JAKARTA - The National Awakening Party (PKB) is waiting for the PDI-P (PDIP) to sit down together to discuss the seriousness of carrying Anies Baswedan as a candidate for governor of Jakarta. This plan will be discussed amicably so that there are no special conditions.

"It's not a decision, really. It's just a discourse, yes. Of course, if you have sat together, it will be discussed objectively in a family manner," said PKB Deputy Chairman Jazilul Fawaid at the PKB DPP Office, Jakarta, Saturday, June 8, 2024.

In addition, PKB wants to see the seriousness of the party bearing the bull symbol.

"Right now, we still can't judge whether it's serious or not, we don't know yet," said Jazilul.

Furthermore, PKB admitted that there was no problem if PDIP proposed internal names from its party such as Andika Perkasa. However, further studies must be carried out because Anies has high electability.

Jazilul said whoever accompanied Anies must be equal.

"The interest of parties in cakada (regional head candidates) is the first of popularity and electability," he said.

"Pak Anies has it (electability, ed.) in Jakarta, other parties to look for other figures who have popularity are also not easy," said Jazilul.

Anies Baswedan has also spoken about the PDIP opportunity to support him as a cagub in the Jakarta Pilkada. He said he was interested if it was true that the party bearing the bull symbol was interested.

However, the former presidential candidate number 01 admits that he has yet to make a decision. Anies is still considering running as a candidate for governor for the second time.

"PDIP is also interesting. So, while we look at these days, hopefully it will come to a conclusion," he told reporters, quoted on Saturday, June 8, 2024.

So is the question of his chances of advancing with Andika Perkasa who is the former TNI Commander.

"I have to conclude first and then talk about a partner," concluded Anies.
