KIB Presidential Candidate Criteria Apart From Electability, PPP: Can Lead A Party Or Regional Head

JAKARTA - The chairman of the United Development Party (PPP) DPP, Ahmad Baidowi, revealed a number of criteria for presidential candidates (candidates) that will be carried out by the United Indonesia Coalition (KIB).

"Actually, the general criteria that KIB has, first is integrity. Second, it has capabilities or abilities," Baidowi said, Wednesday, November 16, evening.

The third condition is that it has a commitment to the public or people. Awiek said that KIB itself had the vision and mission of the National Economic Transformation Acceleration Program (PATEN). This idea came earlier before KIB announced who the presidential candidate would be. "Therefore, the policies that will be produced will certainly be pro-people," said Awiek.

Next is experience. This leadership experience, said Awiek, is not an experience as president. "But leading can be parties, organizations, bureaucracy, regional heads, government or ministers," he said.

"It is undeniable that the electability level of candidates is also very important. For this reason, talks for the sake of conversation at KIB are still being carried out," Awiek added.

Meanwhile, Deputy Chairperson of the Golkar Party Ahmad Doli Kurnia said, KIB has formed a small team to discuss the agenda for the 2024 General Election. "We still have small and limited meetings, there is a kind of small team that discusses what will be done or the agenda that will be carried out by KIB in the future," he said.

Regarding when the agenda and figure will be announced in the 2024 presidential election, Doli said he was waiting for the direction of the General Chair of the Golkar Party, Airlangga Hartarto. "This is still dynamic, the development will continue to be discussed. As has been conveyed by three ketum including Pak Airlangga, the momentum will be conveyed later," concluded Doli.
