Former TNI Commander Attends Bung Karno Month Celebration, Sparks Speculation on Vice Presidential Candidacy

Former TNI Commander Gen. (Purn) Mighty Andika attended the peak of the Bung Karno Month celebration (BBK) in Jakarta. The presence of Andika, according to PDIP, was due to his friendship with PDIP’s Ketum Megawati Soekarnoputri.

PDIP Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto confirmed Andika’s friendship with Megawati, stating that their relationship is very good. He also mentioned that Andika’s presence at the event was a positive thing and a response to their invitation.

Hasto also addressed the speculation of Andika being pushed as the PDIP winning team. He stated that for the winning team, PDIP is looking for someone who can unite and become a symbol of young people’s success. He further explained that once the vice presidential candidate is appointed, there will be a head of the winning team, along with Mas Prananda, Ms Puan Maharani, and the three current party leaders.

Regarding Andika’s chances of becoming a vice presidential candidate for Ganjar Pranowo, Hasto mentioned that it would be discussed together. He acknowledged Andika’s background as a retired TNI officer and his readiness to carry out duties for the nation and state. However, the decision on the vice presidential candidate will involve discussions and deliberations between political parties, taking into account the voice of the people and the suitability to continue President Jokowi’s leadership.

Andika Perkasa, in response to plans of joining the winning team for the 2024 PDIP presidential candidate Ganjar Pranowo, expressed his readiness if assigned. He mentioned that there is no decision yet and that he is waiting for further developments.

During the Bung Karno Month event, Andika wore a red batik, coincidentally matching the color of PDIP. He clarified that he did not have the opportunity to meet Megawati Soekarnoputri and Puan Maharani during the event.

In conclusion, Andika’s presence at the Bung Karno Month celebration highlights his friendship with Megawati Soekarnoputri. PDIP is considering him for the winning team and the possibility of becoming a vice presidential candidate for Ganjar Pranowo. Andika has expressed his readiness to contribute if assigned.
