Suherman, with his long experience in bureaucracy, is seen as the ideal candidate to build Majalengka. This was expressed by Political Commentator from Bandung Islamic University, Fuady M. E.. He said that Majalengka Sekda Eman Suherman holds very valuable assets to contest Majalengka regent. According to him, the opportunity for Eman of being voted in as the next Regent of Majalengka are very possible. “This can be a very important resource because experience is priceless,” said M. E. Fuady in a written statement, June 9, 2024. According to him, there is a transition in dynamics in the 2024 local elections. M. E. Fuady said that sitting officials are currently not being strongly preferred by Indonesian society. In contrast, he said, candidates from the bureaucracy, like Sekda, are adding a fresh dynamic in the country. “I see that in various regions, many administrative heads are contesting. This demonstrates that they know exactly how to manage public administration and good corporate governance (GCG),” explained Fuady.

Track Record M. E. Fuady described that Eman’s track record in the Majalengka administrative system has indeed been established. He highlighted one of Eman’s initiatives was initiating the Rutilahu (Decent Housing Program) in cooperation with Majalengka Scouts and Baznas. “Not only that, Suherman also focuses significantly to the younger generation in Majalengka. His attention to the younger generation is directed through real efforts such as the revitalization of the Warung Jambu Stadium, the pride of Majalengka residents,” stated Muhammad Fuady. Therefore, Fuady thinks that Eman Suherman is the regent candidate who comprehends the needs of the Majalengka community the best. Moreover, he said, Eman Suherman, who is also a local native, is the most preferred prospective regent in the 2024 Majalengka Pilkada. “They are also usually hometown individuals and are adept at communicating with the electorate in their respective regions or the community in their areas,” clarified Fuady.

“We thank the friends from the North Sumatra DPD for the request. But the decision is not up to us,” said Ahok during the 5th PDIP National Working Meeting (Rakernas) at Beach City International Stadium, Ancol, North Jakarta, Saturday (25/5/2024).

As per Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Chairman of the Daily Board of the Gerindra Party, this idea is considered by his party as merely an aspiration. “Yes, what we have is just a discussion in the media, and we consider it just an aspiration and it has not reached the level of party talks within the Advanced Indonesia Coalition,” said Dasco at Rumah Kertanegara, South Jakarta, on Friday, (June 7, 2024). Meanwhile, Kaesang stated that the decision regarding his candidacy for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada will be made in August. “As I have said before, wait for the surprise in August,” said Kaesang at the PSI Office in Jakarta, on Friday (June 7, 2024). He hinted that there is a surprise about whether he will run in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. The youngest child of President Jokowi asked everyone to be patient as the registration for the pairs for governor and deputy governor through political parties will begin from August 27 to August 29, 2024. “The registration is still far off, it is still in August, late August. Be patient,” he stated, as quoted by Antara. Previously, on Wednesday, May 29, 2024, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Chairman of the Daily Board of the Gerindra Party, posted a photo of Budisatrio Djiwandono alongside Kaesang Pangarep on his personal Instagram account @sufmi_dasco, with the caption “For Jakarta 2024.” Besides posting Budisatrio with Kaesang, Dasco also posted a photo of Budisatrio with public figure Raffi Ahmad similar to a duo election poster on his personal Instagram. On Thursday, April 18, 2024, Ahmad Muzani, the Secretary-General of the Gerindra Party, stated that the candidate being prepared for the Jakarta Pilkada is still being finalized. The Gerindra Party has several young candidates, including Budisatrio Djiwandono and Moreno Soeprapto. “We have a strong candidate, especially a fresh and young figure,” he mentioned at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta. Alleged Prohibition by Jokowi, Kaesang Pangarep: That’s Mr. Zulhas’s Version of the Story The Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, also responded the claim that he was prohibited by President Jokowi from running in the Jakarta Pilkada. As per Kaesang, that version belongs to the Chairman of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, alias Zulhas. “That’s Mr. Zulhas’s version of the story,” he said. He then turned the question back to the media. “So, have you listened to my side of the story yet?” asked Kaesang. Upon hearing this, a number of journalists requested him to elaborate, but Kaesang chose to decline. “It’s a confidential,” concluded Kaesang before leaving. Previously, Head of the National Mandate Party (PAN), Zulkifli Hasan, stated that President Jokowi prohibited his youngest son, Kaesang Pangarep, from running for the Jakarta gubernatorial election. “Earlier, I asked the President after the meeting. ‘Sir, what about Kaesang running for Jakarta deputy governor?’ ‘Oh no,’ he said, ‘Don’t do it, Mr. Zul,'” Zulkifli Hasan said at the PAN DPP, South Jakarta, on Monday, (June 3, 2024). Zulkifli Hasan previously suggested that Kaesang pair up with Zita Anjani in the Jakarta Pilkada because he wanted Jakarta to be led by young people. “Kaesang is young, I even proposed it before, ‘Sir, I proposed it a year ago, what if Jakarta is led by young people, Kaesang.’ That was about a year ago, if I’m not mistaken,” he said. Although the Supreme Court (MA) has changed the age limit for regional head candidates, providing Kaesang the opportunity to run for the Jakarta gubernatorial election, Jokowi still forbade it. “‘Now it’s permissible, Sir.’ I said earlier, yes, then who was the one who challenged it, right. Now it’s allowed, it was challenged. ‘Don’t do it, Mr. Zul,’ that’s about it,” he concluded. PSI Secretary-General Says No Internal Discussion Yet About Kaesang Running for 2024 Pilkada Head of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), Kaesang Pangarep, has the potential to run as a gubernatorial candidate after the Supreme Court (MA) issued a regulation concerning the age of regional head candidates. However, there hasn’t been any decision from Kaesang on whether he will run for regional head. Kaesang has been speculated to participate in the Jakarta gubernatorial election after his poster appeared alongside Gerindra politician and Prabowo’s nephew, Budi Djiwandono. The Secretary-General of PSI, Raja Juli Antoni, revealed that there has been no internal discussion concerning the youngest son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) running in the 2024 Pilkada. “No (internal discussion yet),” stated Antoni at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, on Monday (June 3, 2024). Antoni mentioned that whether Kaesang will run this year depends on Kaesang himself. Furthermore, the coalition parties of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) need to deliberate whether it is beneficial for Kaesang to run in the Pilkada or not. “Ask Mas Kaesang,” he mentioned. “It depends on Mas Kaesang and KIM what’s best,” remarked Antoni. **2024 Pilkada Schedule** Here is the schedule for the 2024 Pilkada stages: 1.
