete supportively and fairly, God willing,” he said. Sohibul believes that whoever the gubernatorial and vice-gubernatorial candidates nominated by political parties (parpol) are, the goal is for the good of Jakarta.

Hasyim explained that the related rules have been outlined in the draft KPU regulations (RPKPU) Article 19. He hopes that this clarification will provide clarity to the public. “So it’s clear which path to take, whether to become a regional head candidate or continue as a member of the DPR, DPD,” said Hasyim. If they still want to participate in the 2024 Pilkada, Hasyim asks the elected candidates in the 2024 Election to submit their resignation letters to the KPU no later than 5 days after being determined as regional head candidates. “A certificate stating that the resignation letter is being processed by the relevant KPU official should be submitted,” Hasyim emphasized.
