Sandiaga Uploads Political Agreements With Anies And Prabowo, PKS Select Move On

JAKARTA - PKS DPP spokesman Muhammad Kholid admitted that he did not know anything about the written agreement between Prabowo Subianto, Anies Baswedan and Sandiaga Uno regarding the 2017 DKI Jakarta Pilkada. "I don't know about the Anies-Prabowo agreement," said Kholid when confirmed, Tuesday, January 31. Kholid admitted that his party only knew Gerindra's promise to give the position of Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta to PKS after Sandiaga resigned. At that time, Sandi resigned to run for vice president Prabowo. "What I know, Pak Prabowo and Bang Sandi used to promise the Deputy Governor of DKI to make PKS," said Kholid.

However, at that time the position of Deputy Governor was even given to Ahmad Riza Patria, who is the Chairman of the DPD Gerindra DKI Jakarta. So that PKS who also supports the Anies-Sandi pair did not get his rights. Even so, Kholid said, his party prefers to move on rather than bring up past promises. PKS, he said, only wants to look to the future.

"We'll just move on. Look at the future," he said.

Previously, Deputy Chairperson of the Gerindra Party's Board of Trustees Sandiaga Uno said there was a written agreement between Prabowo Subianto, Anies Baswedan and himself regarding the 2017 Regional Head Election. "As far as I remember there was an agreement, it could be a stepping stone and a good discussion because the discussions could analyze how the formation of coalitions and agreements like what was stated in an agreement," said Sandiaga, confiscated by Antara, Monday, January 29.
