JAKARTA - The 2024 presidential election is heating up even though it will still be held in 3 years. Some political parties want presidential candidates and vice presidents to compete for not only 2 candidate pairs, such as the 2014 and 2019 presidential elections.

Vice-Chairman of DPP PPP, Arsul Sani, admitted that his party was ready to come up with alternative candidate pairs by communicating with other parties.

 

"There is no denying that the parties have started to take steps in the framework of the 2024 presidential election, including communicating with each other", Arsul said at the Parliament Complex Senayan, Jakarta, Monday, May 24.
 
In fact, he said, PPP has discussed preparations for the 2024 Presidential Election with the Democratic Party. Arsul Sani claimed to have met with the Secretary-General of the Democratic Party Teuku Riefky Harsya some time ago.

However, Arsul denied that the meeting was about the coalition, especially until the figure that will be carried out in the 2024 presidential election.

"Some time ago, I for example talked over a coffee with the Secretary-General of the Democrats Party. We don't talk about profiles about people", he said.

Arsul explained that the meeting was more about how to prepare for a peaceful presidential election without any prolonged divisions as in the 2019 presidential election.

"In general, we try to equal the way of view is how to make the 2024 presidential election is no longer a democratic event but a sharply divisive society such as the 2014 and 2019 presidential elections", he explained.

PPP and Democrats, he said, want that the 2024 presidential election not only bring up 2 candidate pairs.
