Next Week Megawati Will Have A Dialogue With Other Parties To Discuss Ganjar Pranowo's Presidential Candidate

Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto said PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri will communicate with other parties next week.

The discussion on the nomination of Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo in the 2024 presidential election will be held at the meeting.

"Next week there will be a meeting between Mrs. Megawati Soekarnoputri and the PDIP ranks and other party ranks. More intense dialogues will be held to support Mr. Ganjar," Hasto told reporters at the Lemhanas building, Central Jakarta, Saturday, May 20.

Hasto has not detailed who the party figures Megawati will meet. He only said that the meeting was usually initiated by political communication from party ranks.

It is certain that every party supporting President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) will have the same opportunity to discuss political cooperation. Except, the NasDem Party, which has already supported former DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan.

"PDIP has very strong capital, namely the cooperation of political parties that currently carry the government of Pak Jokowi-Kiai Haji Ma'ruf Amin except for the NasDem Party," he said.

"So, the cooperation room for the opening of communication, dialogue is carried out, and later there will be a reduction after these parties complete their responsibilities," continued Hasto.

Previously, Chairman of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin said he would meet with PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri in the near future. It is believed that the meeting will be special.

"There are many (special ones, red). Mrs. Mega must be special," Cak Imin told reporters in Jakarta, Saturday, May 20.

In this meeting, Cak Imin ensured that much would be discussed. Including, matters related to the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres) such as political cooperation.

"Certainly (related to 2024, ed). Mrs. Mega as president (we, red) sowani (visit). And surely we get a lot of input from him," said the Deputy Speaker of the Indonesian House of Representatives.
