Anies Baswedan Kantogi's Signal For PDIP Support In The Jakarta Pilkada Is Getting Stronger

JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta PDI-P Regional Leadership Council (DPD) has given a strong signal that it will carry Anies Baswedan in the 2024 Regional Head Election (Pilkada) contestation.

The signal was seen when the Governor of DKI Jakarta 2017-2022 seemed to be so 'intimacy' with the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta PDI-P DPD, Adi Widjaja, after the two held a meeting.

In fact, Adi Widjaja did not deny that it was possible that the PDI-P DPD would choose Anies Baswedan as a Candidate for Governor (Cagub) of DKI Jakarta.

"God willing," Adi told reporters at the PDI-P DPD, Saturday, August 24.

In addition, in a meeting that lasted about an hour, Anies Baswedan and Adi Widjaja also admitted to discussing many things, especially about the 2024 Pilkada. Starting from equalizing vision and mission to discussing guarding the constitution in the right way.

"We equate vision and mission, how we oversee, there is equality we have a view. That we must guard the correct constitution, we must guard the true democracy. That's all," he said.

Meanwhile, Anies added that he would wait for Megawati Soekarnoputri's decision regarding this Pilkada. So, he does not want to boast about whether or not the party bearing the bull symbol "So we will discuss things related to the regional elections. But we are all waiting for what will be the PDIP's decision," said Anies.
