JAKARTA - The discussion of a companion figure to the Governor of Central Java (Central Java) Ganjar Pranowo in the 2024 presidential election will be discussed next June. The United Development Party (PPP) will present a name to the PDI-P (PDIP).

"PDIP together with PPP have conveyed that it is related to the presidential candidate, namely Pak Ganjar. God willing, in June there will also be stages to take steps to observe and discuss the vice presidential candidate," said PPP Secretary General Awangani Thomafi, Wednesday, May 23.

One of the names offered later was the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Uno. To be clear, Arwani said, this figure is indeed close to PPP even though it is not yet a cadre.

"Pak Sandi has been communicating, often goes together, the survey is also good and is often mentioned," he added.
