Mahfud Rejects PKS Offer to Become Anies' Vice Presidential Candidate The Coordinating Minister for Politics, Law and Security (Menko Polhukam) Mahfud MD revealed that he had been offered the vice presidential candidate (cawapres) for the presidential candidate (candidate) Anies Baswedan.  However, the offer made by the President of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) Ahmad Syaikhu was rejected.  Mahfud said the offer was made when Ahmad Syaikhu and PKS politician Al Muzzammil Yusuf came to his house.  The arrival was intended to explore the search for a vice presidential candidate for Anies which was carried out by PKS some time ago.  "Pak Syaikhu, when he went home with Al Muzzammil, he explored to find Anies' vice president. Among other things, asking, 'Pak Mahfud are you ready or not?'," Mahfud said, imitating Ahmad Syaikhu's words while giving a statement to journalists at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, Monday (5/6/2023).  "
