Anies Baswedan Calls for State to Stay Out of Nomination Process

by

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – The presidential candidate (Bacapres) from the Coalition for Change for Unity, Anies Baswedan requested that the state not interfere in the process of nominating someone. According to Anies, after 25 years of reform, people still feel pressured to implement democracy.

“Today, some of us feel that freedom is being suppressed. In the past, the state regulated who it was, who could run for legislative candidates, who could run for the presidential election, who could run for mayor of the regent, everything was regulated. Today there should be no regulation on who can run and who can’t run,” said Anies at the Tennis Indoor Senayan, Central Jakarta, Sunday, May 21, 2023.

Anies made this statement when meeting volunteers at the National Volunteers Gathering. The event was attended by thousands of Anies volunteers from various regions.

Anies’ remarks seemed to satirize President Joko Widodo or Jokowi who previously often provided support for a number of candidates to run for the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres). Jokowi often gave signals to the Vice Presidential Candidate from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle, Ganjar Pranowo, and the Presidential Vice President from the Gerindra Party, Prabowo Subianto.

While Anies himself is often referred to as a candidate that is not sanctioned by Jokowi. The smell of his being prevented from running for the presidential election erupted after the head of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Firli Bahuri reportedly forced the investigation into the alleged Formula E corruption case to go to the investigation stage.

Anies reminded about people’s sovereignty
