The Islamic Axis Can Be Formed, But The Chances Of PKB Candidates For Cak Imin Are Small

JAKARTA - The formation of the third axis in the 2024 presidential election is still being pursued by the National Awakening Party (PKB) by inviting the National Mandate Party (PAN) and the United Development Party (PPP). In fact, PKB also wants to involve the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) to form an Islamic axis.

The Executive Director of Indonesia Political Opinion (IPO), Dedi Kurnia Syah, assessed that this third axis could have been formed if the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) and the Greater Indonesia Movement Party (Gerindra) actually formed a coalition to promote their champion. PKB's desire to nominate Muhaimin Iskandar alias Cak Imin will also be realized if Golkar forms another coalition by only inviting one coalition partner, for example NasDem. However, Cak Imin's chances are still considered small. "Please PKB offer Muhaimin Iskandar as a presidential nominee, but it's certainly not easy," said Dedi in Jakarta, Sunday, December 26.

This is because, continued Dedi, the electability of the Deputy Speaker of the DPR is still minimal when compared to other candidates from parties with the same electability. Moreover, PAN, PPP and PKS of course also consider other candidates whose electability is also qualified. "This axis becomes a battle for figures outside political parties, such as Anies Baswedan or Ganjar if thrown out of the PDIP's internal contestation," said Dedi.

It is known that the Deputy Chairperson of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Jazilul Fawaid opened the opportunity for his party to lead a coalition of political parties in the 2024 presidential election. PKB also intends to nominate General Chairperson Muhaimin Iskandar alias Cak Imi.

According to him, PKB can form a coalition with the United Development Party (PPP) plus the National Mandate Party (PAN) or the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) to meet the threshold for nominations for presidential and vice presidential candidates, aka the presidential threshold of 20 percent. In general [PKB] in the area of Election Winning, I want PKB to lead the axis. PPP, you should join, you are both green," said Jazilul at the DPR Building, Wednesday, December 15. "PKB, PPP, plus one more leave, that's it. For example, if PAN is invited, that's enough, let's go, bismillah, yes, PKS can," he continued.
