Meanwhile, Esa Unggul University political communication analyst M. Jamiluddin Ritonga assesses that in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada, PKS will still form a coalition with the National Awakening Party (PKB) and the NasDem Party, which will likely nominate Anies Baswedan. Added to that, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), which is interested in nominating Anies in the Jakarta Pilkada. However, another possibility might occur if the deputy gubernatorial position for Anies is not given to PKS. It is predicted that PKS will cross over to the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM), which will nominate Ridwan Kamil. „PKS will hope to get the deputy gubernatorial position by joining KIM. If PKS is accepted by KIM, there is a possibility that Sohibul Iman will accompany Ridwan Kamil,“ said Jamil. If you beloved this post and you would like to obtain more data with regards to pilkada sumut bobby Nasution (www.merdeka.Com) kindly go to the web page. „However, this possibility is very small if Kaesang Pangarep runs in the Jakarta Pilgub. KIM would certainly prefer Kaesang over Sohibul Iman as Ridwan Kamil’s running mate,“ Jamil added. If that happens, according to Jamil, PKB and NasDem might join PDIP to nominate Anies as gubernatorial candidate, with the deputy gubernatorial candidate from PDIP. „In the Jakarta Pilgub, it seems that there will be a confrontation between two coalitions. The Change Coalition plus PDIP will nominate Anies and a PDIP cadre, while KIM is more likely to nominate Ridwan Kamil-Kaesang,“ stated Jamil. „If this happens, PKS might end up empty-handed. PKS will have the possibility of not getting anything in the 2024 Jakarta Pilgub,“ said the former Dean of FIKIM IISIP Jakarta.
Anies only smirked when he was informed of the allegations of Jokowi’s intervention. He did not want to elaborate on the matter. „All processes are still in progress, just go with the flow,“ Anies Baswedan said when approached after participating in a reunion with the DKI Jakarta Pancasila Youth MPW in Pejaten, South Jakarta, on June 19, 2024. Furthermore, Anies Baswedan said that he currently prioritizes issues related to the prosperity of Jakarta residents over other matters. „For us, the main issue is the well-being of Jakarta residents. It’s not about who will be the running mate, that’s not the point, and the process is still long, just let it be,“ Anies said. Earlier, the Chairman of the Central Board of PDI Perjuangan, Hidayat Djarot Saiful, assessed that there were signs that President Widodo would meddle again in the 2024 Regional Election. In response to Jokowi’s Intention to Continue Social Assistance Distribution Ahead of Pilkada This was concerning President Jokowi’s intention to prolong handing out social aid in the form of rice until December 2024. „We not only sense interference but observe it distinctly and openly, in Javanese it’s cetho welo-welo,“ said Djarot Saiful Hidayat at the PDIP DPP Office, Jalan Diponegoro, Jakarta, on Thursday (16/5/2024). „Meaning, the involvement is very clear, very visible. It’s very obvious,“ he added. Djarot highlighted that the prolongation of social assistance until December constitutes an overreach. PDI-P Asks Election Commission and Supervisory Body to Address the Issue Therefore, PDIP asked the Election Commission (KPU) and the Electoral Supervisory Agency to investigate these evidences. Hidayat hopes that the abuse of authority by President Jokowi, which occurred during the 2024 Presidential race, will not be seen again in the 2024 local elections. „We really ask the election organizers, to carefully oversee. Including the media and the youth. Especially since the bansos will be continued until December,“ he stressed.
„We are not conducting an eligibility or proper test; we already know Mr. Anies‘ quality. He has been a presidential candidate,“ said Ahmad Syaikhu at the PKS Central Executive Board, Jakarta, quoted Wednesday (June 19, 2024).
NasDem Party General Chairman Surya Paloh mentioned that Anies Baswedan still has the highest electability and is likely to win in the Jakarta Pilkada. „From what I gather from various sources, Anies Baswedan currently dominates all survey scores, ranking number one. I think it’s exhausting for anyone to face him in Jakarta,“ stated Surya Paloh at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Monday, June 24, 2024. Even compared to NasDem Party Treasurer Ahmad Sahroni, Anies’s electability is still much higher. Thus, Surya Paloh does not want to risk forcing his cadre to run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. „NasDem does not prioritize candidacy issues solely from the cadre aspect,“ said Paloh. „Sahroni may have the capability, we believe that, but his electability in the Jakarta arena needs careful consideration,“ he added.
**PKS Offered Deputy Governor Position with Ridwan Kamil** PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu revealed that he received an offer for the deputy gubernatorial position to accompany Ridwan Kamil (RK) in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The offer came from the Indonesian Forward Coalition (KIM) supporting Prabowo-Gibran in the 2024 Presidential Election. „There is that offer, which is why we are analyzing and considering what makes the most sense,“ stated Syaikhu during an interview at the PKS DPP office, Jakarta, on Tuesday. However, regarding who PKS will support, Syaikhu said it is not yet final. He mentioned that communication with other parties for the Jakarta Pilkada is still ongoing. „We are continuously communicating to decide who will support Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan along with other parties. Therefore, communication with other parties is not yet final,“ he said. Syaikhu mentioned that communication is being conducted with many parties, not just KIM. Intensive communication continues with their coalition in the 2024 Presidential Election, namely the Change Coalition.
