Summary
It’s becoming more and more likely that President Widodo’s next vice presidential candidate will not come from a political party. As mentioned in a previous episode, some senior party members in the government coalition such as Golkar and PKB, have privately suggested it might be prudent to withhold party resources for Widodo’s reelection bid if they are not rewarded with the vice presidential seat or if not promised with a large number of cabinet seats as a substitute in the next administration if Widodo is reelected. A middle ground will need to be found between Widodo and his coalition parties when It comes to this VP candidate.
