Jakarta – Jazuli Juwaini, the chairman of the Prosperous Justice Party, or PKS, said on Thursday (23/03) that every member of the PKS faction at the House of Representatives has been tasked to ensure victory for Jakarta gubernatorial candidate Anies Baswedan and his running mate Sandiaga Uno in the run-off election on April 19.

PKS is one of Anies and Sandiaga's backers along with the Great Indonesia Movement (Gerindra) Party. "There is no other option for us but winning," Jazuli said after a meeting with PKS members on Thursday.

The House of Representatives' Commission I member said the faction's chairman had declared that every member should collect a minimum of Rp 5 million ($375) in donation to be spent on Anies and Sandiaga's campaign.

"We have 40 members in the House faction and we've divided them up to work in the five election areas in Jakarta," Jazuli said. "We will be all out working until April 19," Jazuli said.
