DENPASAR - The presidential candidate from the PDI-P Ganjar Pranowo hopes that his vice presidential candidate who will accompany him in the 2024 presidential election will have the same vision as himself.

"There is one vision, one value together and we will be able to be united. Anyway, there are almost a lot of things to get close to qualifying," said Ganjar in a press conference after the Bali PDI-P Consolidation event led by PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri in Sanur, Denpasar, Bali, reported by ANTARA, Saturday, June 17.

Ganjar also has no problem with his companion's background coming from a young figure or senior figure, but must remain young.

"Not always (young), many young people have old thoughts, but many parents have young thoughts, the important thing is their souls. If the soul is young, (age) is younger, better," said Ganjar.

However, Ganjar also said that there are still many senior figures who have a young soul and are able to listen to the aspirations of millennials and Gen-Z as well as create productive public policies.

"He (senior figures) understands, understands that he can understand the problem holistically, then can translate it into a very specific decision, but in direct contact with these groups, then it becomes our concern," said Ganjar.

The Governor of Central Java also invited political parties supporting him to submit the name of the candidate for vice president to be discussed together.

"Yes, it's okay to just propose,'many parties join the PDI-P and cooperate," he said.

This was conveyed by Ganjar in response to the United Development Party (PPP) which proposed Sandiaga Uno as a candidate for vice president.

Ganjar said this was a sign of political cooperation between PDIP and PPP for the 2024 General Election.

He hopes that other names who enter the stock exchange will appear as vice-presidential candidates and will cooperate with PDIP. "And who will join and will cooperate and have a candidate, let's be given," said Ganjar.

Ganjar talked about the process of determining his companion vice presidential candidate. Where, it will be discussed through a dialogue between PDIP and its supporting political party.
