Former Governor of DKI Jakarta for the 2017-2022 period Anies Baswedan responded positively to the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS)’s formal nomination of him as a Bacagub for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada.

Recount in Surabaya “We have prepared a storage facility and assigned security personnel. From our accord with the KPUD and Bawaslu, we have arranged for three locks, each held by Bawaslu, KPUD, and the police,” he said. “Thus, we assure that the election boxes are safe and that the recount process will be conducted smoothly,” he concluded. Meanwhile, Chairman of East Java KPU Aang Kunaifi highlighted that Surabaya was picked for the voting recount, considering several elements. “Namely, considering security aspects and other considerations such as the process of transitioning the KPU leadership,” said Aang Kunaifi.

**PKS Offered Deputy Governor Position with Ridwan Kamil** PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu admitted 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,” said 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.

Therefore, communication with other parties is not yet final,” he stated. 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.

On the other hand, with Sohibul Iman running, Adi also noted that PKS might be aiming to partner with Anies Baswedan. “At the same time, PKS is certainly preparing Sohibul Iman to potentially partner with Anies Baswedan. PKS is quite closely associated with Anies Baswedan. This seems to be PKS’s goal, not to lose momentum as the winner of the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta and to ensure their cadre is proposed either as governor or deputy governor,” he explained.

**Reasons PKS Nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada** The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) officially endorsed Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial 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 achieved significant progress while leading DKI Jakarta. According to Syaikhu, Anies’s performance has made happiness to the residents of Jakarta. “Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan excelled as governor during the 2017-2022 period with various accomplishments in different sectors of development, advancing the city and satisfaction to its residents,” stated 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 acted 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,” clarified Syaikhu. Syaikhu stated that PKS is a cadre party with the mandate to carry out 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 strive to the utmost to endorse its own cadres as candidates,” said Syaikhu.

Before entering politics, he continued, Sohibul Iman was known as a technocrat and Muslim scholar. He was involved in the technology sector at the Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT). “He is a blend of a skilled bureaucrat, a capable politician, and a respected intellectual in the educational field,” stated Mabruri.

**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 proposing 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 nominating their cadre to anticipate serious offers to be Ridwan Kamil’s running mate,” he explained.

“The party leaders frequently meet, but I think in the near future, there will be more specific discussions,” stated PAN Secretary General Eddy Soeparno at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday. According to him, the sooner a decision is made on the candidate to be nominated for the Jakarta Pilkada, the better. “Because the longer it takes, the closer it gets to the time we have to decide, and for us, deciding quickly is better because we have time to socialize the candidate pair,” said Eddy. He also hopes that the decision on the candidate pair from the political parties (parpol) of the Coalition for Indonesia’s Future (KIM) in Jakarta can be made in July. “Hopefully, if given a deadline, I think this is a process and political dialogue cannot be given a time limit, so we also want to propose a definitive name as soon as possible,” concluded Eddy.
