Currently, KIM consists of the Gerindra Party, Golkar Party, Gelora Party, National Mandate Party (PAN), and the Crescent Star Party (PBB). The five of them held a meeting to discuss winning programs and strategies.

At that meeting, KIM Prabowo Subianto's presidential candidate (candidate) admitted that he was preparing a winning team for the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres).
