PKB Chairman Muhaimin Iskandar invited former DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan or PSI General Chair Kaesang Pangarep to register with PKB as a candidate for Governor of DKI in the 2024 Pilkada later.

"Anyone who will register, Mas Anies, Sudirman Said, or Kaesang, will be tested for capacity, quality of vision and mission, and electability," said Muhaimin in Semarang as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, June 6.

Gus Imin said Anies Baswedan's communication with the DKI Jakarta PKB DPW had narrowed.

However, all prospective candidates who register through PKB will go through a fit and proper test.

Nationally, continued Muhaimin, there will be around three thousand candidates who will register with PKB to obtain advanced recommendations in regional elections at the provincial and district/city levels.

Meanwhile, according to Cak Imin, only 38 candidates have their recommendations been issued.

The candidates, he continued, did not only come from internal PKB, but also other political parties.

"There are times when it is difficult because we have to wait for the coalition, but we also have to wait for competition between candidates," he added.

Muhaimin also admitted that it was not easy to determine which candidates would be promoted with a large number of candidates, but at this short time.
