**Pairing Anies-Sohibul in the Jakarta Pilkada is a Blunder** Deputy Secretary General (Wasekjen) of the National Awakening Party (PKB), Syaiful Huda, stated that the change in stance by PKS, which initially proposed Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial candidate and then changed to deputy governor for Anies Baswedan, reflects internal confusion within PKS. "The internal confusion among PKS friends, which should have been internal PKS consumption, has been published," said Huda at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday.
If this happens, the two parties will arrange a contender for the Khofifah Indar Parawansa-Emil Dardak pair. "Perhaps we can work together with PKB in East Java, right," Eriko told the press at the parliamentary complex, Senayan, Monday. He was hopeful about the strength of PDIP and PKB in the region, as both parties hold a significant number of DPRD seats. "The winner in East Java now is PKB, and in the last period, we were the winners. So, if the current period's winner and the last period's winner come together, why not?" he said.
"The role of the media is very important in the success of the 2024 simultaneous elections, especially in providing political education and maintaining public order," said Sigit in his speech, quoted from Antara, Tuesday (June 18, 2024).
**PKB Says Not Certain to Support Anies Baswedan** PKB Deputy Secretary General Syaiful Huda stated that his party is not certain to support Anies Baswedan in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. This is because PKB still has one more name being considered, namely Ida Fauziyah. "PKB has not yet decided to support Anies, we are considering two names," stated Huda, during an interview at the Parliamentary Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 26.
Huda reminded that the Jakarta Pilkada is very fluid and nothing is fixed, including for PKS, even though it won the Jakarta legislative election but cannot nominate alone. "Nominating two figures simultaneously as both governor and deputy governor candidates is a political party's privilege with a golden ticket, having 20 percent. We know our friends at PKS won the last legislative election but haven't surpassed 20 percent as they only have 18 seats while 20 percent requires 22 seats," he stated. "So, in my opinion, this model of monopolizing figures for a party that does not meet and does not have a golden ticket is dangerous, it’s dangerous," he concluded.
Several Figures Furthermore, the Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform Minister, Anas Abdullah Azwar, is also seen as a potential candidate for East Java governor. "Then who else, Minister Abdullah Azwar Anas, former Banyuwangi Regent. If he can in Jakarta, why not in East Java?" said Sotarduga. As for the vice-governor candidate, Sotarduga said that PDI-P also has many cadres. They include Vice Chair of PDIP DPD Jatim Budi Kanang Sulistyono and Regent of Kediri Hanindhito Himawan Pramana. "For the deputy candidate in East Java, there are even more. There's Mas Kanang, Mas Dito. Many more regents or mayors there," he added.
"PKS has the Chairman of DPRD DKI. They can't take the deputy governor position too. I think Anies-Pras is ideal," he stated. Moreover, he added, the relationship between Anies Baswedan and Prasetyo has been established since Anies served as the governor of Jakarta from 2017 to 2022. Furthermore, Hasbiallah hopes that communication between PKB and PDIP can be established quickly so that the deputy governor position for Anies can be finalized.
PKB Jakarta proposes the duo of Anies Baswedan and the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta Regional House of Representatives (DPRD) as well as a politician from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), Prasetyo Edi Marsudi, for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. Besides Prasetyo Edi, Hasbiallah mentioned that Anies could also be paired with the Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Kaesang Pangarep or the Acting (Pj) Governor of DKI Jakarta, Heru Budi Hartono.
"We are committed to supporting Anies. Regarding the deputy governor candidate, we will also communicate with PDIP. It could be Anies-Prasetio Edi Marsudi, Chairman of DPRD DKI Jakarta, Kaesang Pangarep, and P Heru Budi Hartono," said Hasbiallah in a written statement, quoted on June 26, 2024. According to Hasbiallah, any party can promote their cadres as gubernatorial or deputy gubernatorial candidates in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. However, he mentioned that coalition discussions are needed to determine Anies' running mate.

"Mr. Sohibul Iman is a technocrat, also a scholar who was once the rector of Paramadina University. He has experience in the legislature as Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR RI) for the 2013-2014 period and was once the president of PKS for the 2015-2020 period," explained Syaikhu. Syaikhu stated that PKS is a cadre party that has a mandate to carry out political cadre regeneration and leadership regeneration. Therefore, he stated, in this simultaneous Pilkada 2024, the party will nominate its cadre to run as a regional head candidate. "Especially in the base areas where PKS is the winning party or has a majority of DPRD seats. PKS will strive to nominate its own cadre as a candidate," stated Syaikhu.
