Head of PKB, Johan Daniel, was positive about the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP)’s intent in working together for the 2024 Jakarta Gubernatorial Election (Pilgub).

**Anticipate Offers for PKS** Adi also sees this as PKS’s effort to anticipate offers from the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM), which is serious about nominating Ridwan Kamil for Jakarta. “At the same time, PKS is a political party highly sought after by other contestants to be their vice-candidate. For example, there was an offer from the KIM camp for PKS to be Ridwan Kamil’s running mate. In this context, PKS is deliberately proposing their cadre to anticipate serious offers to be Ridwan Kamil’s running mate,” he said.

Moreover, for the Jakarta Pilkada, they have not yet reported to the Chairman of PKB, Muhaimin Iskandar, also known as Cak Imin. “It is still at the Pilkada desk level, we have not reported to Cak Imin. For several Pilkada, including Jakarta, we have not yet reported to Cak Imin,” he said. Furthermore, Huda emphasized that the dynamics in the Jakarta Pilkada are still very fluid, even though PKS has already nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman. “We must place everything, especially the Jakarta Pilkada, in a very fluid space. I can still say it hasn’t taken shape, not even with us. In KIM, the figures are still being pulled. This means the Jakarta Pilkada is still very fluid from all sides, from all camps. Including from the KIM camp,” Huda added.

Additionally, he mentioned that the party also considered various inputs from figures, clerics, religious leaders, cross-sect leaders, scholars, and the public in Jakarta. “The main aspects considered were candidates with good leadership experience in both the executive and legislative branches, a proven track record, credibility, capacity, and a high probability of winning,” he stated. Furthermore, Syaikhu believes that the Anies-Sohibul Iman pair is a good match. According to Syaikhu, they complement each other for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. “Some have already coined the acronym AMAN (Anies-Sohibul Iman). Whatever the name, Anies-Sohibul Iman has the qualifications to complement each other and lead DKI Jakarta,” said Syaikhu.

**KPU DKI Prepares for Two-Round Jakarta Pilkada** The DKI Jakarta General Election Commission (KPU) is preparing for the stages or second round of the 2024 Jakarta Pilgub. Especially since the two-round Pilgub is unique to Jakarta as a special region. This was conveyed by DKI Jakarta KPU Chairman Wahyu Dinata at the Launch of the Stages, Jingle, and Mascot for the 2024 Jakarta Pilgub at the South Side of the National Monument (Monas), Central Jakarta, on Saturday night (May 25, 2024). The event was also attended by KPU RI Commissioner Betty Epsilon Idroos, August Mellaz, Head of the Jakarta National Unity and Political Agency (Kesbangpol) Taufan Bakri, and members of the Regional Leadership Coordination Forum (Forkopimda). “The DKI Jakarta KPU has also planned the second stage, which is only implemented in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta as mandated by Law Number 2 of 2024 concerning the Special Region of Jakarta,” stated Wahyu.

This was shared by Fahmi at the Readiness Roll Call of Voter Data Update Officers (Pantarlih) for the Jakarta gubernatorial election (Pilgub) at the Jakarta International Velodrome, Rawamangun, East Jakarta, on Monday. “Yes, there has been an increase compared to the 2024 General Election. In the 2024 General Election, our number of voters was 8,252,897,” said Fahmi.

This announcement was made by PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu in his speech at the Party Leadership School titled ‘Continuing to Defend the People’ at the Grand Sahid Hotel, Central Jakarta, on June 25, 2024. “The PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) in its meeting on Thursday, June 20, 2024, has decided to endorse Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan as the prospective governor and Mr. Sohibul Iman as the prospective deputy governor,” stated Syaikhu. He explained that the decision by the PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) to endorse Anies and Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilgub was based on the proposal from the PKS DKI Jakarta Regional Executive Board (DPW). “I have received a letter from the DPW DKI Jakarta structure that has nominated the DKI gubernatorial candidate to the DPP PKS, followed by the DKI deputy gubernatorial candidate to the DPP PKS, requesting approval and establishment of Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan and Mr. Mohammad Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial and deputy gubernatorial candidates,” stated Syaikhu.

Huda reminded that the Jakarta Pilkada is very fluid and nothing is fixed yet, including PKS, even though they are the winners of the Jakarta Legislative Election, but they cannot nominate on their own. “Nominating two figures at once as governor and deputy governor candidates, that’s in terms of political etiquette for a party that already has a golden ticket, has 20 percent. Now, we know our PKS friends did win in the last legislative election. But they haven’t exceeded 20 percent because they only have 18 seats while the 20 percent is 22 seats,” stated. “So in my opinion, this model of hoarding figures for a party that doesn’t meet and doesn’t have a golden ticket is dangerous, dangerous,” he said.
