JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo said that the discourse on nominating his youngest son Kaesang Pangarep in the 2024 Regional Head Election (Pilkada) as a candidate for Mayor of Bekasi, West Java, is a party matter.

"Ask the party," said Jokowi on the sidelines of a working visit in Karawang, West Java, Wednesday, May 8.

When asked if he would provide support to Kaesang, who is the General Chair of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Jokowi asked reporters to ask the party about this.

"Ask PSI, that's party business," he explained.

Jokowi was also reluctant to respond to the discourse on the advancement of the Central Java Police Chief Inspector General Pol Ahmad Luthfi in the Central Java Pilkada.

The Head of State asked reporters to ask the party or concerned.

"That please ask the party or the person concerned. A little bit of Plkada affairs were asked to me, how," he said.
