JAKARTA - Political observer Hendri Satrio assesses that DPR RI Chair Puan Maharani is the most rational figure for PDIP to be promoted as a presidential or vice presidential candidate in the 2024 presidential election.

"Currently, Puan Maharani is the most rational for PDIP," said Hendri as reported by ANTARA, Saturday, July 23.

According to Hendri Satrio, PDIP can make history by carrying Puan Maharani in 2024.

He explained, in terms of ability as a leader, Puan has passed many tests and forged for quite a long time.

In fact, he continued, before becoming the Chair of the DPR RI, Puan first served as an ordinary member, the Chair of the PDIP Faction of the DPR RI, and then became the Chair of the DPR RI.

"So, there is not only a strong impression that the quality of Puan Maharani is indeed qualified because as Chair of the DPR RI, she has previously served as an ordinary member, faction leader, and even the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture (FMD)," said the Founder of the Opinion Study and Discussion Group of Indonesian Public (KedaiKOPI).

More than that, he said, carrying Puan Maharani was not merely a matter of quality and achievement, but a factor in the history of the nation.

"In this case, there is a historical issue that PDIP is fighting for when it pushes Puan Maharani to become president. Yes, Soekarno's history," he explained.

He said that Puan would be proposed as a presidential or vice presidential candidate in 2024 so that the Bung Karno breed would again compete in the presidential election.

"So in the end, whether it's a presidential or vice presidential candidate, at least Indonesia will have the descendants of the nation's founder, the descendants of the proclaimer, the grandson of Soekarno, in the 2024 presidential election. This is a proud history in my opinion," he added.

PDIP previously talked about the possibility of a duet between the chairman of the DPR RI, Puan Maharani, and the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan, in the 2024 presidential election.

PDIP said it was not easy to be tempted to nominate another party.
