Deputy Secretary General of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Syaiful Huda said that his party would announce who will be promoted in the Jakarta Pilkada next week before the implementation of the 6th PKB Congress.
"Before the congress there has been a decision. Hopefully the 23rd. Hopefully, yes," said Huda at the PKB DPP Office, Senen, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, August 13.
So far, PKB has not confirmed whether to continue to carry Anies Baswedan in the Jakarta Pilkada or change course to carry Ridwan Kamil with the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (PKB).
"We have not decided yet. However, the DPW (DKI Jakarta PKB Regional Leadership Council) has proposed (Anies Baswedan)," said Huda.
Regarding the dynamics of the nomination in the Jakarta gubernatorial election, PKB DPP chairman Ahmad Iman Sukri admitted that his party would follow PKS's steps if it officially withdrew support for Anies Baswedan to be carried in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. PKS did start giving signals that it would leave Anies.
In the nomination of the candidates for Governor-Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, 22 seats for the DKI Jakarta DPRD are needed from political parties (political parties) or coalition associations. Meanwhile, the PKB seat is not enough to carry Anies alone or join NasDem if he does not withdraw support for Anies.
"So if PKS doesn't go to Anies, automatically PKB can't (pronounce) because PKS is the winner, right. PKB seats 10, less," said Iman, yesterday.

Iman also talked about the opportunity to form a coalition with the PDI-P (PDIP) in the Jakarta gubernatorial election to carry Anies. So far, PKB has not had any agreement with PDIP regarding the regional election coalition in Jakarta.
So, even though the supporting seats are sufficient if they form a coalition with PDIP, Iman emphasized that it is not certain that PKB will carry Anies.
"The ones that are a bit stronger are actually in East Java, PDIP and PKB, if the gubernatorial election. If it's in Jakarta, yes, interpret it yourself," he said.
