**Ma’ruf Amin Asks KPI to Reduce Hoax Spread Ahead of 2024 Pilkada** “KPI and KPID can provide education on the implementation and progress of the Pilkada through good, positive, and neutral broadcasts. This is important so that the public is protected from fake news (hoaxes),” stated Ma’ruf, as reported by Antara, on June 25, 2024. Ma’ruf also conveyed several points that need attention and follow-up from KPI and all broadcasting elements present at the event. He requested KPI to continue monitoring and supervising broadcasts by referring to the Broadcasting Code of Conduct (P3) and Broadcasting Program Standards (SPS).

Regarding the voter participation rate in the regional elections, Ummi said that the West Java KPU targets more than 75 percent participation. It is known that the total number of voters in West Java reaches 35-36 million voters.

Hadi emphasized that areas with potential conflicts must be anticipated before security disturbances occur. He delivered this message while giving directives at the Coordination Meeting for the 2024 Pilkada organizers in Makassar, South Sulawesi, on June 26, 2024.

On the other hand, with Sohibul Iman running, Adi also noted that PKS might be aiming to partner with Anies Baswedan. “At the same time, PKS is certainly preparing Sohibul Iman to potentially partner with Anies Baswedan. PKS is quite closely associated with Anies Baswedan. This seems to be PKS’s goal, not to lose momentum as the winner of the 2024 legislative elections in Jakarta and to ensure their cadre is proposed either as governor or deputy governor,” he explained.

This announcement was made 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, on Tuesday. “The PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) in its meeting on Thursday, June 20, 2024, has decided to endorse Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan as the prospective governor and Mr. Sohibul Iman as the prospective deputy governor,” stated Syaikhu. He explained that the decision by the PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) to nominate Anies and Sohibul Iman in the 2024 Jakarta Pilgub was based on the proposal from the PKS DKI Jakarta Regional Executive Board (DPW). “I have received a letter from the DPW DKI Jakarta structure that has nominated the DKI gubernatorial candidate to the DPP PKS, followed by the DKI deputy gubernatorial candidate to the DPP PKS, requesting approval and establishment of Mr. Anies Rasyid Baswedan and Mr. Mohammad Sohibul Iman as the gubernatorial and deputy gubernatorial candidates,” said Syaikhu.

Head of the West Java Provincial KPU, Ummi Wahyuni, stated that the simultaneous regional elections in West Java will cost around IDR 1.1 trillion. “The budget for the Pilkada in West Java is IDR 1.1 trillion,” she said.

The commencement of the Dompu Pilkada was officially started at the Launching Ceremony of the 2024 Dompu Regent and Deputy Regent Election, organized by the Dompu KPUD, on Saturday (25/5/2024) at the City Park, Regent’s Pavilion, after the Isya prayer.

Furthermore, Hadi asked for synergy from local governments in facilitating the organization of the 2024 Pilkada. Where the local government does not facilitate, the simultaneous Pilkada will certainly be disrupted. “Therefore, total synergy can ensure the successful implementation of the 2024 simultaneous Pilkada,” he stated. Hadi reminded the local governments to take strategic steps, including avoiding overlaps between central and local governments.

Additionally, he mentioned that the party also considered various inputs from figures, clerics, religious leaders, cross-sect leaders, scholars, and the public in Jakarta. “The main aspects considered were candidates with good leadership experience in both the executive and legislative branches, a proven track record, credibility, capacity, and a high probability of winning,” he said. Furthermore, Syaikhu believes that the Anies-Sohibul Iman pair is a good match.

According to Syaikhu, they complement each other for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. “Some have already coined the acronym AMAN (Anies-Sohibul Iman). Whatever the name, Anies-Sohibul Iman has the qualifications to complement each other and lead DKI Jakarta,” said Syaikhu.

**Anticipate Offers for PKS** Adi also sees this as PKS’s effort to anticipate offers from the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM), which is serious about proposing Ridwan Kamil for Jakarta. “At the same time, PKS is a political party highly sought after by other contestants to be their vice-candidate. For example, there was an offer from the KIM camp for PKS to be Ridwan Kamil’s running mate. In this context, PKS is deliberately nominating their cadre to anticipate serious offers to be Ridwan Kamil’s running mate,” he said.

**Prepare Alternatives** The PKS Central Executive Board (DPP) proposed PKS Deputy Chair of the Syuro Council Mohamad Sohibul Iman as a prospective gubernatorial candidate for the Special Capital Region of Jakarta in the 2024 Pilkada. Regarding this, political analyst Adi Prayitno sees this as a reasonable move. He noted that in addition to being a cadre party, PKS also has high voter support in Jakarta. “I think it is quite rational for PKS to propose their internal cadre, Sohibul Iman, to run in the Jakarta Pilgub. There are two reasons: first, PKS is a cadre party that has always put forward its cadres to compete in Pilkada, not only in Jakarta but also in other regions,” he stated to Liputan6.com on June 24, 2024. “The second reason is the significant increase in PKS’s legislative vote count in 2024, making them the highest vote-winner in Jakarta. These two variables explain why PKS nominated their internal cadre,” he continued.
