JAKARTA - Former TNI Commander General (ret) Andika Perkasa is ready if he is appointed as chairman of Ganjar Pranowo's success team in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres). This was in response to the news that he was on the list of DPP Chaires, Puan Maharani.

"Yes, it's ready if it's assigned," Andika told reporters after the peak of the Bung Karno Month (BBK) event at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium (SUGBK), Senayan, Central Jakarta, Saturday, June 24.

Even so, Andika admitted that he had not been offered anything from PDIP. After all, he did not have time to meet with Puan to talk about timses.

"Yes, but there has been no decision, just wait. We are waiting," he said.

It is known that Andika Perkasa's name has recently been said to have joined PDIP as a cadre. Not only that, he is said to be one of the candidates for the chairman of Ganjar Pranowo's success team.

"Yes, I was assigned to later form a team. (The name Andika Perkasa, ed) is on my list," said PDIP DPP Chair Puan Maharani when she visited the preparations for the Bung Karno Month Peak celebration at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium (GBK), Jakarta, Thursday, June 22.

This issue became more intense after Andika made a pilgrimage to the grave of the First President of the Republic of Indonesia Soekarno. This moment coincided with the day of Bung Karno's death as well as in the 53rd series of Haul Bung Karno events.

On that occasion, he was also accompanied by the Chairman of the PDI-P DPP who is also the former Mayor of Blitar Djarot Syaiful Hidayat, a member of the House of Representatives from the PDI-P faction Andreas Pareira, the Chairman of the Soekarno Education Foundation Development Board, Romy Hendra Rahtomo Soekarno, and the Chairman of the Soekarno Education Foundation, Dade Marhaendra.
