For The Sake Of The Coattail Effect For The 2024 General Election, PPP Make Sandiaga Uno A Candidate For Presidential Candidates

JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of PPP Arsul Sani revealed that there are four to six names of candidates who have the opportunity to support their party as a presidential candidate (candidate) in 2024. One of them is the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Uno.

Arsul admitted that the criteria for the name of the presidential candidate carried by PPP must have a coattail effect or a tail effect so that the figure can boost PPP's voice in the upcoming 2024 election.

"Of course, as a party with a small vote, we have to be aware that we cannot nominate the name of the presidential candidate because it does not complete the presidential threshold," said Arsul at the DPR Building, Jakarta, on Tuesday, September 6.

Not only did it have a positive effect on the party bearing the symbol of the Kaaba, but the figure also had a significant impact on the United Indonesia Coalition alias KIB which was built by PPP with PAN and Golkar.

"Therefore, the presidential candidate that we propose must be able to help boost voice. Not only for PPP but other parties that are currently also in the United Indonesia Coalition," he added.

Besides Sandiaga, Arsul also mentioned that a number of candidates who are still in line with other parties outside the KIB have the opportunity to be promoted by PPP. They are the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo, the Governor of West Java Ridwan Kamil, and the Governor of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan who is proposed as a presidential candidate during the PPP Mukarnas.

"Like PPP in West Java proposing Ridwan Kamil, there was also Anies Baswedan who had visited PPP," he said.
