JAKARTA - PKS will communicate with PKB regarding the duet of Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the Jakarta Pilkada. It is known, PKB also stated that it supports the former governor of DKI Jakarta to run again in the 2024 Pilkada.

"What we understand is that the DPP wants to meet with the PKB DPP. Tomorrow night we will meet together," said Deputy Chairman of the PKS Syuro Council, Hidayat Nur Wahid, Monday, July 22.

"Tomorrow night there is a PKB Milad, right. I was also invited, at the JCC if I'm not mistaken. I will come and God willing, the PKS management will also come," he continued.

According to information from the DPW PKS Jakarta, continued HNW, communication to the PKB DPW has been running only at the DPP level. However, HNW assessed, communication related to the coalition needs to be rushed.

"I received information from the chairman of the PKS DPW that the communication was done.

"Yes, indeed this kind of communication can't be very slow but it can also be very fast," said HNW.

"But let it be part of the dynamics that we believe that in the end everyone wants Jakarta to be better," he continued.

Regarding when PKS will sit down with political parties supporting Anies, the Deputy Chairperson of the MPR is reluctant to comment. According to him, it is under the authority of PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu and Sohibul Iman as deputy governor candidates to accompany Anies.

"Well, he asked Pak Sohibul or Pak Syaikhu," he concluded.

It is known, apart from PKS and PKB, NasDem has also just officially declared support for Anies to run for the Jakarta gubernatorial election. The coalition is just waiting for the PDIP's attitude to be interested in supporting Anies.
