YOGYAKARTA The name Ahmad Heryawan has become increasingly prominent after his name was proposed by the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) to accompany Anies Baswedan when he ran in the 2024 presidential election. Apart from that, here is Ahmad Heryawan's profile.
Dr. H. Ahmad Heryawan, Lc., M.Si. was born on June 19, 1966 in the city of Sukabumi. His name is known by the people of West Java because he had served as Governor of West Java for two terms.
In the first period, Ahmad Heryawan ran with Dede Yusuf for the period 2008-2013. Then in the 2013-2018 period, the man who is familiarly called Aher returned to the governor's seat accompanied by Deddy Mizwar, a politician who had a career as a national actor.
Aher received upper middle education at SMA Negeri 3, Sukabumi. After that he continued his education after receiving a scholarship from the Arab Embassy at the Faculty of Sharia Islamic and Arabic Sciences Institute (LIPIA).
Aher is also noted to have been a lecturer at several universities such as the Al Hikmah Islamic Da'wah Institute, Ibnu Khaldun University, and FE Extention UI. His status as an educator at that time was also diverse, ranging from a permanent and non-permanent lecturer. Not only as an academic, Aher is also known as a preacher or lecturer.
Ahmad Heryawan's career is not only in the academic sphere. This is because he is noted to have sat in the chair of Deputy Chair of the DKI Jakarta Provincial DPRD for the period 2004-2009.
Ahmad Heryawan started his first political career in the Justice Party, a party that has now turned into a Prosperous Justice Party (PKS). His career in the party turned out to be quite smooth. He was even trusted as Chairman of the PK faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD for the 1999-2004 period.
This is not the first time Ahmad Heryawan's profile has been linked in the presidential election. In 2014, he declared himself ready to run as a presidential candidate for the Republic of Indonesia. Quoted from jdih.subang.go.id, at that time Heryawan also claimed that his candidacy for support from professionals.
Several sources also said that the support received from Deddy Mizwar, who was then deputy governor of West Java and Chairman of the West Java PKS DPW. At that time, the PKS DPW said that eight provinces supported Aher to run for president.
However, Aher's determination as a presidential candidate at that time was dashed because PKS actually supported Prabowo Subuanto and Hatta Rajasa.
Aher's name was again mentioned by PKS to be juxtaposed with Anies Baswedan as a presidential candidate in 2024. Anies himself was promoted by the NasDem Party.
Spokesperson for the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) Muhammad Kholid explained that PKS initially planned to propose five names for the 2024 vice presidential candidate, namely Ahmad Heryawan, Hidayat Nur Wahid, Iwan Prayitno, Ahmad Syaikhu, and M Sohibul Iman.
However, PKS narrowed five names to one, and it was proposed by Ahmad Heryawan. However, the decision is not final because there are still discussions with the NasDem Party and the Democratic Party.
