Political communication expert from Esa Unggul University, M. Jamiluddin Ritonga, believes that PKS's decision to propose its cadre in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada is a rational move. Not only because of its status as the winner of the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta, but also due to the party's solid machinery. However, according to Jamil, the decision to propose Sohibul Iman as a gubernatorial candidate is another matter. The former PKS President is considered not popular among Jakarta residents. "PKS nominating Sohibul Iman seems to be aimed at increasing their bargaining position. As the winner of the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta, PKS wants its cadre to be included in the Jakarta gubernatorial or deputy gubernatorial race. Therefore, PKS seems to have proposed Sohibul Iman early on. The goal is to ensure that PKS at least gets the deputy gubernatorial position," said Jamil to Liputan6.com on Monday, June 24, 2024.

Previously, PKS officially nominated Anies Baswedan and Sohibul Iman as prospective gubernatorial and vice-gubernatorial candidates for the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election. This was announced by PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu in his speech at the Party Leadership School titled 'Continuing to Defend the People' at the Grand Sahid Hotel, Central Jakarta, Tuesday (25/6/2024). "The PKS DPP at the meeting on Thursday, June 20, 2024, decided to nominate Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan as the prospective gubernatorial candidate and Mr. Sohibul Iman as the prospective vice-gubernatorial candidate," said Syaikhu.

"The stadium may be Bernabeu, but the shirt is still Persija, and the greeting remains Sajete. Am I the first Indonesian to do this?" wrote Anies Baswedan, as quoted by Liputan6.com from his Instagram account @aniesbaswedan, Tuesday (25/6/2024). Anies posed with the typical Jak Mania gesture, with his thumb and index finger forming the letter J. He was also wearing a Persija football club jersey.

**Sohibul Iman Ready to Run for Jakarta Governor** Deputy Chair of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) Syuro Council Mohamad Sohibul Iman said he is ready to run as a gubernatorial candidate in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. Sohibul stated he had been informed by the PKS DPP about the decision to nominate him as a gubernatorial candidate in the Jakarta Pilkada. However, he said he has no special preparation. "I have no special preparation, but as a party cadre, I must always be ready to accept any mandate," said Sohibul Iman when confirmed, quoted on Monday, June 24, 2024. According to Sohibul, the PKS DPP decision is a follow-up to the recommendation from the PKS DKI Jakarta Regional Executive Board (DPW). His name emerged from several other names also proposed by the PKS DKI Jakarta DPW, such as PKS DPP Chair Mardani Ali Sera, PKS DKI Chair Khoirudin, and former Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan. "This mandate is an aspiration (proposal, desire, and hope) from the DKI cadre and inspiration (thoughts, considerations, and decisions) from the Central Leadership," said Sohibul. Therefore, Sohibul Iman stated he would accept the task given by PKS to run in the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial race. "As a cadre, it is not appropriate for me to ignore the cadre's aspirations and the leadership's inspiration," stated Sohibul.

"The role of the media is very important in the success of the 2024 simultaneous elections, especially in providing political education and maintaining public order," said Sigit in his speech, quoted from Antara, Tuesday (June 18, 2024).

The East Java KPU has carried out several stages of the 2024 regional elections for the province. These include the recruitment of members of the District Election Committee (PPK) and the Voting Committee (PPS). They have also completed the stage for submitting support requirements for independent candidate pairs. "The next stage we will undertake soon is updating and compiling the voter list," stated East Java KPU Chairman Aang Kunaifi.

According to Syaikhu, PKS requires form a coalition with other political parties to support Anies-Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. "We will invite various other parties to support this pair," he said. However, Syaikhu admitted that there has been no communication with PDIP leadership regarding the Jakarta Pilkada so far. "Officially, I haven't (communicated with PDIP)," he said.

He explained that the decision of the PKS Central Leadership Council (DPP) to nominate Anies and Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election was based on suggestions submitted by the PKS Jakarta Regional Leadership Council (DPW). "I have received a letter from the DPW DKI Jakarta structure that has proposed the DKI gubernatorial candidate to the PKS DPP, followed by the DKI vice-gubernatorial candidate to the PKS DPP. Among the letters was a request to endorse, approve, and designate Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan and Mr. Mohammad Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial and vice-gubernatorial candidates for DKI," said Syaikhu Should you loved this short article and you want to receive much more information concerning Climate change at DNC assure visit our site. .
