JAKARTA - The Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf), who is also the Deputy Chair of the Board of Trustees of the Gerindra Party, Sandiaga Uno, said he was ready to be supported as a presidential candidate (Capres) in 2024.

Responding to this, the Daily Chairperson of the Gerindra DPP, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, did not bother. He believes Sandiaga knows the boundaries and ethics of the party. "This is what happened," said Dasco at the Parliamentary Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Thursday, September 1. Dasco emphasized that Gerindra cannot prohibit a person's political rights, including Sandiaga. However, he reminded that there are rules and ethics for cadres who want to run for the 2024 presidential election. "We are not in a prohibited position, but as an active in politics, of course, the person concerned knows the boundaries and ethics when he wants to run as a presidential candidate, especially from other parties, right," he added. The Deputy Speaker of the DPR explained that it is the constitutional right of everyone to apply for president. "Regarding the presidential candidacy, it is a right that is protected or then the right given by the constitution as long as it meets the requirements in accordance with the election law, of course," said Dasco.

If it is supported as a presidential candidate, said Dasco, maybe Sandiaga will conduct an assessment with other political parties in welcoming 2024.

"That later it was nominated or kept in touch with other parties, I think about the assessments, maybe because Mr. Sandi wanted to try to explore. And because he was ready, of course, there will be political steps taken by Mr. Sandi, that's Pak Sandi knows," he added.

Even so, Dasco emphasized that the determination of the presidential candidate that Gerindra would carry was final. Gerindra is known to have declared its General Chair, Prabowo Subianto, to be promoted as a presidential candidate in the 2024 presidential election.

"Oh, it's clear that Gerindra is final that the presidential candidate is Pak Prabowo. It's been knocked," he said.
