JAKARTA - NasDem Party DPP chairman Willy Aditya said the election of DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan and Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo as presidential candidates for 2024 was not to boost party electability.
According to Willy, the emergence of these two names is a reality in society. These two names were the most superior when the regional leadership council asked the people who the presidential candidate would be chosen later. So, said Willy, it was not NasDem who wanted to boost the party's electability by announcing the names. But that name is a reality in society. "The two big names, Anies Ganjar, are always present in all surveys, that's just the reality. Why is Anies-Ganjar called the DPW the most? Jakarta, Thursday, June 23.
Willy then mentioned the reason for the party's nomination of external candidates. It's not that internal regeneration isn't working, but the party doesn't want to put forward its ego by forcing itself to propose its own cadres. NasDem, he claims, wants the nation's potential children to be encouraged to fight for a better Indonesia. In fact, Willy said, it is an honor if a party carries cadres of other political parties. "It's a form of respect when we bring in other party cadres, we should be flattered from my perspective. It's flattering, we have a stock of party cadres, right? You have great cadres, we stretch it," explained Willy.
Moreover, he added, NasDem's support for cadres of other political parties is not the only time. Previously, in the last presidential election, NasDem also supported Joko Widodo, who is a PDIP cadre. Even in the Pilkada NasDem also worked hard to win candidates without political parties without having to become party members. "And it's not the first time, Pak Jokowi and the regional head election are the same, so there's no need for NasDem either," explained Willy.
"Ridwan Kamil was promoted to win, first, hard work, he wasn't promoted to NasDem until today,"
