JAKARTA - The United Development Party (PPP) continues to propose the name of the Chairman of Bappilu PPP Sandiaga Uno as a candidate for vice president (cawapres) Ganjar Pranowo in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres). Plt Chairman of PPP Muhammad Mardiono even said the proposal was submitted directly to the PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri. This moment occurred when a party supporting Ganjar held a meeting at the PDIP DPP Office, Menteng, South Jakarta on Monday, September 4. "Oh yes, yes, we will tell you. We will convey (Sandiaga's name to Megawati, ed)," said Mardiono after the meeting. Megawati responded to this proposal. “ (He said, red) good, good,” he said. Mardiono also claimed Megawati would consider Sandiaga to accompany Ganjar. All of these steps were taken to seek the former Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta as a vice presidential candidate (cawapres) according to the PPVI Rapimnas. "Yes, because this is a decision in the VI Rapimnas, that's what we continue to fight for," he said. Meanwhile, the Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto revealed that there were a number of discussions carried out by the general chairman of Ganjar's supporting parties while gathering at the PDIP DPP. Discussions include the momentum of public announcements. "Of course, in the closed meeting, the general chairmen also discussed strategic matters related to the momentum of the announcement of the prospective vice president candidate who will accompany Pak Ganjar Pranowo, when will it be done," he said in the same location.

Even so, Hasto is still closing the meeting of figures who will accompany Ganjar in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres). Because, the name still needs to be discussed. In addition, they are also still waiting for Ganjar to finish serving as Governor of Central Java on September 5. "So that matters related to who will accompany Pak Ganjar Pranowo will certainly have further discussions to determine the momentum and who," he said.
