**Former Anies Spokesperson Praises Sohibul Iman, Criticizes Jakarta Pilkada as Stepping Stone to 2029 Presidential Election** Former Co-Captain of the Anies Baswedan-Muhaimin Iskandar (AMIN) Winning Team, Sudirman Said, supports the PKS DPP’s decision to nominate Sohibul Iman as the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial candidate. Sohibul Iman’s capacity and integrity are proven, so there is no doubt about his ability to lead Jakarta in the future. “Certainly, friends and cadres in the PKS Faction in the DKI DPRD will be good sources and provide good input, given their daily legislative, budgetary, and oversight duties in Jakarta Province,” said Sudirman, as quoted by Antara, on Monday, June 24, 2024. According to the former Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), Sohibul Iman has a wide network among professionals and businesspeople. Therefore, he believes Sohibul will quickly receive the necessary input. Additionally, Sudirman Said assesses that Sohibul is the right person to lead Jakarta because he will work with focus. So far, Sudirman has not seen any aspirations for Sohibul to advance to a higher political competition, such as the presidential election. Sudirman also reminds the public to choose gubernatorial candidates who genuinely want to manage Jakarta towards becoming a global city while addressing its complex problems. “I see Jakarta in an important transformation process. The next Jakarta governor must be 100 percent focused. Do not make Jakarta merely a political stage, especially a stepping stone to the 2029 presidential election,” stated the former spokesperson for Anies Baswedan.
Meanwhile, Esa Unggul University political communication analyst M. Jamiluddin Ritonga assesses that in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada, PKS will still form a coalition with the National Awakening Party (PKB) and the NasDem Party, which will likely propose Anies Baswedan. Added to that, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), which is interested in nominating Anies in the Jakarta Pilkada. However, another possibility might occur if the deputy gubernatorial position for Anies is not given to PKS. It is predicted that PKS will cross over to the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM), which will propose Ridwan Kamil. “PKS will hope to get the deputy gubernatorial position by joining KIM. If PKS is accepted by KIM, there is a possibility that Sohibul Iman will accompany Ridwan Kamil,” stated Jamil. “However, this possibility is very small if Kaesang Pangarep runs in the Jakarta Pilgub. KIM would certainly prefer Kaesang over Sohibul Iman as Ridwan Kamil’s running mate,” Jamil added. If that happens, according to Jamil, PKB and NasDem might join PDIP to propose Anies as gubernatorial candidate, with the deputy gubernatorial candidate from PDIP. “In the Jakarta Pilgub, it seems that there will be a confrontation between two coalitions. The Change Coalition plus PDIP will propose Anies and a PDIP cadre, while KIM is more likely to propose Ridwan Kamil-Kaesang,” said Jamil. “If this happens, PKS might end up empty-handed. PKS will have the possibility of not getting anything in the 2024 Jakarta Pilgub,” said the former Dean of FIKIM IISIP Jakarta.

Unexpectedly, the Islam-based party declared Mohamad Sohibul Iman as the Jakarta gubernatorial candidate, while two well-known names, Anies Baswedan and Ridwan Kamil, were frequently mentioned in the news. As the winning party in the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta, PKS feels entitled and well-positioned to propose its own cadre. “As the winning party (legislative elections) in Jakarta, PKS has decided to fight for its best cadre as the Jakarta gubernatorial candidate. The candidate we are nominating is Mohamad Sohibul Iman, who currently serves as the Deputy Chair of the PKS Syuro Council,” stated PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) Spokesperson Ahmad Mabruri on Sunday, June 23, 2024. “We have decided that we will propose Mohamad Sohibul Iman, former PKS President, former Deputy Speaker of the DPR RI, and former Rector of Paramadina University. With whom PKS and Mr. Sohibul Iman will pair, we will see based on the coalition composition that forms,” Mabruri added.
This places his name nearer to fighting in Jakarta. However, parties in the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM), such as Golkar, are still considering whether to advance Ridwan Kamil, alias RK, in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. One reason is his potential to secure the West Java Pilkada. Nevertheless, RK is considered the most potential candidate. Despite this, the environment remains very dynamic.
Regardless of these possible conferences, Hasto emphasized PDIP’s firm position pertaining to the 2024 Presidential Election. The party, symbolized by the white bull, will certainly wait and appreciate the recurring election conflict at the Constitutional Court. “Pertaining to the governmental political election, we are still awaiting the results from the Constitutional Court, so there are no issues with these meetings taking place,” he stated. “From an individual point of view, there is no problem in between Mr. Prabowo and Mrs. Megawati Soekarnoputri,” added Hasto.
