JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Board of Trustees Grace Natalie expressed her party's hope that the Constitutional Court (MK) would grant a judicial review of the Election Law regarding the age limit for presidential and vice presidential candidates.

PSI submitted a judicial review with case number 29/PUU-XXI/2023. PSI in its petitum requested that the age limit for presidential and vice presidential candidates for 40 years be changed to 35 years.

Grace said that the results of this decision will be the basis for consideration of PSI's support, especially for the vice presidential candidate in the 2024 presidential election. This was revealed by Grace in the National Land Coffee (Kopdarnas) at Tennis Indoor Senayan, Jakarta.

"We ask that the determination of the presidential candidate from PSI be taken seriously considering the factors for who the vice presidential candidate will be. It is necessary to pay close attention to all political dynamics including the judicial review process to the Constitutional Court regarding the age limit for presidential and vice presidential candidates which is being proposed by LBH PSI at the Constitutional Court," said Grace, Tuesday, August 22.

According to Grace, if the Constitutional Court grants their lawsuit and the vice presidential candidate is at least 35 years old, PSI will support the young figure.

"If the Constitutional Court grants the PSI LBH Material Test and there are candidates, young people aged at least 35 years who have the capacity and capacity as vice presidential candidates, then the PSI DPP should provide support to the vice presidential candidate," explained Grace.

Grace's statement seemed to signal that the party bearing the rose flower symbol wanted to support the Mayor of Solo, Gibran Rakabuming Raka. Moreover, Gibran also attended the PSI Kopdarnas tonight.

Grace also mentioned that the eldest son of President Joko Widodo is the regional head who is most prominent today.

Gibran, continued Grace, was able to build Solo into a modern city that continues to serve the needs of the people. According to him, Gibran also shows a very strong commitment to unity and respect for diversity.

"Starting from making Ogoh-ogoh parades to commemorate Nyepi Day until breaking the seal on the house of worship. This is just cool, mas. This is an example of a young leader of the future. Mas Gibran PSI is very strong," he explained.

For information, PSI held a Kopdarnas event which was attended by the supervisory board, administrators at the central to regional levels, as well as party cadres. Apart from Gibran, this event was also attended by PDIP politician Budiman Sujatmiko and the daughter of the fourth President of the Republic of Indonesia Abdurrahman Wahid, Yenny Wahid.
