The General Election Commission (KPU) of Indonesia has announced the schedule for the stages of the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Head Elections (Pilkada) to be held in 37 provinces in Indonesia. This election will not take place in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) because DIY has special regulations that do not involve elections for the appointment of the governor and deputy governor. It is known that Yogyakarta has special regulations that are only possessed by a few other regions in Indonesia. This is stipulated in Law Number 13 of 2012 concerning the Special Status of the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY).

**PKS Officially Nominates Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada** Previously, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) officially endorsed Anies Baswedan and Sohibul Imam as the prospective governor (cagub) and deputy governor (cawagub) candidates to run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. This was announced 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.

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.

This 2024 Pilkada involves 508 regencies/cities, making it one of the largest democratic events in Indonesia. The Chairman of the KPU, Hasyim Asy’ari, emphasized the importance of conducting elections in accordance with the prevailing laws and ethical codes. In its implementation, all KPU levels at the provincial and regency/city levels must always coordinate with local governments, law enforcement, and related parties to ensure the Pilkada runs smoothly.

nThe officials present included Acting Director General of Political and Public Administration Togap Simangunsong, Deputy Coordinator for Domestic Political Affairs at the Coordinating Ministry for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs Major General TNI Heri Wiranto, Assistant Deputy for Election and Political Party Management Brigadier General TNI Haryadi, Assistant Intelligence TNI Djaka Budhi Utama, Deputy Director of National Security Agency Police, Member of DKPP I Dewa Kade Wiarsa, Secretary of DIY, and Klaten Regent Sri Mulyani

“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).

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.

Syaikhu explained that the decision of the PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) to nominate Anies and Sohibul Iman for If you loved this article so you would like to obtain more info concerning Medical professional search kindly visit the web site. the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election was based on suggestions from the PKS Jakarta Regional Leadership Council (DPW).

“God willing, we are ready to compete supportively and fairly, God willing,” he said. Sohibul believes that whoever the gubernatorial and vice-gubernatorial candidates nominated by political parties (parpol) are, the goal is for the good of Jakarta.

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.

**Listening to Various Figures** Additionally, he mentioned that the party also listened to various inputs from figures, ulama, habaib, cross-religious leaders, scholars, and the people of Jakarta. “The main considerations are candidates with good leadership experience in both the executive and legislative branches, a proven track record, credibility, capacity, and a high probability to win,” he stated. Furthermore, Syaikhu believes that the Anies-Sohibul Iman pair is a good duet. According to Syaikhu, they complement each other for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. “Some have already thought of the abbreviation AMAN (Anies-Sohibul Iman), but whatever the name, they have the necessary qualifications, are compatible, and can complement each other to lead Jakarta,” said Syaikhu.

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