JAKARTA - PDIP DPP chairman Said Abdullah responded to the news of the Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin) due to the NasDem Party's offer to PKB. According to Said, the discourse emerged after Prabowo Subianto announced the new name of his coalition of supporters showed that the political dynamics were still very high. "Although it is marked by various forms of political dance, and all forms of signing political cooperation in public, political facts actually show other things. Dismantling cooperation ahead of the registration period of presidential and vice-presidential candidates is still very dynamic. It's like opening and installing the nuts and bolts," Said told reporters, Friday, September 1. However, continued Said, this fact shows that the political axis that carries Ganjar Pranowo as a presidential candidate is the most solid. Because he said, for PDIP, political cooperation must be based on ideas and ideals together in the future. "The PDI-P's political cooperation is encouraged by mutual cooperation, and builds an inner bond. The PDI-P avoids the cattle' trade political model, because it is hunting for power alone, and will tend to ignore the public's spiritual atmosphere," he said. The East Java electoral district member also considered that it was easier for Cak Imin to convince his supporters to support Ganjar Pranowo than other presidential candidates. Because Said said, there are similarities in the sociological basis of PKB and PDI-P supporters, who are both little people. In addition, he added, the split ticket number of PKB supporters who supported Ganjar Pranowo in the survey results was very large. In fact, said Said, PKB will get a tail of a suit if the party led by Gus Dur's nephew supports Ganjar.

"Therefore, whenever Gus Muhaimin anchored to Mas Ganjar, and together with the PDI-P our door was always open. Even when the yellow janur was curved, before there was an official contract before the KPU, I think the Chairperson of the PDI-P always opened the door for 'the nephew'," concluded Said.
