JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan finally admitted that he had established communication with several political parties regarding the nomination of the president in the 2024 General Election.

"I also saw that the party was in process. Then conversations with the party were taking place. So, we respect the process," said Anies when met in Jagakarsa, South Jakarta, Monday, September 26.

In this regard, Anies is reluctant to reveal which parties have looked at him to be promoted as a presidential candidate. However, according to Anies, these parties have a serious attitude when working on which figures will be paired in the 2024 presidential election.

This seriousness, according to Anies, can be seen from the parties that have the opportunity to carry him later not only look at Anies from the results of the political surveys that have been circulating, but also other determining factors.

"In the party, I also see that everyone is serious about this. They don't have a term about genitals, there's no such thing. They think about it all seriously, that's it," said Anies.

"I know because I communicated with many friends, in the party. From there, I also heard that the conversation they had was not just a survey. There were many other factors that they had a conversation about," he continued.

So, while waiting for the establishment of political parties to carry him, Anies admitted that he was focused on completing his duties as Governor of DKI Jakarta until October 16.

"So it's better if I finish it here first, while the party is also in process," he added.

Some time ago, Anies was caught with the Chairman (Ketum) of the Democrats Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY), Ketum Nasdem Surya Paloh, Chairman of PKS Ahmad Syaikhu. Their togetherness was also attended by the 10th and 12th Vice Presidents of the Republic of Indonesia Jusuf Kalla (JK).

The togetherness of the five figures left a warm moment immortalized in the group photo. Interestingly in the photo, Anies and AHY, who stood between Surya Paloh, were seen flanked by JK and Syaikhu.

Anies explained that their togetherness took place at a child wedding reception from the Chairman of Commission VII DPR RI Nasdem Faction, Sugeng Pratowo.

"So, it was the wedding of Mr. Sugeng Suparwo's daughter last night. I witnessed the afternoon, then at night there was a reception. That's all," said Anies when met at the National Monument area, Central Jakarta, Monday, September 19.

Anies said, initially these five figures gathered and chatted about the wedding reception. Then, the discussion began to widen.
