A constitutional law expert from UNS, Agus Riwanto, disagrees with the assertion that Article 18 Paragraph (3) of PKPU Number 19 of 2023 was specifically designed to accommodate Gibran Rakabuming Raka. The regulation, PKPU 19/2023, was formulated well before the 2024 Presidential Election candidate nominations began, according to Riwanto. This claim challenges the prevailing belief that the provision was tailored to address Gibran's eligibility. Riwanto believes it is an error to assume a direct connection between the article’s creation and Gibran's candidacy. Earlier statements from Denny Indrayana highlighted this perceived misinterpretation of the regulation’s timeline and purpose. The expert's opinion potentially alters the narrative surrounding the controversial article within the Indonesian political landscape. This challenges assumptions about the intentions behind creating PKPU 19/2023.
