JAKARTA - The United Indonesia Coalition (KIB) has yet to reveal the name of the presidential candidate (candidate) who will be promoted in the 2024 presidential election.

Even though after the KIB meeting in Makassar, the Secretary General of the PAN DPP Eddy Soeparno, revealed that there would be a surprise at the next KIB meeting. Either the announcement of the KIB presidential candidate or a new party that would join. Eddy also admitted that PAN is currently communicating with other parties to strengthen KIB. Strengthening the suspicion that the party that will join is PDIP.

Executive Director of Indonesia Political Opinion (IPO) Dedi Kurnia Syah, predicts that if PDIP really joins KIB, it is very possible to carry Ganjar Pranowo - Airlangga Hartarto.

"The surprise led to two things, introducing new presidential and partner figures. The new figures and partners could be Ganjar Pranowo and PDIP. While KIB will fill the vice presidential candidate, and that is Airlangga Hartarto's best choice," said Dedi Kurnia Syah, Saturday, November 12.

Dedi further explained that the length of time KIB determined the concrete direction of the coalition could be due to two factors. First, there are no prominent figures in KIB who are strong enough to be made presidential candidates. "So figures outside the coalition are needed, but Jokowi must know and bless," said Dedi.

Second, waiting for which candidates are confirmed to run as presidential candidates in 2024. So far, there have been two people who have declared themselves as presidential candidates, Gerindra chairman Prabowo Subianto and NasDem presidential candidate Anies Baswedan. "Currently, considering that it is clearer that two figures may be connected, Prabowo and Anies, then KIB could start determining who will be promoted," he said.
