JAKARTA - President of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) Ahmad Syaikhu emphasized that the decision to carry Anies Baswedan and Mohamad Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Pilkada of DKI Jakarta Province was final.
"This is the final decision that we carry the pair Anies and Sohibul Iman," said Syaikhu after closing the party school event in Central Jakarta, Thursday, June 27.
Syaikhu assessed that the PKS decision to carry the former Governor of DKI Jakarta as a candidate for governor and Deputy Chair of the PKS Syuro Council was correct. Anies-Sohibul is considered the ideal partner for Jakarta after leaving the status of the capital city.
"I think these two candidates are not candidates whose lives are local, they have also experienced education abroad and various global insights they have. God willing, this will be the main capital to lead Jakarta," explained Syaikhu.
However, Syaikhu realized that PKS could not carry Anies-Sohibul without forming a coalition with other political parties. Given that to carry a candidate pair in the DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election, a minimum requirement for ownership of 22 seats for DKI Jakarta DPRD members is needed.
Meanwhile, PKS, which won the 2024 Legislative Election, only has 18 seats. PKS requires a minimum of 4 additional seats. For this reason, PKS is still building communication with other political parties to invite Anies-Sohibul.
"Then we will communicate. We are grateful that qkita will also build a joint coalition," he said.
Previously, Ahmad Syaikhu officially announced that his party would pair Anies Baswedan and Sohibul Iman as candidates for Governor and Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta in the 2024 Pilkada.
"The PKS DPP at a meeting on Thursday, June 20, 2024 has decided to carry Mr. Anies rasyid Baswedan as a candidate for governor and father Sohibul faith as a candidate for deputy governor," said Syaikhu in Central Jakarta, Tuesday, June 25.
Syaikhu explained the reason for carrying out his cadres, namely the Deputy Chairperson of the PKS Syuro Council Sohibul Iman in the DKI Jakarta Pilkada contestation. According to him, PKS carries a constitutional mandate to carry out regeneration and regeneration of political leadership.
Thus, with his position as the winning party for the 2024 DKI Jakarta DPRD Legislative Election which won 18 seats, PKS felt that it had to carry its cadres in the Jakarta gubernatorial election this year.
"So, PKS will try it as much as possible to propose its own cadres, to become a candidate, is part of being held accountable to constituents including in DKI Jakarta Province as the winning party. It is appropriate and very natural if PKS carries its best cadres to appear as a candidate," explained Syaikhu.
Moreover, Syaikhu views Sohibul as a political figure who has the potential to become a regional leader. Likewise with Anies, who has proven his track record as well as the Governor of DKI Jakarta for the past period.
"Mr. Anies rasyid Baswedan has succeeded in becoming governor for the 2027-2022 period with various achievements in various development sectors, successfully advancing the city, and making its citizens happy," explained Syaikhu.
"Meanwhile, Mr. Sohibul Iman is a technocrat, a scholar who was once the Chancellor of Paramadina University, has experience in the legislature as the representative of the Indonesian House of Representatives for the 2013-2014 period, and has been the President of PKS for the 2015-2020 period," he added.
