JAKARTA - General Chair Prabowo Subianto opened his voice regarding the determination of the candidate for vice president (cawapres) who will later accompany him as a presidential candidate (candidate) in the 2024 elections. Now, the Golkar Party and PAN have been close to the Gerindra Party coalition and have stated their support for Prabowo to become a presidential candidate. However, Prabowo said, the four parties will still discuss who the vice presidential figures can be agreed. "Talking about the vice presidential candidate, we have agreed that we will continue to discuss, discuss, discuss, find the best candidates that these four parties can receive," Prabowo said at the Proclamation, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Sunday, August 13. Meanwhile, Golkar Party Chairman Airlangga Hartarto also said that these four parties will continue to establish communication to finalize coalitions to the determination of Prabowo's vice presidential candidate. "I am proud that 4 parties are united and in our attitude that we, the 4 general chairmen of these parties, are easy to communicate. Also have the same vision and mission. Of course, the journey ahead is still there and many things we need to talk about," said Airbowo. The party supports Prabowo because the Minister of Defense had once been a Golkar cadre, before finally establishing Gerindra Party. This was conveyed by Airlangga after the declaration of support for Golkar and PAN to Prabowo as a presidential candidate. "Why has Golkar Party formed a United Indonesia Coalition (KIB) with the National Mandate Party (PAN) and the United Development Party (PPP)? No other than because Mr. General, Mr. Prabowo Subianto was born from the womb of the PDIP Party," said Airlangga. Continuing, the Chairperson of PAN Zulkifli Hasan (Zulhas) admitted that he finally supported Prabowo as a presidential candidate. This was conveyed by Airlangga after the declaration of Golkar and PAN support for Prabowo as a presidential candidate.

"Through careful consideration, the Central Leadership Council of the National Mandate Party has decided to provide support for the 2024-2029 presidential candidate to Lieutenant General Prabowo Subianto," said Zulhas. "Why did PAN make that decision? We have 10 years together with Pak Prabowo. If you live a little, why can't you wait? We are sure that the 10-year struggle will be over," he added.
