Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto said the candidate for vice president (cawapres) assistant to Ganjar Pranowo is being studied. This figure is certain to be announced in a momentum deemed appropriate by PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri

"Regarding who will accompany Pak Ganjar, he has undergone an in-depth study, just waiting for the right momentum to be announced by Megawati," Hasto told reporters in Gorontalo as quoted from his written statement, Friday, September 22.

Meanwhile, regarding the issue of Ganjar being paired with Prabowo Subianto in the 2024 presidential election, Hasto ensured that the position of the former Governor of Central Java remained as a presidential candidate (candidate) who had received support from PPP, Hanura, Perindo apart from PDIP.

He ensured that all parties that had carried out political cooperation would try to win Ganjar.

"So who will accompany Pak Ganjar Pranowo, Mr. Ganjar's position is a presidential candidate promoted by the PDI-P, PPP, Hanura and Perindo," he said.

"We complement each other, it doesn't intersect but strengthens each other's voter base and is supported by volunteers," continued Hasto.

Hasto asked all parties to be patient waiting for the Ganjar pair. However, he ensured that the name chosen would be able to work together to continue the leadership of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).

This is because this figure must be able to move quickly and pay attention to workers to teachers who are the pillars of progress. And Mr. Ganjar and his vocational schools are the best practices of regional heads for children who are unable to be trained in mental revolution, mastering skills. In fact, many work abroad, "he concluded.
