PDIP is waiting for the decision of political parties at the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) regarding the candidate for governor to be promoted in the 2024 West Java gubernatorial election.

PDIP has not taken any consideration in supporting Ridwan Kamil who is recommended by Golkar or Dedi Mulyadi as a candidate from Gerindra or instead nominate other figures as challengers.

"We are waiting, the information we get Gerindra-Golkar will formulate cagub in West Java and Jakarta. This means that they are trying to form KIM in West Java and Jakarta, in my opinion it is still fluid. They have not decided, including RK, whether in West Java and Jakarta. Airlangga statement wait in July, Gerindra will package Demul (Dedi Mulyadi) with Bima Arya. I see that it is still not final, PDIP is waiting for it," said West Java PDIP DPD chairman Ono Surono to reporters, Wednesday, June 19.

"While waiting, we communicated with PKS, PPP, PKB, including PAN regarding the possibility of a coalition being built in West Java," he continued.

According to Ono, Ridwan Kamil is a good candidate for cagub for the West Java and Jakarta regional elections. This is because the electability of the man who is familiarly called Kang Emil is quite high.

"In Jakarta, the name is competing with Mr. Anies, yes. So yes, as a resident of West Java, I see that RK is both good," said Ono.

Ono emphasized that it is possible that PDIP will form a coalition with Gerindra to carry Dedi Mulyadi. West Java PDIP, he said, is considering all figures who appear in public.

"It can (support Dedi Mulyadi). We have met Gerindra, I have also met Demul, very well. Of course, we are currently analyzing figures in West Java who have the potential for us to advance, for example NasDem, Ilham Habibie," said Ono.

In fact, PDIP also glanced at the former Minister of KKP Susu Pudjiastuti. According to him, Susi is an interesting person to advance to the West Java Pilkada.

"There is a statement, Mrs. Susi, if asked by the community, she will be ready. PDIP will investigate whether Mrs. Susi is ready for us to carry. We can encourage other parties to explore further Mrs. Susi's readiness. I think Susi's figure is attractive," he concluded.
