The allegations and monitorings presented by Baswedan require a severe examination of the electoral process in Indonesia. It comes to be necessary to attend to these problems promptly to maintain the honesty of the autonomous system.

According to Irman, the DP4 data provided to the KPU is integrated with the voter identification system using fingerprints and iris scans. Thus, voter identities can be more assured, without duplicate identities. “The updated results will be further processed into the Provisional Voter List (DPS), which will eventually become the Final Voter List (DPT),” he said. He mentioned that the mechanism makes it easier if voter data is updated at any time. The DP4 data provided to the KPU is confirmed to be ready to be used as voter data for the simultaneous regional elections in December 2015. “Population data is dynamic; some pass away, some move, some retire from the military/police,” concluded Irman.

Director General of Population and Civil Registration (Dukcapil) Irman stated that in updating voter data for the simultaneous regional elections starting at the end of 2015, a one-door system is used. This ensures that there are no duplicate voter data. “The guarantee is that we manage the population database with an online system. Therefore, duplicate data, God willing, will no longer exist,” said Irman after the handover of the Potential Voter Population Data (DP4) at the Ministry of Home Affairs building in Jakarta, Wednesday, June 3, 2015.

In this context, he is dedicated to promoting social equity, sustainable growth, and fair development throughout Banten. Arief expressed his preparedness to face the challenges of the Pilkada in Banten with a vision focused on positive change and improvements for all societal layers. He shared that his decision to run was initially unexpected, but the support from the community and his family made him reconsider. He noted that a meeting with VP Ma’ruf Amin significantly impacted his decision to run. “I was asked by Ma’ruf Amin, and we had a meeting. He asked, are you really running, Mr. Arief? If you want to run, you have to win; if you’re not sure you can win, don’t run, he said. I believed he was correct. Eventually, on Monday afternoon, I decided to run,” Arief said when interviewed in the Karawaci region of Tangerang City, June 23, 2024. Arief also shared his views on the dominant political dynasty in Banten, noting the division in the community related to this dominance. Nevertheless, he is confident about contending with renowned contenders in the region. “I hope to collaborate with the people of Banten to build together, including with the existing dynasties,” he added. Arief stressed his willingness to work with various parties for the progress of Banten, without neglecting the interests of the people. “Whatever the outcome, I hope the next leadership can provide the best for Banten,” he concluded.

Ray Rangkuti, admitted surprise at PKS’s resigned move. “I am surprised by PKS. They were very quick. Even before the banana leaf turned yellow, they had already reversed their policy,” stated Ray in a written statement on June 26, 2024. According to Ray, this move by PKS is a sign of PKS’s weakness in negotiation and lobbying. At least, PKS has lost the opportunity twice to place their cadre in the gubernatorial position. “PKS’s weakness is their negotiation and lobbying ability. In the Jakarta political scene, PKS has accepted negotiation defeats at least twice. First, when Mardani Ali Sera was dropped as a deputy gubernatorial candidate and when they lost the right to get the gubernatorial position when Sandiaga ran as a vice-presidential candidate,” clarified Ray.

According to Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Chairman of the Daily Board of the Gerindra Party, this idea is considered by his faction as merely an aspiration. “Yes, what we have is just a discussion in the media, and we consider it only an aspiration and it has not reached the level of party discussions within the Advanced Indonesia Coalition,” said Dasco at Rumah Kertanegara, South Jakarta, on Friday, (June 7, 2024). Meanwhile, Kaesang mentioned that the decision regarding his nomination for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada will be made in August. “As I have said before, wait for the surprise in August,” remarked Kaesang at the PSI Office in Jakarta, on Friday (June 7, 2024). He hinted that there is a surprise about whether he will run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The youngest son of President Jokowi asked everyone to be patient as the registration for the candidates for governor and deputy governor via political parties will begin from August 27 to August 29, 2024. “The registration is still far off, it is still in August, at the end of August. Be patient,” he stated, as quoted by 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 election flyer on his personal Instagram. On Thursday, April 18, 2024, Ahmad Muzani, the General Secretary of the Gerindra Party, stated that the candidate in preparation for the Jakarta Pilkada is still under consideration. The Gerindra Party possesses several youthful candidates, including Budisatrio Djiwandono and Moreno Soeprapto. “We have a strong contender, preferably a fresh and young figure,” he said at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta. Alleged 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 statement that he was forbidden by President Jokowi from running in the Jakarta Pilkada. According to Kaesang, that story belongs to 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 heard my side of the story yet?” asked Kaesang. Upon hearing this, a number of journalists asked him to elaborate, but Kaesang opted to decline. “It’s a confidential,” concluded Kaesang before leaving. Previously, the Chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, stated that President Jokowi forbade his youngest son, Kaesang Pangarep, from running for the Jakarta gubernatorial election. “Earlier, I asked 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 said at the PAN DPP, South Jakarta, on Monday, (June 3, 2024). Zulhas previously suggested that Kaesang pair up with Zita Anjani in the Jakarta Pilkada because he desired 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 changed the age limit for regional head candidates, providing Kaesang the chance to run for the Jakarta gubernatorial election, Jokowi still prohibited it. “‘Now it’s allowed, Sir.’ I mentioned earlier, yes, then who was the one who challenged it, right. Now it’s allowed, it was challenged. ‘Don’t do it, Mr. Zul,’ that’s about it,” he concluded. PSI Secretary-General Says No Internal Discussion Yet About Kaesang Running for 2024 Pilkada The Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, is the potential to run as a gubernatorial candidate after the Supreme Court (MA) issued a regulation concerning the age of regional head candidates. However, there has been no decision from Kaesang on whether he will run for regional head. Kaesang has been rumored to participate in the Jakarta gubernatorial election after his poster appeared alongside Gerindra politician and Prabowo’s nephew, Budi Djiwandono. The Secretary-General of PSI, Raja Juli Antoni, revealed that there has been no internal discussion regarding the youngest son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) running in the 2024 Pilkada. “No (internal discussion yet),” said Antoni at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, on Monday (June 3, 2024). Antoni stated 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.
