JAKARTA - The Kompas Litbang Survey found that 62.4 percent of respondents believe that the coalition of political parties (political parties) that are currently being formed is very likely to change.

Moreover, the commitment of political parties that have been established until now is considered unable to guarantee the true picture of the coalition for the 2024 presidential election.

A political observer from the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN), Siti Zuhro, assesses that the coalition map will still change until 2024 because all political parties are still exploring and communicating politics. "It's not easy to conclude. If I'm still at the level of exploring each other, they need chemistry, need the same and mutually beneficial platform. Of course, they think two things, the legislative elections are okay, the presidential elections are ok," said Siti, Monday, September 26.

Seeing the political dynamics that are so fluid, continued Zuhro, active participation from the public and the voices of civil society are needed to encourage the presidential election not to be followed by only two pairs of candidates.

According to her, the 2019 presidential election is enough to provide lessons on the impacts caused when there are only two candidate pairs.

"So in my opinion, if we are not active like 2014 and 2019, there must be two axes, which they just like. Why separate, make energy drained, you don't win. So, now it really depends on civil society," she said.

Zuhro assessed that civil society must encourage political parties to carry out the function of representation by presenting more than two presidential and vice presidential candidate pairs.

"So if the civil society is strong in voicing that the lessons for the election twice make us a representation function that should be carried out by parties, not done. That is what must continue to be made and the impacts of only two pairs of candidates," said Zuhro. "So if we are silent, the civil society is silent, yes, they are walking," she said.
