Spokesperson for the Prosperous Justice Party (Partai Keadilan Sejahtera), Ahmad Mabruri, announced that the PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) has nominated PKS Deputy Chair of the Syuro Council Mohamad Sohibul Iman as the prospective gubernatorial candidate for the Special Capital Region of Jakarta.

Previously, PDIP DPP Chairperson Mr. Sotarduga suggested that if their party collaborates with PKB to support Anies Baswedan in the Jakarta Pilkada, they propose the gubernatorial seat in East Java to PDIP. “For example, in Jakarta, if PKB is the gubernatorial candidate, can PDIP be the gubernatorial candidate in East Java? Of course, it’s not a trade, but that’s what cooperation means, we can’t win everything on our own, we must work together,” stated Eriko at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 25, 2024.

nBased on the KPU Decision Number 476 of 2024, the selection process for PPS members in the 2024 Regional Election began on May 2, 2024 . This announcement was made by the General Election Commission (KPU) or the Independent Election Commission (KIP) at the Regency/Municipal level in Indonesia

“The proposal from Eriko is intriguing,” stated Huda at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday. According to Huda, the possibility of PKB forming a coalition with PDIP in Jakarta is open if PDIP is willing to take the deputy governor for Anies and if PKS fails to find a coalition partner in the Jakarta Pilkada. If you have any type of concerns pertaining to where and just how to make use of rekomendasi partai pilkada 2024, you can call us at our webpage. “It is possible that PKB, with PDIP as the deputy, could happen if PKS fails to find a coalition partner,” explained Huda.

This is because the chances of winning are higher as the election will not go to two rounds. “Yes, actually, two or three coalitions are interesting. For us, two coalitions are more attractive; our chances of winning are higher. If there are three coalitions, it could go to two rounds, which we are also considering,” stated Pipin at the Sahid Hotel, Jakarta, on Monday. Pipin mentioned that the possibility of forming a new coalition for the Jakarta Pilgub is still open. However, this must be discussed with other political parties (parties). “All these possibilities exist, and we are just one party among many, so we need to talk together,” he stated.

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,” concluded Mabruri.

**Reasons PKS Nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada** The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) formally nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial and deputy gubernatorial candidates for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu explained the reasons for nominating Anies and Sohibul Iman for the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election. Anies Baswedan is considered a leader who made significant progress while leading DKI Jakarta. According to Syaikhu, Anies’s performance has brought happiness to the residents of Jakarta. “Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan succeeded as governor during the 2017-2022 period with various achievements in different sectors of development, advancing the city and bringing happiness to its residents,” stated Syaikhu at the Party Leadership School Opening at Grand Sahid Jaya Hotel, Central Jakarta, on June 25, 2024. 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 served as the rector of Paramadina University. He has served in the legislature as Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR RI) from 2013-2014 and has been PKS President from 2015-2020,” explained Syaikhu. Syaikhu said that PKS is a cadre party with the mandate to conduct 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 endeavor to the utmost to endorse its own cadres as candidates,” said Syaikhu.

**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. “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.
