Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, also known as Ahok, as governor and deputy governor candidates in the Jakarta Pilkada. Hasto stated that his party welcomes the nation’s best talents.

This decision is motivated by his commitment to present a different choice, presenting a different vision and experience to the citizens of Banten, beyond the long-standing ruling dynasty in the region. The leadership of Arief Wismansyah in Tangerang has been recognized for innovation in city management and comprehensive infrastructure improvements, creating a strong foundation to advance Banten. In this context, he is dedicated to advocating for social justice, long-term development, and balanced growth throughout Banten. Arief expressed his preparedness to face the challenges of the Banten election with a vision aimed at positive progress and improvements for all societal layers. He revealed that his decision to run was initially not planned, but the encouragement from the community and his family made him reconsider. He noted that a meeting with Vice President Ma’ruf Amin significantly affected his decision to run. “I was called by Ma’ruf Amin, and we had a meeting. He inquired, 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 agreed with him. Eventually, on Monday afternoon, I decided to run,” Arief said when met in the Karawaci region of Tangerang City, Sunday. Arief also conveyed his views on the prevailing political dynasty in Banten, noting the split in the community related to this dominance. Nevertheless, he is optimistic about running with renowned contenders in the region. “I hope to collaborate with the Banten community to build together, including with the existing dynasties,” he added. Arief emphasized his preparedness to work with various parties for the development of Banten, without compromising the interests of the people. “Whatever the outcome, I hope the next leadership can deliver the best for Banten,” he concluded. With this step, Arief Rachadiono Wismansyah asks the people of Banten to support a shared vision in progressing the region through the upcoming election.

**PKS Invites NasDem and PKB to Support Anies-Sohibul Iman Pair** Ahmad Syaikhu will ask 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,” stated Syaikhu. In the 2024 presidential election, PKS joined 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. “Praise be to God, Mr. Surya Paloh also gave a positive signal for this nomination,” explained Syaikhu. Communication, Syaikhu continued, will soon be continued to other political parties, including with PKB Chairman Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin). “He (Cak Imin) is on a flight, so God willing, we will talk after this. We will talk and visit PKB too, we hope we can unite in endorsing leadership in DKI Jakarta,” stated Syaikhu.

Sudirman mentioned two important requirements that Sohibul Iman can fulfill to lead Jakarta. First, Sohibul is considered likely to focus on managing the residents. “Second, he will easily establish cooperation with the future government due to his flexibility in political interactions so far,” said Sudirman.

“Whether through the civil service, retired military and police, socio-cultural groups, professional groups such as doctors, cultural figures, engineers, agricultural experts, and all other professionals can join PDIP,” said Hasto.

Additionally, Sudirman said Sohibul Iman also has extensive experience in politics. Sohibul Iman was elected three times as a member of the DPR in 2009-2014, 2014-2019, and 2024-2029 periods. He also served as Deputy Speaker of the DPR RI.

Sudirman comprehends the DPP PKS decision to support an internal cadre. According to Sudirman, Sohibul Iman is the best cadre who has also led PKS. Sohibul, Wibi continued, has proven successful in increasing PKS’s votes in Jakarta and has navigated through difficult times. He successfully increased PKS’s seats in parliament from 40 seats in 2014 to 50 seats in the 2019 election period.

“In the Central Java Pilkada, from the responses of 1,688 respondents, Hendrar Prihadi was chosen by 21.4%, and Sudaryono was chosen by 20.1%,” said TBRC Executive Director Johanes Romeo in a written statement received, Friday (May 3, 2024)

“His leadership capacity is also proven. If an understanding of field issues is needed, friends and cadres in the PKS faction in the DKI DPRD will be good sources and inputs, given their daily tasks in legislation, budgeting, and oversight in Jakarta Province,” said Sudirman in a written statement, as quoted on Tuesday (25/6/2024).
