Members of the Prosperous Justice Party say they may be willing to support Jakarta's incumbent governor, may be willing to support another party's candidate. In a move to form a new political alliance against incumbent Governor Basuki "Ahok" Tjahaja Purnama, the Prosperous Justice Party, or PKS, indicated that it would likely support businessman Sandiaga Uno, whom the Great Indonesian Movement Party, better known as Gerindra, has nominated as its candidate for the 2017 Jakarta gubernatorial election in  the Special Capital City District.
