The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) Publicly Backs Anies And Sohibul Iman As The Governor And Vice Governor Candidates In The Jakarta Gubernatorial Election 2024.

"Meanwhile, party candidates, even if the party can't always be relied upon in contests, still have the potential to be mobilized. Especially parties like PDI Perjuangan and PKS, whose voters are usually solid in Jakarta," Usep added.

**PKB: We Want to Build Jakarta Together with PDIP** The National Awakening Party (Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa) has expressed its desire to build Jakarta together with PDIP. PKB Secretary General Hasanuddin Wahid revealed that PKB's cadres and grassroots supporters are pushing for Anies Baswedan to run in the Jakarta Pilkada. He believes that the decision would be even better if PDIP also supports Anies. "Basically, we want to build Jakarta together, with PDIP also joining us," said Hasanuddin Wahid to reporters on Tuesday.

Senior Researcher at Populi Center, Usep Saepul Ahyar, stated that running as an independent in the regional election is quite complex. Moreover, it is challenging to defeat candidates supported by political parties. Independent candidates must secure support from 7.5% of the total Permanent Voter List (DPT). For the Jakarta Regional Election, 618,968 support statements, accompanied by identity cards, are required. "So, independent candidates can't be instant. They must be well-prepared and organized long in advance, securing network support and obtaining 7.5% from the DPT," Usep told Liputan6.com on Monday (13/5/2024).

"For Lampung, Mr. Prabowo has determined that the candidate thought appropriate to be the Lampung governor is Mr. Rahmat Mirzani Djausal. The designation of Mirza as the governor candidate by Mr. Subianto is after considering the perspectives, advice, and feedback he has gathered from different community leaders, specialists, and religious figures in Lampung," Muzani said in his statement. He wishes that the introduction of Djausal as a candidate for governor could be the commencement for Lampung to attain more blessings. Muzani also asked all Lampung Gerindra leaders to stand together to ensure Djausal as the Lampung governor in the forthcoming regional election. However, he said, this announcement is not just for gaining power. As per the message of the president-elect, Subianto Prabowo, power must be employed to defend the interests of the people. "The most important thing is that power must be used as a means to fight for truth and justice and the entitlements of the people. Truth is a principle we have agreed upon in our national unity," he said. "Thus, as noted by Mr. Prabowo, power must be utilized to protect the needy, ensure truth and justice, ensure equity, achieve wealth, and establish a sense of security for all Indonesian people," said the MPR Deputy Chairman. Reminded to Care for the People As per Muzani, providing security and providing food for all people is the duty of a government. Thus, Mr. Prabowo has started a initiative of free lunch and milk for all pupils in schools and pesantren.
