Member of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Gilbert Simanjuntak, believes that the candidate for the Governor of DKI Jakarta who will be promoted is a figure who has a Jakarta ID card.
However, the Head of the Regional Education and Training Agency (Badiklatda) of the Regional Leadership Council (DPD) of the DKI PDIP is reluctant to mention who he thinks deserves to be promoted as a governor of DKI Jakarta.
"If it's a name, I can't possibly mention it. But from myself personally, the most suitable candidate is a candidate with a DKI ID card. So far, DKI ID cards are like Ahok from Bangka Belitung, Pak Jokowi from Solo. Yes now, check DKI ID cards," Gilbert told reporters, Tuesday, January 17.
Internally in the party, Gilbert admitted that the election of the DKI cagub was under the authority of the PDIP Party Leadership Council (DPP). However, he views that figures from Jakarta must understand more about their own regional problems. However, that does not mean that the figure must be Betawi.
"What is clear is the control of Jakarta. If you say Jakarta is really, you will have to be Betawi. We will be tortured again if we are considered identity politics. We reject that," said Gilbert.
In addition, a figure who deserves to be the leader of Jakarta, Gilbert continued, is also a person who really cares about Jakarta's problems, has character, and courage.
"Also you can have to control yourself. Because, there are also governors who do not control themselves. I don't have to mention names. Indeed, it takes people who are brave, but in principle they must also have self control," he said.
Meanwhile, the chairman of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Gembong Warsono, admitted that his party has not been able to decide which figures will be promoted as the current Jakarta cagub because PDIP will still wait for the results of the revision of Law Number 29 of 2007 concerning the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government regarding the transfer of the state capital (IKN).
Jakarta will leave the status of the capital city when the capital city officially moves to East Kalimantan. The plan is that Jakarta will be centered as a business city. This development plan will be contained in the revision of the DKI Provincial Government Law later.
According to Gembong, the face of Jakarta after it is no longer the capital city is needed as a consideration as to who the PDIP governor candidate will be in the future.
"What is the status of Jakarta, we must know that first. After that we know, then we will see who is the most suitable for us to be placed as a candidate for the Governor of DKI Jakarta in the future," said Gembong.
"We will see what Jakarta's problems will be in the future, then we will find the most appropriate person to solve the problem," he continued.
