DENPASAR - The presidential candidate (readpres) from PDIP, Ganjar Pranowo, responded to the recommendation of the United Development Party (PPP) regarding Sandiaga Uno's name as a vice presidential candidate for his partner.
Ganjar also invited PPP to propose the name Sandiaga, who had just moved from Gerindra to PPP to be promoted as his deputy in the 2024 presidential election.
"Yes, that's okay, just proposed. Right, there are many parties that join the PDI-P and cooperate," said Ganjar in a press conference after the PDIP Bali consolidation event led by PDIP Chairman Megawati Soekarnoputri in Sanur, Denpasar, Bali, Saturday, June 17.
On the other hand, Ganjar also hopes that other parties in collaboration with PDIP in the coalition will also propose the names of other political figures who have been included in the vice presidential market.
"And who will join and will cooperate and have a candidate, let's be given," said Ganjar.
However, regarding the process of determining the presidential candidate accompanying him, Ganjar said that this matter would still be discussed through a mature dialogue between the PDIP and its supporting political parties.
"So later we will develop (candidates for the names of the vice presidents) together," he said.
The name Sandiaga Uno was previously recommended as a vice presidential candidate (cawapres) by the United Development Party (PPP) DPP. Sandiaga was offered to accompany Ganjar Pranowo in the 2024 presidential election (Pilpres).
This was conveyed by the Secretary General of the PPP DPP Muhamad Arwani Thomafi at the VI PPP VI National Leadership Meeting (Rapimnas) at the Sultan Hotel, Jakarta, Saturday, June 17.
"We will read out the recommendation of the 6th National Leadership Meeting regarding the presidential election that the United Development Party proposed Brother Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno as a vice presidential candidate to accompany presidential candidate Ganjar Pranowo in the 2024 General Election," said Arwani.
Arwani revealed that the PPP Rapimnas VI proposed two vice presidential candidates, namely Sandiaga Uno and Plt Chairman of the PPP DPP Muhamad Mardiono.
However, he said, Mardiono chose to focus on overseeing the entire party's work process to win the 2024 election. He said Mardiono would ensure that all party officials and legislative candidates (caleg) work optimally.
"He decided to focus as the supreme commander, the supreme commander in winning the PPP election in the 2024 election," he explained, as quoted from Antara.
He said Mardiono was mandated to fight for Sandiaga Uno as a candidate for vice president to the Chairperson of the PDI-P Megawati Soekarnoputri.
"PPP mandates the Acting Chairperson of PPP Muhammad Mardiono to convey and fight for Sandiaga Salahudin Uno as vice presidential candidate to the Chairperson of the PDIP Perjuangan, Mrs. Megawati Soekarnoputri, to accompany the presidential candidate Ganjar Pranowo in the 2024 election," he added.
