Cak Imin Boasts Political Parties With PKB To Win The 2024 Presidential Election

JAKARTA - PKB General Chair Abdul Muhaimin Iskandar alias Cak Imin claims that any party in coalition with PKB will win the 2024 presidential election.

"God willing, I will guarantee that as general chairman anyone who is with PKB will win the 2024 presidential election," claimed Muhaimin Iskandar when opening the 2024 PKB Election National Coordination Meeting which was held at the PKB DPP Office, Central Jakarta, Monday, August 28, confiscated by Antara,

Cak Imin said this because he considered PKB to be the strength needed by those who wanted to win the contest in the 2024 Political Year.

"I only convey that God willing, in the dynamics of the presidential election, PKB is needed by all forces to be invited everywhere," he said.

However, in the 2024 PKB Election Coordination Meeting, Cak Imin asked participants to postpone the evaluation of preparations for the 2024 presidential election, due to the very high dynamics of Indonesian politics.

"I propose that this time the National Coordination Meeting does not need to evaluate the presidential election first, because the dynamics are still very high, still very high," said Cak Imin.

He said the National Coordination Meeting would be focused on evaluating preparations for the 2024 Legislative Election.

Furthermore, Cak Imin also emphasized that he is ready to evaluate his performance in preparing PKB to face the 2024 political year.

"As the General Chair, of course, I am ready to be evaluated, how are the stages by which friends of the DPW leaders witnessed it, to then get input providing various alternative ways of working for us," he said.

Cak Imin also expressed his appreciation to all PKB cadres and administrators, especially at the regional level who relentlessly won PKB in sharing political contestation levels.

Registration for presidential and vice presidential candidates is scheduled for October 19, 2023 to November 25, 2023.

Based on Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning Elections (UU Pemilu), pairs of presidential and vice presidential candidates are proposed by political parties or coalitions of political parties participating in the election who meet the requirements for obtaining seats of at least 20 percent of the total seats in the DPR or obtaining 25 percent of the nationally valid votes in the previous election for members of the DPR.

Currently, there are 575 seats in parliament so that the presidential and vice presidential candidate pairs in the 2024 presidential election must have at least 115 seats in the DPR. It could also be that the candidate pairs are promoted by political parties or a combination of political parties participating in the 2019 Election with a total valid vote acquisition of at least 34,992,703 votes.
