Said Abdullah's Dream To Unite Ganjar-Anies, PPP Instead Believes Alternative Presidential Candidates Appear
JAKARTA - PPP Deputy General Chair Arsul Sani, responded to the input linking Ganjar Pranowo and Anies Baswedan to the 2024 presidential election.Arsul assessed that the dream of the Chairman of the PDIP DPP Said Abdullah was legitimate because until now the presidential and vice presidential candidates had not yet been final."For me, if we look at the development so far, even though the coalition has begun to form, it is not final. Perhaps it is still in the quarter-finals or semi-finals. What is clear is that it is still not final," said Arsul at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Tuesday, August 22.Therefore, he continued, changes in the composition of the coalition are still very likely. Arsul believes that new figures will emerge as alternative candidates besides Ganjar Pranowo, Anies Baswedan, and Prabowo Subianto."In fact, I am one of those people who believe, apart from the three names, alternative presidents can appear later. I am one of those people who believe," he said.However, the deputy chairman of the MPR was reluctant to guess who would become an alternative presidential candidate."Yes, we will see on the way, but I believe it is okay. That outside the three names, other figures can also appear as presidential readings," said Arsul.Previously, PDIP DPP chairman Said Abdullah imagined that if Ganjar and Anies united in the 2024 presidential election, there would be great strength. Because both of them are smart leaders who come from the same alma mater. However, he said, it was just a dream that had not become a decision."We are not in a decision, we want to just dream, what is the dream in? In our condition, we should no longer need kamprets, there is no need for the term oh Anies below, no need to count, we are not in that position," Said said at the DPR Building, Tuesday, August 22.
"That later Ganjar with anyone will be determined by Mr. Ganjar, the General Chair of the PDI-P, Mr. Hary Tanoesoedibjo, then Mr. Mardiono and the General Chair of Hanura, that's all. That's not my position to determine the person A with the B, the B with," he continued.
