PKS Spokesperson Pipin Sopian Mentioned That His Party Prefers Having Two Coalitions For The 2024 Jakarta Pilkada.

**Reasons PKS Nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada** The Prosperous Justice Party (Partai Keadilan Sejahtera) formally nominated Anies Baswedan-Sohibul Iman as the cagub and cawagub candidates for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu explained the reasons for nominating Anies and Sohibul Iman for the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election. Anies Baswedan is considered a figure who made significant progress while leading DKI Jakarta. According to Syaikhu, Anies's performance has brought happiness to the residents of Jakarta. "Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan succeeded as governor during the 2017-2022 period with various accomplishments in different sectors of development, advancing the city and bringing happiness to its residents," said Syaikhu at the Party Leadership School Opening at Grand Sahid Jaya Hotel, Central Jakarta, on June 25, 2024.

He mentioned that Sohibul also has an impressive track record in government. "Mr. Sohibul Iman is a technocrat and a scholar who has served as the rector of Paramadina University. He has served in the legislature as Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR RI) from 2013-2014 and has been PKS President from 2015-2020," clarified Syaikhu. Syaikhu stated that PKS is a cadre party with the mandate to conduct cadre and leadership regeneration. Therefore, he said, in the 2024 simultaneous Pilkada, the party will nominate its cadres as candidates for regional heads. "Especially in areas where PKS is the winning party or has a majority of seats in the DPRD. PKS will strive to the utmost to endorse its own cadres as candidates," said Syaikhu.

"Because in our country's constitution, the preamble of the 1945 Constitution mandates that the sovereignty of the people is fundamental in the administration of our state. Achieving our national goals must place the sovereignty of the people as something fundamental," said Warits in Surabaya on Tuesday. Warits emphasized that through the 2024 Pilkada, the sovereignty of the people must be safeguarded together through participatory supervision in public spaces that need to be created. "Because elections are the voice of the people, they must be protected together. They must not be lost," he added.

Of the many Pilkada stages, Warits revealed that all stages have vulnerable points for supervision. "The points are in many aspects, right now in the Voter List Update (Pantarlih) stage, later in the candidacy stage. Candidacy must also be supervised, as well as the campaign stage. Campaigns must not violate regulations and must especially avoid intimidation. There should be no intimidation from authorities or election officials who get involved. They must not force people to direct or win certain candidates. I think we must protect this together," Warits stated.

According to Syaikhu, PKS needs to form a coalition with other political parties to support Anies-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Regional Election. "We will invite other parties to support this pair," he said.

The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) does not rule out forming a coalition with the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) after officially endorsing Anies Baswedan and Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial and deputy gubernatorial candidates in the 2024 Jakarta Regional Election. "Yes, it is very possible (to form a coalition with PDIP)," said Syaikhu at the Opening of the Party Leadership School at the Grand Sahid Hotel, Central Jakarta, on Tuesday, June 25, 2024.

**Realize a Good Pilkada** Because of the many 'dawn attacks' in the last election, Warits reminded that this Pilkada must be protected together, synergized together to be honest, fair, and safe from all fraud. "Yes, we must guard it together. Because it is impossible for Bawaslu alone, the KPU only has six people with its secretariat in each sub-district. Three PPS, three PPS secretariat. They have six people plus seven PKD members, seven people in each village guarding sub-districts with thousands of residents, even tens of thousands. To guard against 'dawn attacks,' it's impossible to handle alone. Therefore, it must be guarded together," Warits advised. Warits mentioned that citizens can only vote in the Pilkada if their mental condition is not insane or they are sane. This means that those who can vote are those who think and are normal. "Do not let the thoughts of the people who can vote be bought at a very cheap price, even cheaper than a chicken. That is an insult to the people. Because those who cannot think should not vote. For example, insane people are regulated by law and should not be included in the DPT. Thus, synergy among all of us is necessary to realize a better Pilkada. I think it's important," he said.

According to Huda, PKS's decision to immediately pair Anies Baswedan and Sohibul Iman is a blunder. "The issue is that pairing Mas Anies and Mas Sohibul Iman immediately is, in my view, a blunder," he said. Huda mentioned that by pairing Anies Baswedan with Sohibul Iman, it closes the door for other political parties to join the coalition. "This will close the door for other parties to collaborate with this coalition," he said.
