SURABAYA - The supporting party for the presidential/vice presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka has begun to provide a letter of recommendation to Khofifah Indar Parawansa, to return as a candidate for governor (cagub) in the upcoming 2024 East Java gubernatorial election.

After PAN and Gerindra, the plan is that the Democratic Party and the Golkar Party will also carry Khofifah in the East Java gubernatorial election.

"God willing, the General Chair (Airlangga) will go to Surabaya on December 23th. On that date, Golkar's support for Mrs. Khofifah will be clearer," said the chairman of the East Java Golkar DPD, M. Sarmuji, Monday, December 11.

Sarmuji stated that Golkar had issued a letter of assignment to Khofifah as the Governor of East Java some time ago.

"If the assignment letter as a candidate for governor has previously been issued by the Golkar DPP. Only at that time did Mrs. Khofifah not attend. On December 23, it will be clearer," he said.

Khofifah previously officially received a letter of recommendation for support from PAN and Gerindra to run as Cagub of East Java in the 2024 East Java gubernatorial election. Meanwhile, Golkar in December, and the Democrats have given verbal information to support Khofifah in the 2024 East Java gubernatorial election.

Khofifah admitted that Golkar would almost certainly carry her in the 2024 East Java gubernatorial election.

"Golkar has been confirmed, but the letter has not yet arrived. I have received information (will carry him in the 2024 East Java gubernatorial election)," said Khofifah.

As previously reported, the General Chairperson of the NU Muslim PP who is also the Governor of East Java, Khofifah Indar Parawansa, stated that he would run again in the upcoming 2024 East Java gubernatorial election (Pilgub).

"God willing, I will run again in the East Java gubernatorial election in the next period," said Khofifah, in front of thousands of NU Muslims, during the Dhikr, Sholawat and Joint Prayers in the Context of Welcoming Mother's Day 2023, at East Java Expo Surabaya, Thursday, December 7th.

In front of Muslim pilgrims, Khofifah first explained her success in becoming a governor. These include education, agriculture, livestock to reducing extreme poverty.

"Alhamdulillah, the reduction in extreme poverty in East Java is very extreme. This can be realized thanks to the prayers of all mothers," he said.
