JAKARTA - The chairman of the PDI-P DPP, Puan Maharani, spoke about the opportunity for the Prabowo Subianto and Ganjar Pranowo duet in the upcoming 2024 presidential election. Puan said that her party was still seeing the political dynamics that occurred ahead of the registration of the presidential and vice presidential candidates in October. "Yes, we will see again later, how is the dynamics this one month, whether or not it can happen, all parties have a calculation," said Puan at the DPR building, Thursday, September 21. Puan also cannot confirm whether PDIP is willing to become Prabowo's vice presidential candidate. Because, he said, the party still looks at the considerations related to it.

Including PDIP and Gerindra and political parties who are members of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition. "Earlier to me, Mr. Dasco, next to me, Mr. Lodewijk. So communication to all parties is still carried out. This is a representative of the Golkar party and Pak Dasco Gerindra party. So informal communication is always carried out," explained Puan.
