JAKARTA - The United Indonesian Coalition (KIB) held a National Gathering in Makassar, South Sulawesi today. Chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN) Zulkifli Hasan stated that the KIB would not break as predicted by a number of parties. KEY consisting of PAN, Golkar, and PPP is even more solid to win the 2024 presidential election. "Many think that KIB will last as long as corn. Before it develops. Suri will die. It will be a mess to break into pieces and eat conflict. Today we are in Makassar, is the answer to the wrong predictions and assessments," said Zulhas in an electronic message received in Jakarta, Sunday, November 6. Zulhas said that KIB was born because it was united by a noble political struggle, namely accelerating the promises of independence so that it could be fulfilled immediately. KIB, he said, was also born because of the similarities in the struggle platform to build a modern political system, namely to make political parties a pillar of democracy, supported by the power of the people, as actors who function to prosper, prosper, and make the people happy, and can protect the nation and state. "“KIB is currently still the only coalition of parties that have officially been formed and have met the 20 percent presidential threshold requirement to be able to nominate a presidential candidate or vice presidential candidate," he said. "KIB is the only one who now has a ticket to apply for a presidential candidate, but we don't want to rush. Because there are also those who don't have enough tickets, but they have made a declaration," said Zulkifli, who was immediately greeted with great fanfare by the audience. Furthermore, the Minister of Trade said that KIB was still standing up, carrying KIB banners to be flown throughout Indonesia. “We still stand strong from the onslaught of political waves. We are still sailing through the ocean of hope to go to the shore with a winning smile, said Zulhas. On this occasion, Zulhas also conveyed the KIB program which was designed to build Indonesian civilization in the next ten years, namely the National Economic Transformation Acceleration Program (PATEN). "The main condition is that the PATEN program can be implemented, namely KIB must win in the 2024 presidential election. Without victory, the PATEN program is only a concept and idea on a piece of paper," he said. Regarding the target of winning KIB, Zulhas conveyed that it could only be achieved seriously and hard work, smart work, and sincere work, as well as fighting for the presidential candidate/presidential candidate pairs that were promoted. More than that, Zulhas reiterated that the KIB struggle was still long. So, he hopes that all parties on KIB will continue to bring each other closer and strengthen their hearts, movements, and struggles to stay solid, strong, compact, and strengthen each other. Zulhas also made an analogy that this KIB trip is similar to his hobby of running. "I like running even though my hair is white. Usually when we run, in the first 3 km it feels heavy. Can it get to the end? But after that it runs smoothly. It looks like KIB. At first we thought if we were strong. But after the first meeting, second, and now third, we are sure that KIB will continue to run up to the finish line!" said Zulhas in his speech.
