Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto said anyone who has emotional closeness to his party will be invited to the opening of the Rakernas IV on Friday, September 29.

This was conveyed by Hasto after reviewing the rehearsal with the Chairperson of the PDIP DPP who is also the son of PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri, Prananda Prabowo at JiExpo Kemayoran, Jakarta, Thursday, September 28.

"What we invite are those who are because of their functionality, because of emotional bonding with the PDI-P," Hasto told reporters.

Meanwhile, regarding Ganjar's prospective companion, who was once referred to as Mr or Mrs X, Hasto did not want to speculate. He only asked everyone to monitor the activities that would start at 14.00 WIB.

"Tomorrow we'll see from those who come there, we'll see," he said.

After all, he said, the announcement of Ganjar's vice presidential candidate would be delivered directly by PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri.

However, Hasto said, the figure of a woman as an assistant to the former Governor of Central Java was indeed taken into account.

"Only in the PDI-P there are the most female leaders, the most members of the DPR RI, the most female regional heads," said Hasto.

"Will they be the vice presidential candidates who accompany Pak Ganjar Pranowo? Wait for the announcement from Megawati's mother," he continued.

As previously reported, Hasto had revealed that Ganjar's vice presidential candidate was not only a man but also a woman. The statement was made in response to the possibility of the figure being present during the PDIP Rakernas IV.

Initially, Hasto said, the Rakernas IV will focus on food issues. PDIP wants food sovereignty to be carried out in the future.

Meanwhile, regarding the announcement of the vice presidential candidate, said Hasto, the time is still long. This is because the registration of presidential and vice-presidential candidates to the General Election Commission (KPU) will only be held on October 19-26.

"So the priority scale now is to sharpen the narrative about Indonesia's future which will be carried by Mr. Ganjar and Mr. X and then... also Mrs. X. That's right," said Hasto to reporters at the PDIP DPP, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Monday, September 25.
