JAKARTA - The National Awakening Party (PKB) has submitted a proposal for the name of the presidential candidate (candidate) to the Gerindra Party, namely the name Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin. However, Muhaimin said the Gerindra-PKB coalition was still discussing the presidential and vice presidential candidates in 2024. He said the decision regarding this matter still took time. "It has been (conveyed to Gerindra, ed). Ask for time for discussion, this is still a discussion process. Muhaimin Iskandar's new PKB decision is a presidential candidate, there has been no decision (in the coalition)," said Cak Imin at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Friday, February 3. Nevertheless, Cak Imin said the deadline requested by the ulama regarding the presidential and vice presidential candidates was before Ramadan. Thus, discussions related to this will be decided in March. "Actually, scholars have deadlined so that Ramadan can campaign. There are two privileges of Ramadan, the prayers are effective. Usually starting to achieve that goal is to use Ramadan to achieve its goals," said Cak Imin. "Secondly, starting for the campaign is more effective than taking place like now. While it is already at a tight time," he added.
