JAKARTA, KOMPAS — The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle is prioritizing its own internal cadres to advance in the DKI Jakarta Regional Head Election. However, the political party with the bull's head symbol also opens up the possibility of cooperation with other parties.
DPP Chairman PDI-P Djarot Saiful Hidayat said that there were a number of names proposed to be put forward in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. including Minister of Social Affairs Tri Rismaharini, Minister of Public Works and Public Housing Basuki Hadimuljono, former Governor of DKI Jakarta Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, and former TNI Commander Andika Perkasa.
Although there are several names, PDI-P has not yet decided who will be put forward in the Jakarta Regional Elections. "This is still in the selection phase. So, there are many potential candidates. From within PDI-P, we have many names. We also communicate with political parties in Jakarta," said Djarot in Jakarta on Monday (5/6/2024).
Original Article: Indonesia akan menjadi tuan rumah Konferensi Tingkat Tinggi ASEAN pada 2023 mendatang. Konferensi ini akan menjadi ajang Indonesia untuk memperkenalkan potensi dalam meningkatkan pertumbuhan ekonomi ASEAN. Pemerintah Indonesia mencanangkan target pertumbuhan ekonomi ASEAN sebesar 5,2% pertahun melalui sejumlah kebijakan yang pro-pertumbuhan ekonomi.
English Translation: Indonesia will host the ASEAN High-Level Conference in 2023. This conference will be an opportunity for Indonesia to introduce its potential for boosting ASEAN's economic growth. The Indonesian government has pledged to achieve a 5.2% annual economic growth rate for ASEAN through various pro-economic growth policies.
Djarot stated that there are criteria for choosing a name to run in the Jakarta regional elections, namely having the courage and boldness to enforce regulations and implement the constitution impartially, being honest, having integrity, being open, and transparent so that Jakarta residents can participate in controlling and overseeing the governance.
Prospective governors and deputy governors must also have wisdom and care for the poor, be able to execute city programs and policies, and work together with many parties to uphold Pancasila ideology. Electability is also the most important factor in promoting gubernatorial candidates.
"Jakarta is, isn't it, a melting pot. "The place is a diverse community, so we have to be able to work together," said Djarot.
Jakarta is, right, a 'melting pot'. The place is a diverse community, so we must be able to work together.
Between the review and Megawati's prerogative
Currently, the PDI-P is studying the existing names to be proposed as candidates for governor and deputy governor of DKI Jakarta. The PDI-P also takes survey results into consideration. On the other hand, there is a prerogative right of the PDI-P Chairperson Megawati Soekarnoputri to decide on the chosen names.
The issue of air pollution is not a new one. The condition of the community threatened by air pollution has been occurring for a long time. There is no shortage of research evidence indicating the threats posed by the impact of air pollution. However, this has not been able to stimulate significant efforts in controlling air pollution. As a result, residents are increasingly suffering due to the high levels of air pollution.
PDI-P is offering opportunities for both internal and external figures to run in the Jakarta gubernatorial election. Although PDI-P is open to names outside of political parties, according to Djarot, internal cadre will be prioritized as the gubernatorial candidate.
"The PDI-P cadres are a priority for us because our task is to prepare leaders, educate, consolidate, and organize, rather than poaching cadres from other parties. In proposing names, the internal party is a priority," he said.
To support the Jakarta Regional Elections, PDI-P has already established communication with a number of parties. However, Djarot refused to mention the names of the parties in question. According to him, this cooperation is necessary to make Jakarta a better region. The party also declared their readiness to compete against any figure.
If there are no cadres, of course we will open up the widest opportunity to external parties to advance together in the district, city, or governor elections in any area.
Until now, there are several names predicted to run for the Jakarta Governor Election (Pilkada). Chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN) Zulkifli Hasan, at the end of April, mentioned some potential names to run for the Pilkada, such as Eko Patrio, Lula Kamal, and Zita Anjani. Meanwhile, Chairman of the National Democratic Party (Nasdem) Surya Paloh has also signaled support for Anies to run in Jakarta.
Zulkifli said that PAN prioritizes its own cadres to advance in the 2024 simultaneous regional elections. "We prioritize our own cadres," he said.
"If there are no cadres, of course, we will open the widest opportunities for external parties to advance together in the local elections for regent, mayor, or governor in any region," he said.
