As is known, the General Chairperson of the PDI-P (PDIP) Megawati Soekarnoputri has announced that Ganjar will be paired with Mahfud MD, who is currently the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs (Menko Polhukam). The announcement was made today, Wednesday, October 18.

"Bismillahirrohmanirrohim, then the vice presidential candidate chosen by the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle who will accompany Mr. Ganjar Pranowo is Prof. Dr. Mahfud MD," said Megawati at the PDIP DPP Office, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, October 18.

According to the PDIP chairman, the election of Mahfud MD as a vice presidential candidate has been carried out through various contemplations and dialogue of the mind.

"I have made a decision firmly," said Megawati unanimously.

Regarding the reason Mahfud was chosen as vice presidential candidate, Megawati said that Mahfud was a familiar figure for her because he and Mahfud had worked at the Pancasila Ideology Development Agency. In addition, Mahfud is considered to be an intellectual figure who has good capacity.

"I pay attention to his knowledge in the field of law which is very full of experience," he said.

In addition, Megawati also said that Mahfud was a person who had complete experience both in the realm of the legislature, executive, and judiciary. In Megawati's eyes, Mahfud is also known as a legal warrior and defender of wong cilik.

"Prof Mahfud is also known by the people as a warrior of the law and defender of the little wong," said Megawati.

The former Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court (MK) was also mentioned by Megawatio as an honest and brave person. Megawati did not doubt Mahfud MD's ideological commitment.

"Then Mr. Mahfud is still doing what he is, honest, brave, and his ideological commitments need not be doubted," said the PDIP chairman.
