JAKARTA - The relationship between the Governor of Central Java and the PDI-P (PDIP) is again in the spotlight after Ganjar was absent from the halal bihalal between regional heads held by the Central Java PDIP DPD last weekend.

Ganjar Pranowo was in South Sulawesi traveling to Gowa while attending the wedding reception for the daughter of the Mayor of Makassar M Ramdhan (Danny) Pomanto.

It was suspected that Ganjar was absent from the halal bihalal event because he was not invited by the Chairman of the Central Java PDIP DPD, Bambang Wuryanto or Bambang Pacul.

Political observer from Indonesia's Al Azhar University, Andriadi Achmad, said that since some time ago, the relationship between Ganjar and Puan Maharani as the crown princess of PDIP was not harmonious.

In fact, according to him, it is very clear that Puan Maharani indirectly represents PDIP and often satirizes Ganjar. Even the chairman of the DPR seemed to get rid of the presence of Ganjar Pranowo in front of the 2024 presidential candidate celebration.

"Actually, this reality has become an alarm that PDIP does not approve or even supports Ganjar Pranowo as a presidential candidate in 2024," said Andriadi when contacted by VOI, Tuesday, May 10.

However, continued Andriadi, politics is very dynamic. He considered that PDIP could hand over the presidential election ticket to Ganjar before registering with the KPU.

"However, this dynamic politics could end in injury time," he said.

With a note, the candidate from the PDIP who was prepared, namely Puan Maharani, could not gain public sympathy to be elected as the next president or vice president of Indonesia.

"If PDIP is not able to upgrade Puan Maharani as both a presidential and vice-presidential candidate in 2024. So, it is possible that the ticket for the 2024 presidential candidate will be given to Ganjar Pranowo as Jokowi's successor as a presidential candidate, not from the Soekarno breed," he said.
