JAKARTA - Khofifah Indar Parawansa is considered a potential figure in the 2024 Pilkada contestation. Among several parties, the PDIP Regional Management Board of East Java Province is included in the'meru' stage.

"PDIP is still wooing Mbak Khofifah," said East Java PDIP DPD Chairman Said Abdullah on the sidelines of Ramadan activities at the East Java PDIP Office in Surabaya, Sunday night, as reported by Antara.

However, the member of the Indonesian House of Representatives admitted that the process was not in the corridor to support it, but only to explore the extent of the former East Java Governor Khofifah Indar Parawansa's view to the PDIP.

"Likewise, PDIP invites Mbakyu Khofifah as she wants in the next five years," he said.

Buya Said, as he is familiarly called, also admitted that he had met and shared information with Khofifah some time ago discussing how East Java will go forward, including Khofifah's positioning.

"Honestly, we have the correct respect for Mbakyu Khofifah," said the politician from Sumenep, Madura, that.

Regarding PDIP cadres who are prepared to fight in the 2024 East Java Pilkada, Said said that his party has many cadres to be nominated, both as a candidate for governor and a candidate for deputy governor.

When asked about his own name to run in the East Java Pilkada, Said emphasized that he is currently focusing on serving party officials.

"If I go forward, the clothes don't fit. Now I am tasked with serving party officials and want to do my best anywhere during the assignment of the party and the general chairman," he said.

Meanwhile, the mechanism carried out by PDIP to nominate regional heads is still carried out according to the applicable internal regulations.

The mechanism, continued Said, was initiated by the DPD, then published, then regional level meetings, until discussed and proposed to the DPP.

Next, the DPP held a special meeting, then to the General Chairperson of the PDIP DPP Megawati Soekarnoputri.
