Deputy Chairperson of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Jazilul Fawaid asked the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) not to insist on pairing Anies Baswedan with his cadre, Sohibul Iman, as a candidate for Governor and Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta.

According to Sohibul, the right selection of figures to become Anies Baswedan's pair in the 2024 DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election still needs to be discussed.

Not only between PKS and PKB, but also other political parties that have the opportunity to form a coalition.

"PKS friends are patient first, to then sit together with other parties, so they don't just lock up the two parties," said Jazilul at the PKB DPP office, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, July 2.

PKB, Jazilul emphasized, is still opening up space for communication with other political parties to determine who will accompany Anies to advance in the Jakarta Pilkada contestation.

"The bigger the coalition, the easier it will be to win, that's DKI. So today, PKB will still open itself up, as the party that first brought Mr. Anies, will also communicate with other parties," he said.

On the one hand, PKB is also still communicating with PDIP to discuss opportunities for Anies' supporting coalition. According to Jazilul, PDIP must also try to present cadres of their choice to be promoted.

"PDIP is also okay with Pak Anies. If only, if the deputy governor candidate or the partner has PDIP, that's roughly the case. Well, that could also be possible with other parties. So, until now (the discussion) has not been completed," said Jazilul.
