JAKARTA - At the office of the Regional Representative Council (DPD) of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) DIY, Bumijo, Jetis, Yogyakarta, Chairman of the Indonesian House of Representatives as well as Chairman of the 2014 PDIP Election Winning Team Puan Maharani gave directions at the PDIP Regional Working Meeting (Rakerda). Puan conveyed a number of messages including to win PDIP DIY in the election and directions for prospective legislative candidates (bacaleg).

This meeting was held at the DPD PDIP DIY Office in Bumijo, Jetis, Yogyakarta, Sunday (11/6/2023). The activity was held as a follow-up to the PDIP National Working Meeting (Rakernas) which was just held a few days ago to prepare for the 2024 Legislative and Presidential Elections.

"As a pioneer party that is disciplined in the organization, it should be continued with the Rakerda throughout the province," said Puan in front of PDIP DIY cadres. "So that what has been directed by the Chairperson of the PDI-P, Mrs. Mega, at the National Working Meeting, is immediately echoed in all provinces and Mrs. Mega's instructions are immediately carried out by all PDI-P administrators throughout Indonesia," he continued.

Puan said the target set by PDIP for the 2024 General Election was a significant increase. He also asked about the readiness of party cadres to meet the target. "Ready to meet the target!!? Ready for the PDI-P hat trick!!?" asked Puan.

"Ready," replied the PDIP cadre simultaneously.

"Thank you for the enthusiastic answer. But I need to remind you that apart from high enthusiasm. We also need to have a method to win, we must remain solid if we want the PDI-P to win a hat-trick," continued Puan.

The first woman to serve as Chair of the DPR RI also reminded that the existing stages of the 2024 General Election will take place next. Puan also mentioned the target of winning the election in DIY, and detailed the success that PDID has achieved in this province, including having 2 cadres as regional heads, namely Bantul Deputy Regent Joko Purnomo, and Sleman Deputy Regent Danang Maharsa.

"At the National Working Meeting Forum, the KSB DPD PDI Perjuangan DIY has heard the explanation from the Chairperson of the PDI-P DPP Election Winning Division regarding the campaign method. This then needs to be discussed again along with DPCs throughout Yogyakarta," he said.

Puan then dissected the PDIP vote acquisition targets in DIY. According to him, PDIP DIY cadres must work extra hard because the target set for the 2024 election is quite high for this area, while in the 2019 election, PDIP only managed to pocket about 30% of the total valid votes in DIY.

"This is tough. Many targets are 100 percent increasing. It needs hard work. But I am optimistic as long as I maintain cohesiveness, and mutual cooperation," said Puan.

"Yogya, this DPD office is magnificent, good. The performance of his party should not be inferior to his neighbor, Central Java. So we must win the PDI-P in this special area. Let's fight for the PDI-P victory in Yogya," he added.

Furthermore, Puan mentioned the question of baulaleg, who currently know where their respective electoral districts are. He reminded Babileg to work together and work together, along with the structural of the party and regional heads by conducting consolidation downwards to map the source of the sound of victory.

"Don't give up, don't slander fellow Party cadres, don't fight for votes in the same pool, share work, coordinate with each other, and work together," said Puan.

He added, there is no term star shining alone at PDIP. Puan said, PDIP's principle is to work together like the core of Pancasila as the leader of the party bearing the white muzzle. "In gotong royong there is no such thing as work alone. In gotong royong, we work together. Through this Rakerda, we solidify all the strength of our party, 3 pillars, in winning the 2024 election, "said Bung Karno's grandson. Therefore, let's take care of the solidity of the Party, always perpendicular, and don't be provoked, don't want to be pitted against each other," continued Puan.

The former Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture also asked all PDIP cadres to be introspective and alert to small things that are not realized as bad, because this could be the opponent's attention. Including, conveyed by Puan, in the use of social media (medsos) which is known to be an effective tool in bringing down the image of a person or party.

"Always be wary of yourself, don't be arrogant, show them as party cadres who are close to the people," he said.

Puan reminded that the PDIP character is a wong cilik party. As a wong cilik party, PDIP is said to understand that the real strength is to unite with the people and carry out ideological work for the people. "Three pillars of the party must always greet the people, present concrete things in the midst of the people and create partiality to the people," said Puan.

"Only by consistently going down and together with the people can we achieve the hat-trick victory target in the 2024 election," he added.

Puan explained, the victory of a hat-trick in the 2024 Ultimate Government has a very important and strategic meaning for PDIP. First, as an implementation of party ideology in government. "Second, we place more and more party cadres in legislative institutions. Third, the party has the opportunity to carry the Regional Head in the Pilkada, and fourth, the party again has the opportunity to nominate the President in the upcoming presidential election," said Puan.

The survey is just a portrait when the survey is conducted. As a portrait, it can change at any time, depending heavily on the image of the party, the image of party cadres, as well as the activities of the party with the people," said the two Honoris Causa Doctorate.

According to Puan, the survey results can be used to evaluate the conditions of the battlefield faced by the party today. For this reason, she asked that all party strengths that rely on the 3 pillars of the party must be able to maintain the territorial source of votes in the election so that it will ensure the PDIP's victory.

"Let's fight in one rank, perpendicular to the general chairman, form and build strength to win the 2024 election hatrick. Dhanna eva hato hati: unite because strong, strong because united," explained Puan.

The PDIP Rakerda was attended by around 300 cadres consisting of elements of the DPC, DPD, party wing, as well as members of the Prov/Regency/City DPRD of the PDIP Faction. In addition, the chairman of the PDIP Election Winning Body (Bappilu) Bambang Wuryanto or Bambang Pacul and members of the Indonesian House of Representatives from PDIP, Agustina Wilujeng Pramestuti and Irine Yusiana Roba Putri were also present.

Meanwhile, the Chairperson of the DPD PDIP DIY, Nuryadi, thanked Puan for attending the PDIP DIY Regional Working Meeting. According to him, PDIP DIY wants to hear directions from Puan regarding the winning strategy for the Legislative Election/Pilpres.

"After the National Working Meeting, we immediately mobilized the Regional Working Meeting to immediately move to increase the vote acquisition. Therefore, we ask for Mbak Puan's direction to win the 2024 General Election," said Nuryadi.

"Thank you, Mbak Puan, for being chaotic at the DPD DIY. We all want to hear the direction of winning the 2024 Legislative Election/Pilpres. The target for the presidential election is 70 percent victory in DIY," he concluded.
