JAKARTA - Political communication observer at Esa Unggul University, M. Jamiluddin Ritonga, views that the push for Gibran Rakabuming Raka to run for the 2024 DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election is too much. Because, according to him, Gibran has not been the mayor of Solo for a long time, whose achievements have yet to be seen.
"If Gibran's performance is still as it is today, it seems that there is a risk of pushing him forward for the DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election. Because the capacity of the Governor of DKI Jakarta is ideally equivalent to that of a minister," Jamiluddin said in his statement to VOI, Thursday, September 16.
According to Jamil, Gibran's capacity as mayor of Solo still needs to be tested. President Joko Widodo's eldest son, he said, must be able to prove his extraordinary performance first as mayor.
"So just let Gibran organize the city of Solo until his term as mayor ends. From there it will be seen whether Gibran is worthy of competing in the DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election," he said.
Apart from DKI, according to Jamil, Gibran's chances for the Central Java gubernatorial election are also the same. Jan Ethes's father must first show the results of his performance in Solo.
"If it is forced, it will not be good for Gibran himself. He is pushed to certain positions that do not fit his capacity. That is called pushing Gibran to the brink," said Jamil.
Jamil said, PDIP certainly has many cadres who deserve to be nominated in the DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election. For example, Djarot Saiful Hidayat, may try his luck in 2024.
Jamil said that apart from having the capacity, Djarot had also experienced the softness of the Jakarta governor's seat. Because of that, he already knows how hard it is to be the Governor of Jakarta.
"Djarot also understands the characteristics of the citizens of Jakarta. Likewise, Jakarta's problems, such as congestion and flooding. Therefore, Djarot's chances are much greater if he runs for the DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election," said Jamiluddin
