The Secretary General of the Independent Election Monitoring Committee (KIPP) Indonesia, Kaka Suminta, urged the Central General Election Commission (KPU) to conduct strict oversight regarding the Regional Election in Kutai Kartanegara.

As a party that won 10 seats in the 2019 vote and eleven seats in the 2024 polls, PKS has a solid base and can propose a sole candidate pair for the mayoral office. Additionally, the Head of the PKS Bogor DPD, Trisnanto Atang, has been proposed as a mayor nominee in the 2024 regional election. “Of course, PKS has the capital and powerful stance to determine the mayoral candidate. Just wait, we are awaiting direction from the DPP. (Regarding my name being mentioned), yes, it has been noted, thank you for the support. We are certainly waiting for direction from the DPP. Whatever duty is assigned, we are ready, I must be ready,” said Atang on Sunday.

Budiman, a political observer from Mulawarman University (Unmul), stated that candidates running in the East Kalimantan Regional Election must be transparent. “Prospective regents in the East Kalimantan Regional Election must be transparent and free from money politics,” he remarked.

Kaka Suminta stressed that to avoid any suspicions of lobbying by prospective regent and deputy regent pairs related to administrative verification, the central KPU needs to intervene. “There needs to be supervision from the central KPU,” stated Kaka. He added that to prevent any underhanded dealings attempting to commit fraud in administrative verification, the central KPU must enforce strict oversight. “If pairs fail to pass administrative verification, they should not be allowed any opportunities that could undermine democracy,” he asserted.

Syaikhu mentioned that PKS needs to build communication with other political parties (parpol) including NasDem to meet the requirements for nominating a governor and deputy governor in the Jakarta Pilkada. “PKS realizes it cannot nominate a candidate alone in the Pilkada because the number of seats we have does not yet meet the requirement to nominate independently, we only have 18 seats, while the requirement is 22. So we still need 4 more seats,” he said. After NasDem, PKS will soon build communication with the Chairman of the National Awakening Party (PKB), Muhaimin Iskandar, or Cak Imin to build a coalition in the Jakarta Pilkada. “InsyAllah in the coming time I will also try to communicate with PKB, with Cak Imin,” he said.

Meanwhile, Sohibul Iman, according to Syaikhu, is a scholar. He stated that Sohibul also has an impressive track record in government. “Mr. Sohibul Iman is a technocrat, also a scholar who was once the rector of Paramadina University. He has experience in the legislature as Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives (DPR RI) for the 2013-2014 period and was once the president of PKS for the 2015-2020 period,” explained Syaikhu. Syaikhu stated that PKS is a cadre party that has a mandate to carry out political cadre regeneration and leadership regeneration. Therefore, he stated, in this simultaneous Pilkada 2024, the party will nominate its cadre to run as a regional head candidate. “Especially in the base areas where PKS is the winning party or has a majority of DPRD seats. PKS will strive to nominate its own cadre as a candidate,” stated Syaikhu.

The ceremonial Pilkada launch was graced by the presence of Forkopimda members, political party leaders, election organizers and supervisors, as well as religious and community leaders. Head of Dompu KPUD Arif Rahman, in his speech, said that this year’s Dompu Pilkada is based on the spirit of local wisdom, namely Manggini, Manggari, Mataroa. Arif explained that the spirit of Manggini has a philosophical meaning, a quality Pilkada process prioritizing integrity. Then, Manggari means that the community faces the Pilkada with joy. And the philosophical meaning of Mataroa is that the result of the Pilkada ensures the sovereignty of the people.

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 regional elections in West Java is IDR 1.1 trillion,” she said.

Regarding the voter participation rate in the regional elections, Ummi said that the West Java KPU targets more than 75 percent participation. The total number of voters in West Java is estimated to be around 35-36 million.

Of this number, about 43 percent are first-time voters. “There are definitely challenges because West Java has the largest number of voters, approximately 35 million. Besides managing the number of voters, we also have to manage the vast area of West Java. Although we have 27 regencies and cities, which is slightly fewer than East Java and Central Java, the vast area of West Java is a challenge,” said Ummi.

PKS: 2 Coalitions in Jakarta Pilkada More Attractive, Higher Winning Chances PKS Spokesperson Pipin Sopian stated that the party prefers two coalitions for the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election. This is because the chances of winning are greater as the election will not go to two rounds. “Yes, actually, 2 coalitions or 3 coalitions are interesting. For us, 2 coalitions are more attractive, the chances of our candidate winning are greater. If there are 3 coalitions, it might go to 2 rounds, we also calculate that,” stated Pipin at the Sahid Hotel, Jakarta, on Monday. Pipin mentioned that the opportunity to form a new coalition for the Jakarta gubernatorial election is still open. However, this needs to be discussed with other political parties. “All opportunities exist, well, I think we are only 1 party out of several parties, so we certainly have to talk together,” he said.
