Chairman of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin responded to the statement by the Deputy Secretary General of PKB Syaiful Huda who announced the promise of free fuel oil (BBM) if the Anies Baswedan-Cak Imin pair won the 2024 presidential election.

The Vice President of the Amendment Coalition said there was a misunderstanding regarding Syaiful Huda's statement.

"Oh yes, it was misunderstood, yes, transportation subsidies should not be stopped, especially access to work," Cak Imin told reporters after attending the event "Halaqoh the ajengan and habaib in Soreang, Bandung," quoted by ANTARA, Friday, September 15.

The subsidy, he continued, is intended for people who work at the lower level and do not get adequate public transportation.

"People who work at the lowest level, cannot leave the house and do not get adequate public transportation can use motorbikes with special fuel subsidies, so it is not impossible to do 0 rupiah," he said.

Previously, a video of the statement by the Deputy Secretary General of PKB, Syaiful Huda, went viral on social media.

In the video, Syaiful Huda reveals several promises if Cak Imin can win in the upcoming 2024 presidential election. One of the promises made is free fuel.

"If Gus Muhaimin and PKB win, all those who have motorbikes, fuel that we subsidize. Free. Without charge. Who here owns a motorcycle? PKB wins, Gus Muhaimin is president, subsidized as low as the subsidy price
